Himalayan 450 Negatives Points: Not the smoothest engine,features could have been more easy to use,tubeless spoke wheels are yet to come
Zigwheels Expert's Conclusion : The new Royal Enfield Himalayan is like a trusty buddy, always there for you. It's easy to handle, forgiving, and good for riding on roads or no roads. It's hard not to appreciate how it keeps things simple, just like the first Himalayan.

Here are my thoughts on the upcoming royal enfield himalayan 450 motorcycle: overall features and stylingfrom what i've seen so far, The himalayan 450 retains the rugged, Adventurous styling of the current himalayan 411 but with some nice upgrades.The exposed frame and off-road oriented design are still there, But the 450 adds some sharper lines and a more muscular fuel tank for a modern look.Some key features include switchable abs, A tripper navigation pod, And an lcd display with turn-by-turn navigation.These are great features for an adventure touring bike.The styling strikes a good balance between rugged and refined.Expectationsi'm expecting the 450cc engine to provide a noticeable power bump over the 411cc motor in the current himalayan - perhaps around 30hp.This should make cruising at highway speeds more relaxed while still delivering excellent low-end torque for off-road riding.The weight is also reportedly lower, Which should improve handling.Overall, The 450 looks like a nicely improved evolution of the proven himalayan platform.My expectations are high for a more powerful, Lighter and feature-rich middleweight adventure tourer.Likelihood of purchasei'd say there's a good chance i'll seriously consider purchasing the himalayan 450 when it becomes available.It hits a real sweet spot in terms of power, Capability and price.The addition of navigation, Abs and other features make it an even more well-rounded package.As an experienced adventure rider currently without a middleweight tourer in my garage, The royal enfield ticks a lot of boxes for my needs and budget.Unless reviews reveal any major flaws, I could see myself purchasing a himalayan 450 in the future as my main adventure touring motorcycle.It looks like an excellent value proposition in the segment.

Awesome Bike
The Enfield Himalayan is an outstanding bike, known for its light and easy-to-ride nature. The convenience of the self-starter eliminates the need for kick-starting, and the effective side stand makes parking effortless. The digital central console is user-friendly and easy to read. While designed primarily for off-road applications, its ride handling on city roads is commendable. The bike's rugged and distinctive appearance adds to its appeal, and the engine springs to life effortlessly with the self-start button. Smooth and easy gear shifts enhance the overall riding experience. The Himalayan is not only easy to handle but also versatile, suitable for both city commuting and off-road adventures. Although yet to be taken on the highway for off-road travel, it stands out as a great bike that excels in both urban and adventurous settings.Royal Enfield has successfully delivered a winner in this segment, offering an affordable option that is truly impressive. A potential owner myself, I am drawn to its overall greatness.

Fantastic machine
Its a fantastic machine from royal enfield.I had a re himalayan 411cc and its one of the most affordable adventure bike in india.The servicing cost is merely around 1.5k to 3k which is value of money and even spares are less costly compared to other adv motorcycles available of other brands.Eagerly looking for the launch of this much anticipated and eagerly awaited adv from re with all new engine and loads of new equipment's like inverted forks, Liquid cooled engine, Round and fully digital instrumentation console / odometer, Cruise control just a few to name.I am sure this adv will be a superb machine from re stable which will take adventure junkies to a new and next level for sure.As soon as its launched, Have the plan to get one at the earliest.Thank you.Regards, Shivraj - 911****717.

Royal enfield bs4 himalayan gives around 30 mileage not exactly 30 slightly up or down.After 25k kms on your himalayan your chains pocket clutch plates etc.Will start giving you issues.

I recently had a chance to
I recently had a chance to experience the himalayan 450.One of the standout features of this motorcycle is its robust build.It has strong off-roading capabilities.The engine delivers a steady increase in the performance and the torque is well balanced.A highlight for me about this bike is the height adjustability.I feel it stands best in its class as an adventure tourer.The switch gear could have been upgraded, As it still carries the meteor switch gear design.
