            Dominar 400
            Bought and experienced, its recommend to buy this bike for long commute. You can feel the raw power same as duke 390 and more rigid to control. Hill rides, terrain rides its recommended. Rider has comfortable and pillion rider doesn't have comfort they have to improve 💯 . Proper service and checkups will ensure bike's longevity.

            Best in performance and style
            Best in performance and style on this segment But most of drawback is millage and weight on compitators like Duke and rc 400 Handling is even difficult to compare with previous model of 2017. Additional futures extra fitting are looks good for long drive but for city use its looks like additional settings 🤣

            KTM RC 125 is only for the younger generation
            KTM RC 125 is giving a lot of issues and a very rough running sound is produced. It is very good looking bike. Its fuel cost is quite high. So most of the people especially those from the middle class have not purchased the bike. It’s not possible to ride this bike in muddy water in a village. It can carry only two persons. This bike is only for the younger generation in contemporary society.

            Elegant design and sporty appearance
            KTM RC 125 is an astonishing bike which provides lots of joy in riding. I have been using this bike for few months now and I must say I am impressed. The first thing that I was fascinated with was the elegant design and sporty appearance of the bike. The 125cc engine is like a tiger that roars with great acceleration and top speed ideal for commuting and long driving. The seat as well is nice and offers good comfort for long rides, thus, there is a limit to the distance one can ride using the bike.
