Absolutely!

Bas bhai, Dilli ke dukan daron ne shikha diya

Ab inke nazron se koi nahi bach sakta

The staff at ShreeRadhey are genuinely helpful and skilled as well. Thanks for sharing your experience.

ScoutX does 60% of the job very well. It's good for city and similar conditions. In hilly and highway conditions, the additional lighting is quite helpful and is fulfilled by Alpha.

Thank you

I'm happy to know that I could be of some help. Thank you for your appreciation. Cheers!

99% yes.

Thank you for writing. 😊 I also thought about it, but I wonder whether it would be helpful or not. 🤔 The engine temperature reaches about 100⁰C, would the Loctite hold at that temperature? I know its melting point is around about 180⁰C. As was in doubt, I didn't do it or mentioned it in the video. I do appreciate you mentioning it though. 👍 Cheers! 🍻

Yup!

@@WanderingSom this is why my Interceptor is going to be the 1st & last RE crap for mee

Hmm! Not a bad idea.

@@WanderingSom 🧠🚬

Yes, sir, finally! It's very straight now. 🙌 #success #finally #straight

Hello, thank you for the suggestions. I will certainly take them into consideration. Cheers! 😊 #grateful #takingnotes

Thanks, Joe. I'm glad you found my videos helpful. I looked at the KTM and Triumph 400X before I decided on the Himalayan. I liked it because: 1] I'm familiar with RE bikes, 2] I wanted a bigger but lighter bike, and it fit the bill, 3] I like the sound of the engine, 4] it felt like a real bike while the others felt like toys, and 5] my wife liked it too. If I hadn't bought the Himy, I would have gotten the KTM Adventure 390. I've only done 2020 kms so far. I think I need to spend more time with it before I can write a review. I'll do it soon, though. Thanks again for your appreciation.

@@WanderingSom Thanks again. In point 2, I presume that you are comparing it with the Interceptor 650. Right?

Yes, I got used to that kind of machine. And if quite light after Interceptor.

The feeling is quite common among many of the riders. I am not a very technical person, but I do see the point you are making. I appreciate you sharing your opinion. Cheers!

@@WanderingSom . To see my point I would like you to study the chassis design of different ADV motorcycles and compare with the Himalayan 450 . See what is common across brands and what is missing in the Himalayan 450

@@regorohan That would be interesting. I would like to know more. Please do once you have more dope.

It's Shree Radhey Govinda Automotives, at Okhla Indutrial Area Ph 2.

I, too, hope that issue is addressed if not completely resolved.

I am told that a lot RE guys don't use the torque range. So such mistakes are bound to happen.

@@WanderingSom Even I’ve not seen the RE guys using Torque Wrench. When I went to Vagator, Goa to Motoverse 2023, I was amazed with the media hype of H452. I was about to book, but that time the quality was the thing that I am waiting for the second version of it. I was not aware that you purchased a H452 after Interceptor. We are used to loads & loads of torque; how you feel Himalayan 450 in low RPMs?

Oh! That's something I really miss. At the same time, riding this machine is a joy as it effortlessly moves over every possible surface. I wanted an adventure touring bike. Hopefully, this will serve the purpose.

@@WanderingSom H452 will survive the purpose; I went for G310GS. Lets meet at Motoverse 2024 from November 22-24 at Vagator Goa, you can book it early bird 2500/-

@@automotriztechnica Certainly. I do plan to visit the event this year.

Thank you. I'm happy to know that you liked it.

Happy 😊 to be of some help. 😊

Bingo! You're right. They don't use it. I specifically asked for it, so they found it from somewhere.

That's also another way of looking at it. I believe it gives atleast a mental assurance of safety. 🛡️

Like I said, since I can't un-buy, I might as well be cautious.

Ironies of life, I guess.

Same with my Discover 125 and my cousins pulsar 220F. Discover is my spare bike now and the 390 ADV my primary one. KTM service centres have been the main reason why I chose a KTM. Not saying the bike is perfect. But the mechanics are. Rest, follow ups are required everywhere.

I believe KTM is still a better built bike.

Good choice. Congratulations.

Welcome to the club of "RE Ke Guinea Pigs." We all got our free membership the moment we bought the machine. By the way, it's not a bad idea to buy the torque range.

Ha bhai ...

RE like its riders to work hard.

Arre nahi bhai, bike ke saath saath, service centers ki bhi tarakki ho gayi hai.

Thank you

Absolutely 💯

Hello, I concluded that this is a powerful bike and will pull you from almost anything, provided you can manage the weight. If you are a hard-core off-roader, the Interceptor 650 is not the bike for you. I hope I have explained it better now. Thanks for writing in. I hope you have subscribed to the channel. Cheers

Happy to be of some help.

It was!

Yeah, there's a place for everything.

Come Sept, post the rain, and will be back on the wheels.

Thank you

Thank you

Hey there, Thanks for the message. These days, you've got some great options. You can choose between MRF and Reise. Reise is a bit more expensive, but MRF is really good. I used MRF tires for my last trip to Ladakh. They're dual-purpose tires. When you change the tires, make sure to get the spoke alignments checked. I'm sure you won't have any more wobbling issues after that. Ride safe and have fun!

@@WanderingSom thank you so much for your kind response.. i m sure it would help

Thank you Collye, happy to know that you liked the video. Indian roads, besides the potholes, also have the 'jugaads' available on the side. Thanks for writing in.

Thank you Amardeep, happy to know you liked it.

Yes, sir, I did. Thank you!

"Motorcycles help you make memories" - that's brilliant! I'm highly impressed. Thank you for your kind words.

Where there's a will, there's always a way. Surely, you should explore these beautiful terrains of India. Amen!

I am 5.7. The windshield is quite good.

Thank you

Hello ji

Yes, it does, to a large extent.

I completely agree with you regarding lights getting dirty or a stone hitting the glass. Look at it from a practical usability perspective. First, if the light is to be used as a fog lamp, it cannot go higher than 24" from the ground; otherwise, it is not effective. Second, the auxiliary lamps are very powerful, and when placed next to the headlight, the beam goes almost parallel to the ground, adversely affecting oncoming traffic. Lastly, according to the law, you can only put a fog light on your vehicle, not an auxiliary light. And fog lamps need to be closer to the ground (refer to the first point). Bearing all the above in mind, I concluded on the position of the lights. I hope I am able to provide a proper response. Cheers!

@@WanderingSom u can adjust Aux focus in any case. Aux should be just below Headlamp and forward position for better projection

Hello Robin, happy to know that I could be of some help. Happy n safe riding. Cheers!

Congratulations, Shivanshu, on the new alloys. They will save you a lot of trouble. The MRF tires are a good choice. Happy and safe riding.
