Q. Battery issue in RE Himalayan BS4 if I don’t start my bike for more than 3 days. The battery level come to
low.
- This is a major concern in the Royal Enfield Himalayan! Royal Enfield sold me this bike that had to be taken to the service center every alternate month in the first 6 months. The brand changed a part worth 11K, for which they did not give me any details. Post 6 months in Jan 2020, the bike's battery completely drained out when not used for about 20-25 days. The problem has been there in the bike ever since. If the bike is not ridden for even 12-15 days, the battery drains out and the bike won't start. In the lock down situation, where I can not ride bike on an everyday basis the bike has gone to service center atleast 6-7 times in the last 1.5 years. Again the service teams do not tell me what work is being done on the bike and send the bike back after 5-6 days. AND!! I face the same problem in another 10-15 days, if I don't ride it.The brand is blaming this problem on me stating that the issue is due usage and storage patter.I want to understand that if this problem exists in all Royal Enfield Himalayans out there? Does all your battery completely drains out if not used for 10-12 days?Also since the first week of buying the bike's engine goes off while riding. Have been in bad spots on road due to this issue. The brand is not able to find a fix for this either.The bike is called a Himalayhan but can not withstand Bangalore weather for 10 days..
- This is the most frustrating experience. KEEP THE BIKE IDLE FOR 3-4 DAYS AND THE BATTRY DRAINS!!! bloody i have had 4 bikes before this and never faced this issue even during extreme winters..in last one year i have already take the bike to the service center for the battery issue almost 5-6 times.
