QUICK COMPARO
KTM Duke 390 Vs Bajaj Dominar 400
India seems to be a market which has seen a massive spike in the growth of sub-500cc motorcycle segment. The Indian motorcycle enthusiasts warm heartedly welcomed KTM's pocket rocket, the Duke 390.
Now the company that owns the Austrian marque, Bajaj, has launched its sports tourer, the Dominar 400, which has many resemblances with its counterpart.
Engine
Both the siblings share the same powerplant, a 373.2cc single cylinder motor but Bajaj has detuned the engine to produce only 34.5bhp. We know that the Dominar falls under the ‘sports tourer' segment but around 9bhp gap is huge.
Design
2017 KTM Duke 390: The new Duke 390 borrows a few styling cues from its larger sibling the 1290 SuperDuke R including the split LED headlamps and the sculpted tank's cowling which extends forward in a similar fashion to give the motorcycle a very aerodynamic look.
Bajaj Dominar 400: The Bajaj Dominar 400 on the other hand is designed with one task in mind, cruising and its muscular fuel tank and the LED headlight up front give it a very butch look. At the rear, the Dominar twin LED tail lights which have become a signature design cue for Bajaj's performance motorcycles.
Features
The biggest difference between the Bajaj Dominar 400 and the new KTM Duke 390 is the instrument cluster. While the Dominar 400's dual displays are more focused on the riding experience, the KTM offers hands-free connectivity and music controls.
However, both the motorcycles share a lot in common including a dual-channel ABS and the slipper clutch.
