Royal Enfield Himalayan

The Royal Enfield Himalayan is a fairly new bike to the adventure scene and as yet fairly unproven.

The reason I am considering this bike is mainly due to it’s low seat height. Not being blessed in the leg department, getting my feet down flat for off-roading is an important consideration.

The Himalayan is a 411cc adventure bike weighing in at around 200KG, so it’s not light by any means and probably one of the heaviest 400cc bikes around.

Reliability is a big concern with this bike as it’s still fairly new to the adventure scene and as yet unproven.

If you own a Himalayan please do leave me a comment below detailing your experience so far as it would be great to hear from people who are actually riding the bike.

I’m hoping to get one for a day to see how it performs, just need to find a dealer willing to let me try one for a day, any offers?
