Bajaj Auto’s most powerful motorcycle, the Dominar 400, was launched last week and prospective customers were given the option to book it online. Within days “heavy online enquiries related to the Dominar 400 disrupted the Bajaj Auto website on December 15 leading it to crash,” the company said in a statement on Tuesday. If the site crash is anything to go by, Bajaj would have to quickly ramp up production to meet deliveries commencing January 2017, the statement added.
