Perfect review 👌
since it does not have Kick and have Carburated Engine. I am afraid, that does it give starting problem in Winter ? Does it give vibration on 100+ km/hr ?
OK i know now that this bike will not work for me….maybe at india where 80-90 kph is standard but for the rest of Europe and the us it will will not be enough I will take a 15 years old kawasaki KLE than this poor engine bike.
Sorry RE you blew this one up
where is this shot ?
i will prefer heavy duty than this shit…total bullshit..crap bike..
Shit! Bike ……..😑😑
check out my motovlog tricolorsuperbikes
Hey.. I see everyone says its good… but the tests are mud, bad terrain, rain.. which is mostly in good and low temperatures. How does it handle the 40+ degrees the summer offers us these days. Why doesnt anybody say anything about it.
sir i am going for a bike thats confortable as i want to travel from cities
Nice, honest, easily understood review – Kudos!!
I love the sound it's sounds like a jag … f type
Especially when it revs down
I never like RE but this is hot
Good they didt put fuel injection we can do push If the batteries die in the top of the hill
Wound love if they had a small supercharged as it helps when you go higher altitudes because thin air means fuel mixture may not be as we desired
My question is that how much weight it could carry in that messy roads??
Very good review… It would have been not any better without the Host… All credits goes to the Host Karthikeya. But one thing I'm not sure about is that the engine has a knocking sound in the Test bike I rode at Bangalore.
which parts of Himalayas did you try these ?
Age of the Enfield baby
Very good review indeed ! Are we gonna see that bike in Europe ?
Can't wait to ride on it !
how to set up its clock +Autocar
whu don't they made abs one
Looks like RE are getting with the programme! Good on ya, RE!
please do review this bike on speed track and onroad….@autocar
I don't know why guys need more bhp, if u see bhp:torque this bike works perfect and being from Himalayas I don't see any reason u need to cross 70kmph in our winding and unpredictable roads. and ABS would have been helpful if u r above three digit mark in speed, which I feel is very dangerous when u see the condition for which this made .. I.e. Himalayan areas. every years we have so many death cases due to over speeding, so all the specs u guys want makes u vulnerable too.
Thanks for the honest review.. I need a bit more about the fuel efficiency of the bike.. I know RE doesn't focus on fuel efficiency, but as a common on road rider I want to know the milage of the vehicle..
Do we get a abs in 2017 model sir ?
full review ?
sold.
ok
hi guys, Probably you guys were lucky… you got the right bike….
but for me it………….
on 25 of august 2016 i purchased Himalayan bike( Royal enfield).After reading all the reviews and videos.Today its 28th so its been almost 3days. I drove around 110 km.
So let me list out the problems with a brand new bike.
1. Electrical issues. Seriously??
2. Heating up near your left leg.
3. Non stop noise from windshield and speedo meter.
4. Noise from engine and vibration.
5. Still wondering what the exact sound of the himalayan engine.
6. White smoke.
7. Sudden engine off.
8. Royal enfield service centre wondering why?
I really dont know what should i do… i know you guys must be laughing at me.
For you guys 1.8L is nothing. For me it means alot.
Its hard earned money, not black money or my father is F**king rich.
All im asking and request middle class and lower middle class people to think and buy stuffs.
Dont read the review or watch videos and decide, they are paid review or they are doing it to get famous.
Guys royal enfield with never help you. They just need money and they are happy.
Thanks guys.
Forgot about the mileage 25-27
awesome video.
Kitna DEti hain ?
How about a diesel mill for this beauty? It will be a category definer.
Please feed us review for Honda XR 150L too !
anyone know where they shot this?
is a boring bike, with only 22hp, bad seating position, a attempt to use the name himalayas for the company and just a bike for full beginners, now we will have a lot of super cheap tours and they will destroy the offroad industry…fucking remotherfucking indiens…
