It's like Rolex made a motorcycle. Absolutely beautiful & high quality. But for a great price. I like the undersquare engine. Long stroke, small bore. Lots of low-end torque for a 350.

I bought a second hand, red / chrome one in October, which was 6 months old and had 2,000 miles on the clock. I LOVE it. Just subscribed 👍

Royal enfield just keeps hitting home runs, and doing it better with each new model. One thing i like is that their models are all gorgeous! Aslo, the RE engines never sound busy. The Honda CRF300l is arguably a better bike, but it is not pretty, and at certain RPMs it sounds like the piston is hitting the cylinder head. I think I would go for the Classic 300 over the CRF any day. Very informative review.

You are correct. One of the reasons I bought a RE Himalayan was the low revving engine with all its low end torque. These new Classic models have an even smoother, friendlier engine. Very well done, RE!

My first getting back into it bike at age 62. Out of it for about 10 years or so. your review is spot on… Love the bike even more as run in continues…About 1600 miles right now… Sidelined for a few months with some shoulder surgery. Again, great stuff you cover and keep up the great work. G.

The plate is indeed for the nav but because of the chips shortage they can't deliver them now. But there is a treath inside the headlamp for the tripper nav. On this bike you will ride 38 km with 1l petrol. ( would be about 24 miles on 1l...)

@forgottenmotorcycles2 жыл бұрын
If your ride was 60mph or less I think this bike would do well. You'd put about 20,000 miles on in a year. So, Two chains, 3.5 oil changes & valve adjustments, 4 to 6 air filters, and at least one tire change per year. I'm hoping to get 50,000 miles on my RE Himalayan before having to do any major work to her. But 70% or more of my miles are on gravel and dirt. Please let me know how it goes and good luck.

I can even get over basic idiotic decisions from engineering side, like adjusting shifter but, what is incredible is that they managed to get on Western markets with such massive safety issues like broken speedo, broken EVAP and very poor technical support for dealer service.
