Q. Himalayan or Classic 350, which has the best pillion comfortable seat?
  • Both bikes have really good rider and pilloin comfort . HIMALAYAN's seat is a bit higher then classic 350 seat . Pillion can feel a little trouble while taking his position but during Ride the soft seat material helps a lot for both rider and pilloin . Classic 350 seat is quite wider than Himalayan also a little more comfortable . So in my opinion , both bikes have rea good comfort level but if I have to choose between classic and Himalayan than I'll go with classic 350 . Just a little bit of difference, not too much .
  • No doubt the Himalayan. The pillion sits higher and the pegs are not rear set. The gel seat helps too.
  • Himalayan is more than comfort between the 350

Q. I am Planning to buy Royal Enfield Himalayan but i am afraid of maintenance cost and spare part or Shall i buy bullet Standard?
  • Bother the bikes are from the house of Royal Enfield and bother are good bikes. You decide your purpose of buying the bike. If you need it for Daily commuting go for Bullet 350 and if you frequently go for adventure riding go for Himalayan. Himalayan is not made for daily commuting and is purely built for Adv riding purpose.
  • Both are diff journo bike ... you cannot compare the maintenance cost ... defiantly Himalayan will be higher as it is double the rate of standard so definitely the parts used are of high quality compare to standard and also do note Himalayan bike service comes every 5000 kms
  • Bullet standard is ever green bike but thunderbird is also a best bike of royal enfield. himalayan have so many problems like heating, handle, suspension winshield, etc. so i prefered thunder bird 350 is best option
