Great ease of riding.Elegant lookan awesome performance. The bike also gets better mileage compared to contemporary bikes. Overall the riding experience with my friend to a hill station was amazing.

The Himalayan is easily the most anticipated motorcycle from Royal Enfield given its positioning as an adventure touring motorcycle. The Himalayan does make a lot of sense in that regard and Royal Enfield The brand needs no introduction to anyone who rides a motorcycle in the country Great, all should go for this bike. It looks good body is not bulky like other bikes. It is easy to ride on all roads it's really comfortable for long-distance rides and for daily commuters. It has great mileage on roads low maintenance and is less noisy.

Since 16th December 2021, till now I have covered 30900+ km with Royal Enfield Himalayan bs6 pine green.I am keeping this bike as much healthier as I can. I made a 1000 km ride in a day about 6 times. I rode this bike for more than 300 km nonstop (one petrol bunk to the next) running consistently at 80-90-100 range at noon-afternoon at high temperatures, with panniers top box pillion, it didn’t break down.What I find PROS & CONS after riding more than 30000 km, I can clearly tell that:a) Initial or low-end to midrange torque is very good to escape from stickiest situations in offroads or no roads.b) The bike is heavy at very low speeds, other than that it is fun to ride a motorcycle with very neutral handling.c) Rider’s Triangle is very comfortable though stock seats are very soft and often get uncomfortable after 250-300 km, so either you need to take a bum break or stand up on footpegs.d) Front brakes are dull in both feedback & bite, so replacing them with Yamaha R15 V3’s front disk pads (costs around 450/-, stock 250/-) will improve the braking performance a lot better.e) Rear brakes are good, not better or better.f) Rear suspension is a little stiff if you compare it with the BMW 310GS or Hero Xpulse 200, but better than the KTM 390 Adventure.g) Front suspension is very good, if you stand up in footpegs, then best, because your weight comes at your hands so more loads on the front suspension to work.h) Quality of components is improving, not like earlier, failure rates are very low. I only got stuck at once because my clutch cable snapped but luckily I always carry a spare one, because I come from a Yamaha R15 v2.0 family, which clutch cables are prone to snapping.i) The engine is stock. The clutch is stock. Battery is stock. The Chain Sprocket is still in stock.j) I replaced only one Cone Set, one Front Tyre, and one Rear Tyre.k) I serviced the Rear Suspension and bushes at home and after that, it is fine, with no sounds from the rear suspension.l) I am using Motul 7100 10W50 2Litre at an interval of 5000 km.k) Stock Fuel Pump Relay is a culprit. Change it to RE and make 5pin relay (white/light gray color), it will not give low-speed stalling problems.l) Try to use Indian Oil CoCo pumps or Shell pumps, the rest all give bad fueling to the bike and the bike suffers a lot to ride.m) Avoid water jet wash as much as possible and try to wash it with a mug, because the water will residue inside the Speedometer making it foggy.n) Use Liqui Moly Fuel System Cleaner in each 3000 km, it will take care of the bike’s fuel injector & fuel pump filter.o) The Stock Handle is of mild steel so after a drop it will bend for sure, so you can install an AOM handlebar.p) Grease the clutch cable frequently to make it soft and less prone to snap.q) The gearbox is clunky but if you set the clutch free play just right, put gear oil/wd40 at the gear shifter, and use fully synthetic engine oil, it will not be clunky.r) Stock Ceat Gripp xl tires are good, but changing to MRF Mogrip Meteor will give more mileage as well as tire life.s) Avoid putting a load on the battery with auxiliary lights etc. (without putting any relay or wiring harness), it will drop the bike’s performance drastically due to less current flow to the fuel pump or injector.t) Replace fork oil at each interval of 25000 km for more efficient front suspension travel.I think these things will help you to understand your bike better and connect to your bike.Till then! Chao…

Overall, a good bike for all-purpose use provides a better riding experience with a good road presence.Perfect bike for long drives with good power and initial torque, as well as good comfort seats for the rider, pillion seat is a little small. Provide confidence for riders, allowing you to take them anywhere.

The buying experience was almost hassle-free up to the bike's delivery time. The riding posture is very comfortable with the suspension being soft for Indian roads. The bike is a head-turner and has a pretty good performance-to-weight ratio. Servicing is apt as per the Royal Enfield showroom instructions. The maintenance is a bit on the higher end but that is what Royal Enfield bikes are known for.

My 1st bike at the age of 26 with own money.
1 year ago
Jaya Krishna
I booked a bike on Dec 31st 2021 and got the bike on April 6th, 2022, I have lake blue himalayan, the buying experience was better but not as good. My 1st ride is with mom, she felt comfortable as a pillion, and till date, I drove 4.5k km. Lake blue color grasps attention in the crowd but maintaining it is a bit difficult so I did ppf on the tank. In city, I am getting 27kmpl and on highways, I am getting 34kmpl. Performance can be better but at this price range we have other options but still, those who love re will go for this only, on highways I cruise on 100, sometimes 120 as well, and after reaching 100 there is vibration on the handle & near the tank but its manageable. When it comes to service I did my 1st service in chittoor(ap), technicians are pathetic they don't know anything, my himalayan i am unable to disengage abs, I have taken a bike multiple times but no one responded till now so I am planning to do 2nd service in bnglr, maintenance is a bit easy for himalayan, always look after tyre pressure and use chain lube for every 500 km. No need to mention the heating issue in bump-to-bump traffic it's horrible, every time you need to have shoes. The weight of the bike doesn't issue, you just need to get used to it and everyone knows the build quality of re bikes so no need to discuss abt it. Pros: 1. Riding/seat comfort.2. Ground clearance.3. Off-road capability.4. Maneuverability.Cons:1. Headlights are pathetic, with these lights we can't ride at night.2. Of course heating issue.3. Tube tires.4. Brakes are ok but need a lot of improvement.

Himalayan - The tourer
2 years ago
Tharun
After 1 year of ownership - this bike is a pure tourer. Initial torque is it's up. If you take care of it, it will take care of you. 70-90 km/h is the most enjoyable. Lot's of customizable options.Some cons are, city rides could be a bit miserable - considering it's weight and engine heat. Pillion comfort is not up to the mark. Built quality is considerably improved now.

Overall, a good bike for all-purpose use provides a better riding experience with a good road presence.Perfect bike for long drives with good power and initial torque, as well as good comfort seats for the rider, pillion seat is a little small. Provide confidence for riders, allowing you to take them anywhere.

The buying experience was almost hassle-free up to the bike's delivery time. The riding posture is very comfortable with the suspension being soft for Indian roads. The bike is a head-turner and has a pretty good performance-to-weight ratio. Servicing is apt as per the Royal Enfield showroom instructions. The maintenance is a bit on the higher end but that is what Royal Enfield bikes are known for.

My 1st bike at the age of 26 with own money.
1 year ago
Jaya Krishna
I booked a bike on Dec 31st 2021 and got the bike on April 6th, 2022, I have lake blue himalayan, the buying experience was better but not as good. My 1st ride is with mom, she felt comfortable as a pillion, and till date, I drove 4.5k km. Lake blue color grasps attention in the crowd but maintaining it is a bit difficult so I did ppf on the tank. In city, I am getting 27kmpl and on highways, I am getting 34kmpl. Performance can be better but at this price range we have other options but still, those who love re will go for this only, on highways I cruise on 100, sometimes 120 as well, and after reaching 100 there is vibration on the handle & near the tank but its manageable. When it comes to service I did my 1st service in chittoor(ap), technicians are pathetic they don't know anything, my himalayan i am unable to disengage abs, I have taken a bike multiple times but no one responded till now so I am planning to do 2nd service in bnglr, maintenance is a bit easy for himalayan, always look after tyre pressure and use chain lube for every 500 km. No need to mention the heating issue in bump-to-bump traffic it's horrible, every time you need to have shoes. The weight of the bike doesn't issue, you just need to get used to it and everyone knows the build quality of re bikes so no need to discuss abt it. Pros: 1. Riding/seat comfort.2. Ground clearance.3. Off-road capability.4. Maneuverability.Cons:1. Headlights are pathetic, with these lights we can't ride at night.2. Of course heating issue.3. Tube tires.4. Brakes are ok but need a lot of improvement.

Himalayan 400 is a 411cc bike. Well I would like to call this a fox and perfectly I call it a cunning fox who lives in wild nature who would like to move through patchy roads of course hail Himalayan, off roaders just open your eyes you see a fox who runs like a wave and this is the best option you could choose .Officially I say you feel like a king while you ride. Kings don't go for race. They just travel like a pro so we are not race buds we are the liberal riders.

Great ease of riding.Elegant lookan awesome performance. The bike also gets better mileage compared to contemporary bikes. Overall the riding experience with my friend to a hill station was amazing. You should change the oil as per company instructions. The headlight has ample brightness even in the low-lit roads and the tires are of superior quality.

great mileage

Gavin Larsen
The Himalayan is easily the most anticipated motorcycle from Royal Enfield given its positioning as an adventure touring motorcycle. The Himalayan does make a lot of sense in that regard and Royal Enfield The brand needs no introduction to anyone who rides a motorcycle in the country Great, all should go for this bike. It looks good body is not bulky like other bikes. It is easy to ride on all roads it's really comfortable for long-distance rides and for daily commuters. It has great mileage on roads low maintenance and is less noisy.

Since 16th December 2021, till now I have covered 30900+ km with Royal Enfield Himalayan bs6 pine green.I am keeping this bike as much healthier as I can. I made a 1000 km ride in a day about 6 times. I rode this bike for more than 300 km nonstop (one petrol bunk to the next) running consistently at 80-90-100 range at noon-afternoon at high temperatures, with panniers top box pillion, it didn’t break down.What I find PROS & CONS after riding more than 30000 km, I can clearly tell that:a) Initial or low-end to midrange torque is very good to escape from stickiest situations in offroads or no roads.b) The bike is heavy at very low speeds, other than that it is fun to ride a motorcycle with very neutral handling.c) Rider’s Triangle is very comfortable though stock seats are very soft and often get uncomfortable after 250-300 km, so either you need to take a bum break or stand up on footpegs.d) Front brakes are dull in both feedback & bite, so replacing them with Yamaha R15 V3’s front disk pads (costs around 450/-, stock 250/-) will improve the braking performance a lot better.e) Rear brakes are good, not better or better.f) Rear suspension is a little stiff if you compare it with the BMW 310GS or Hero Xpulse 200, but better than the KTM 390 Adventure.g) Front suspension is very good, if you stand up in footpegs, then best, because your weight comes at your hands so more loads on the front suspension to work.h) Quality of components is improving, not like earlier, failure rates are very low. I only got stuck at once because my clutch cable snapped but luckily I always carry a spare one, because I come from a Yamaha R15 v2.0 family, which clutch cables are prone to snapping.i) The engine is stock. The clutch is stock. Battery is stock. The Chain Sprocket is still in stock.j) I replaced only one Cone Set, one Front Tyre, and one Rear Tyre.k) I serviced the Rear Suspension and bushes at home and after that, it is fine, with no sounds from the rear suspension.l) I am using Motul 7100 10W50 2Litre at an interval of 5000 km.k) Stock Fuel Pump Relay is a culprit. Change it to RE and make 5pin relay (white/light gray color), it will not give low-speed stalling problems.l) Try to use Indian Oil CoCo pumps or Shell pumps, the rest all give bad fueling to the bike and the bike suffers a lot to ride.m) Avoid water jet wash as much as possible and try to wash it with a mug, because the water will residue inside the Speedometer making it foggy.n) Use Liqui Moly Fuel System Cleaner in each 3000 km, it will take care of the bike’s fuel injector & fuel pump filter.o) The Stock Handle is of mild steel so after a drop it will bend for sure, so you can install an AOM handlebar.p) Grease the clutch cable frequently to make it soft and less prone to snap.q) The gearbox is clunky but if you set the clutch free play just right, put gear oil/wd40 at the gear shifter, and use fully synthetic engine oil, it will not be clunky.r) Stock Ceat Gripp xl tires are good, but changing to MRF Mogrip Meteor will give more mileage as well as tire life.s) Avoid putting a load on the battery with auxiliary lights etc. (without putting any relay or wiring harness), it will drop the bike’s performance drastically due to less current flow to the fuel pump or injector.t) Replace fork oil at each interval of 25000 km for more efficient front suspension travel.I think these things will help you to understand your bike better and connect to your bike.Till then!
