Royal Enfield Himalayan [2015-2023] Price in Basirhat

The buying experience was just normal, nothing overwhelming. Waited for four months after booking my himalayan. I have ridden over 20000 kilometers and it always put a smile on my face. Himalayan has its own charm, it's a conversation starter. I have taken my Himalayan to the mountains to the beach to the plateau, cruised on highways, ridden on dusty roads, and muddy roads, and ridden on rains, it has never disappointed me. It definitely feels like a big bike. The seat is cushiony. The suspension and shockers both are soft but accurate when riding at 100+kmph. The handlebar is wide and it helps to maintain good posture so that you can ride long without breaking. The engine can run all day long without any issues. The road presence of this bike is superb. You can do an unlimited number of modifications. I named my bike pokkhiraaj. Maintenance is a big part of a bike of its size. There are some parts from re which are never any good and even the service center guys accept that. The bike never looks old. About the cons of Himalayan - the cone set or the ball racer will definitely be going to be damaged pretty soon. I've switched to the ntn bearing for the cone set and it's 10 times better than re. The stock ceat tyres are useless. I had ridden over 11500 km on the stock and received at least 3 punctures avg on every 1000 kms. Currently using the mrf mogrip and it's much much better, with no puncture till now. On a long trip, the bike definitely wants the tubeless spoke wheels and the rider feels the need for it but eventually it'll add more cost.

About the Reviewer

Perfect bike for touring and tall people. Bike is very heavy. Very stable on road. And feels great. Best for on road and off road both.
Few following things i felt royal enfield would have consider (improve)
1. Led light is not there.
2. Horn is very ordinary based on the personality of the bike.
3. No headlight grill.
4. Both the disk brake are not that punchy as ktm bike.
5. When you accelerate above 4000 rpm. The engine will develop bad noise. Due to that reason you will loose your confidence on highway.

About the Reviewer

Excellent in every aspect.. but the only con is headlight visibility..it may be better rather than it is best mechine for any road. It is still distinguished from other bikes running on Indian roads not only in looks but also in its performance. Service and maintenance are quite low in this segment.
