The stance has been inspired from a lion stalking its prey. The head translates to the LED headlamp which gets Auto Headlamp On (AHO) feature while the seat and the fuel tank resemble the back of a lion, and rounding off the essence is the short exhaust and LED taillamps which form the tail. The Bajaj Dominar 400 gets a premium three coat, chip resistant paint with a deep gloss finish.

Made of precision pressed high strength steel, the frame of the Bajaj Dominar 400 provides the bike with the lowest possible centre of gravity along with torsional rigidity and lateral strength. Coupled to the frame are a 43 mm hydraulically damped forks up front and a 77 mm diameter dual spring mono shock in the rear.
