Dominar Creates History by becoming the first Indian motorcycle to successfully complete the Polar Odyssey with no back up van or help apart from minor BOLT ON modifications

The Bajaj Dominar has created history yet again by becoming the first Indian motorcycle to successfully complete the Polar Odyssey – a ride from Arctic to Antarctic. Spanning 99 days, the Dominar Polar Odyssey covered the length and breadth of North and South America commencing from Anchorage to Tuktoyaktuk in the Arctic Circle and then all the way down to the end of the world at Ushuaia in Argentina, and then further in to the Antarctic! The entire Dominar Polar Odyssey was completed without any breakdown, with no dedicated service support or back-up team across all kinds of terrain, climate and conditions.

– The grueling journey covered 3 continents – North America, South America and the Antarctic, and 15 countries:

o Canada, USA, Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Chile and Argentina.

– The riders and the machines tamed some of the harshest weather conditions:

o Heavy snow, rains and slush and loose gravel across Alaska

o Snow blizzard at the top of Pikes Peak, Colorado

o Trails and off-road sections of Baja California, Mexico

o – 22 °C temperature in Antarctic, to +54 °C in Death Valley, USA – the hottest place on Earth

– Some of the most dangerous roads in the world conquered by the Dominars:

o The James Dalton Highway – Arctic Circle, USA

o The Dempster Highway – Arctic Circle, Canada

o The Pan-American section of the Atacama Desert, Chile

o The Death Road of Bolivia
