    Owning and riding multiple motorcycles is a luxury that few can afford and even fewer can truly enjoy. If the Himalayan is on your shopping list, it’s quite likely that it’s going to be your only motorcycle. And as an only motorcycle, it’s as close to perfect as you can get in this price range -- or even a few rungs higher, for that matter. This really is the Swiss Army Knife of motorcycles -- a capable, versatile, one-size-fits-all motorcycle. Need something to ferry you to the office and back? No problem. Want to cruise the highways on weekends? It’ll do it all day and all night long. It’ll even keep you entertained on the twisty bits of tarmac you’ll find on the way. Short of hooning about on track, this is the one motorcycle that’ll do pretty much any and everything you ask of it, without protest or complaint. Thankfully, even when viewed in isolation, the Himalayan BS6 is a well-rounded package which is now just that little bit better than before. It’s a nice motorcycle to tour the country on, and even if you don’t actually do so, it makes you look like the sort of person who does so with regularity. Do take a test ride in order to get better clarity. Check out authorised dealership details.

    Yes the majority of the faults are fixed or there’s a workaround. Steering head bearing are still a concern but Hitchcocks uk have a quality bearing replacement part available to order on line.

  • My Royal Enfield Himalayan Adventure

    Royal Enfield’s Himalayan has been my steadfast companion on many adventures throughout the rugged terrains of India. Its 411cc engine, producing 24 bhp and 32 Nm of torque, is robust for off roading and smooth enough for highway rides. The bike's higher ground clearance and off road tires have allowed me to explore places I never thought I would ride a bike through.The Himalayan is equipped with a compass and a gear indicator, enhancing its utility as a true adventurer’s ride.

  • Impressive off roader

    The gearshift is very good and can easily crusie this bike on the 100 to 120 kmph of speed without any problem and get very comfortable seating position. I can go with bike for many hours and is comes with dual disc and dual channel ABS and the brakes are good. On the road it feels very very stable but off the road the suspension feels stiffer side and is very stable and off road it performs fantastic and the mileage is around 25 to 30 which is very good with this heavy and powerful bike.

    Great Bike

    Hi I'm Rohith from Bangalore I own Royal Enfield Himalayan 411 since it's been 3 years I haven't faced any major issues on the bike. The bike is absolutely great it's a 31in 1 motorcycle ADV, TOURER, OFF-ROADING machine it can do all 3 in all the the terrains but it's not a complete1off-roading machine if you want enjoy the dead off-road then you should go with Xpulse 200 alternatively. So1mileage wise I get 25 in city usage and 35-38 in between on highway runs again the counter part is that1mileage is based on how you rev you're engine and how you maintain your bike that plays the major role.1Talking about seat comfort man it's literally awesome you don't feel pain in your back nor bum the seats are1well cushioned the fabrics are literally great. Coming back to suspension the front suspension is long travel1suspension but it's little bit hard and the rear suspension is mono-shock it does the job well. Talking about1the power this bike can easily do 125-130 top speed in highway run if you're capable of doing more then, max to max 138-140 will be the final push. If you have more queries feel free to message me over Instagram my Instagram handle1is @heyrohithofficial thanks ride safe
