I bought a second hand Hymalayan a year ago and honestly l can say today, I love this bike and I really enjoy riding her, to go to the job or travelling around with my tent and backpack for a week. The Hymalayan is a real Swiss Army knife for a daily use and you'll notice you don't need a powerfull bike to have fun and smile, during a ride with your Hymalayan ! 🥰

Absolutely! A truly excellent machine, full of character with real style. Love it. Cheers 🍻

very good review :) After a 4 month wait, I picked up my new Himalayan (granite black) 3 days ago, and due to the cheap price , i added black aluminium side panniers, Givi engine bars, hand guards and heated grips to be fitted prior to pick up :) trying to run the bike in at 40mph at 3000rpm (for 300miles) seemed to labour the engine in top gear, which is bad for breaking in an engine..so i just rode it up to 3,000rpm through the gears and kept it under 4000rpm in top gear which is 50mph...she is sooo smooth, was very comfortable on my 3 hour 'B' road ride back from the dealers and i absolutely love it! The tripper nav also connected to my phone without any problems at all.. I sold my, bought new 2018 R1200GS 'Rallye' in March, as i had my heart set on one of these after watching the youtube vids and have no regrets about my decision..neither has the wife lol, I bought her a new Suzuki SV650 last week as a present and she loves it! :D

[@Revviews]

Congratulations mate and superb choice on the colour as well. Think it's my favourite. I was back out on this very bike again today. Filming part 2 the greenlaning/offroad part. All I can say is, when you factor in the offroad fun with the rest of the bike and road riding you realise just how complete the bike is and how much you can do with it. Will try and get that video out for this coming Friday. Nothing crazy but I think you will enjoy it. My first ever off road type riding. Loved it. No doubt you will make some great memories on your new Himalayan. Thanks for your thoughts and for watching friend. Cheers 🍻

Lovely review. Those english country roads look so amazing to ride on! The Himalayan is definitely on my dream list for my garage. I've booked the new Meteor 350 myself from RE. One thing I've read about the Tripper nav unit is that it resets when you turn the bike's ignition off. So that might be why it stopped giving navigations during your ride :)

[@Revviews]

Thank you Anand, we definitely got lucky with the weather on this one. It's been raining hard everyday since. Ah fantastic! I'm planning on reviewing the Meteor myself soon. Think the Interceptor and GT are on my list as next RE reviews. Looking forward to those. Ok mate I'll try that next time. Think I just lost signal. Poor coverage. Glad you liked the video and stay safe brother. Cheers 🍻

That tripper would be useless for me if it resets on losing the signal. I'd have to stick a Garmin on it.

@@Revviews Hi! Hope you are doing well. I come back seeking your opinion abit. Love the bike during the past two months. However, a small problem bother me a lot. I'm literally new to these kind of bike. Hence, seeking your thoughts if it's normal to hear the fuel pump noise while riding? The hissing sound is the same as when we turn on that red kill switch. And, It's also getting louder whenever I place my laps on the fuel tank while riding. I went to the RE service center since the first week I had the bike, but they told me that it just a normal thing on the bike. I try to ignore it, but it just getting worse and really annoying. Also planning on checking with some fellow RE Himalayan riders in my country but most of them are living in province which is pretty far, also given the partially lock down with covid situation. Hope to hear your opinion on this very soon.

[@iguana51]

Really want a Himalayan, from all the reviews ive seen it looks like everything i want in a bike. Not sure why they bothered with Tripr Nav though, it seems that they never work as intended unless the phone is mounted right next to it, in which case you have a better-inbuilt nav on the phone anyway. Pretty pointless as it's intended but it's an easier to read clock than the digital display so it still manages to serve a purpose. I grew up riding a Honda CT110 so the sound of single piston bikes make me happy

For the navigation: You have to put your battery consumption on the smartphone at max level (so, no battery optimizing option). Otherwise, U will lose connection with navigation. About the path: don't worry about gravel or unpaved macadam road. She eats it. Avoid mud and high grass and deep sand, need more aggressive tires for that.

I bought one of these 2 weeks ago to replace my 7year old 60,0000 Honda forza. How do they build these for the money . Full stainless exhaust, braided brake lines , abs , full luggage, 80mpg. The list goes on for a lot less than a h---a crf 300. Doesn't do power wheelies tho. And you have to oil the chain which you don't have to do on a BMW gs which only cost quite alot.

Hey James, very nice friend. What colour did you go for? I know right, such good value for money. Cheers 🍻

From all of the videos i've watched of them, they really would suit my kind of riding , being long past the racing stage i now just like to cruise back roads & some gravel.

Hey Marcin, that's a great question. Both machines are excellent in their own right. For me personally I would choose the Himalayan as daily riding would be more my style and the bonus of light off-road capability would appeal as well. Something I would definitely do more of.

How would you compare this to the Meteor? I know there are so many factors. For my first bike I'm looking for something I can ride around town with (live in a big city area in Phoenix, AZ USA) and also take on a weekend cruise for a few hours outside of the city. Would the Meteor and the Himalayan both fit the bill for that? I'm mainly looking for comfort and stability. I'm 51 years old so I don't want to get a bike like a Ninja 400 that I can get myself in trouble with or hurt on.

[@Revviews]

Agreed they are similar in terms of both easy going. I guess the Himalayan will give you more options for road type and its also slightly more powerful. The himalayan might actually be the more comfortable for long day rides due to the riding position. Meteor has the styling edge.

@Revviews Hi Rev, thanks for your speedy reply. I'm looking to commute and do some light touring on the road. Honestly, I'm probably going to go for the Meteor 350. I like the bike looks wise far more, and it also has some nice options for saddle bags, so touring isn't out of the question. I've always loved cruisers ever since I was a kid, only recently that I've been able to afford the licence, bike, etc. Either way, it was a fantastic review, my friend. You've earned a subscriber here. Have you done a review on the meteor 350 ?

@jamesnoonan7450 Thanks James and you're welcome mate. I certainly have mate. Review on the channel bud. Hope it helps. Any questions just ask. And good luck mate. Cheers 🍻

I took one of these out on a test ride and didn't want to give it back. I've got a Honda Grom at the moment and I think it would be a great step up from that. I'm very short at 160cm and although I can't flat foot the bike I can touch the floor with both feet on my tiptoes. I think it would be a great tourer and good for the odd bit of green laning. I'm not sure whether to go for the Euro 5 or the Euro 4 model so if anyone reading this can give me some insight that'd be much appreciated.

[@Revviews]

Hello mate. Awesome aren't they. Just pure fun and enjoyment. If needed I. Sure you can lower them a little or go for a lower seat. I'd go with the Euro 5 as its the same performance. Cheers 🍻

Can I ask why, for years of Himalayan videos, has NOBODY removed that blinking half upper fender.. now contemplating this purchase, I believe that would be my first project..pull it and tuck it away in a garbage bag on a top shelf somewhere never to be seen again..what is its purpose?

[@RayCis1]

I love the sheer simplicity of the Himalayan; ok, it's not the fastest or the strongest bike, but he, who needs 90+ HP and weight & all those other things that make bikes so complicated nowadays. I have a Honda CBF600SA from 2010, which I ran into for a very cheap price (only 2400$), after not having ridden a bike for 38 years. Tell you, even changing 4 plugs needs a tank & side-fairing removal; with a motorcycle that ought not to be the case....Adjusting valve clearance with that Honda? Pls remove both camshafts, ridiculous, to say the least... Saw a YT movie here that showed the complete dismantling of the Himalayan engine within ONE hour....that's why I tend to look more and more toward the RE...As you showed that the bike can cope with two up (mostly ride with my wife), that'll help too...

[@Revviews]

Hi Ray, totally agree with you mate. It's a pure riding experience without all the faff that bikes come with today. I will also be putting out an offroad video we did on the same bike in the next few weeks and that in my mind cemented just how incredible this bike is. Came into its own and all the BS that some bikes come with these days was proven utterly useless. Sure for more extreme riding in the hands of a pro they might be needed but for the average rider the Himalayan offers a complete package for road and offroad and all for under £5k. So good thank you friend. Cheers 🍻

@@Revviews Thank you! That's interesting. We need to hold throttle at least 1 minute or so when cold starting it or else it will die and it dies also when pulling the clutch if it is not warmed up yet and you started riding without carefully warming up. Looks like it shouldn't be like that. I heard from people that have the same issue and some have not. We have the Euro 4 Himalayan from 2020 and bought here in germany. No solution to be found.
