Modified and re-christened Lino, the motorcycle does retain original components from Bajaj. The custom builders have added design elements giving the motorcycle a completely different, almost neo-scramber/ street fighter hybrid look.

His decision to buy a Dominar 400 was influenced by the need for a daily commuter. In addition, he wanted a modern-classic looking motorcycle as a tribute to his father, who was a motorcyclist himself.

The company recently gave the Dominar 400 a BS6 upgrade, and has also launched a Dominar 250cc model recently. Built on a versatile platform, the motorcycle features a 248cc single-cylinder engine that has been borrowed from the KTM Duke 250, albeit in a different state of tuning.

Thoughts About The Modified Bajaj Dominar 400

While we are fans of most motorcycle mods, we think this one tries too hard to look like one of the many motorcycles featured in the Mission Impossible film series. The motorcycle does look modern-classic, and while we're sure that Mr Junio is thrilled, we think more mods could have been made to the motorcycle.
