Royal Enfield Himalayan is adventure tourer

The Royal Enfield Himalayan is an odd design. the company says that while it wanted to do an adventure tourer.


I have to mention here that the motorcycle looks a lot better up close and in the flesh than in the pictures, there are angles from which the Himalayan looks awkward or disproportionate, but by and large.


It’s a handsome, spartan motorcycle that looks like a tool or a machine rather than the fancy, plastic-covered gargantua that pass for adventure tourers today, the details in the design that stand out for me are easy to spot. I like the idea of the frame that mounts on a crossbar under the tank and carries the weight of the headlight, I also like the little rack for gear on the back.


As you know the LS410 named engine in the Royal Enfield Himalayan is all-new. But it most certainly doesn’t feel like a new engine. I’m not sure if Royal Enfield engineered it like this, but it feels more like an improved current engine than a brand-new one, On the plus side, the 24.5PS LS410 is a counterbalancer-equipped engine, Economy? No surprises. The Royal Enfield Himalayan returned 28kmpl on our city cycles and 36 on the highway. That tots up to a neat 30kmpl overall, The Royal Enfield Himalayan is a comfortable motorcycle. Its seat works well hours into the ride and the handlebar position is a good compromise between sitting upright and standing on the pegs, averall the bike is good enuf.
