With both front and rear disc brakes, Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 comes up with anti-locking braking system. This Himalayan 450 bike weighs 196 kg and has a fuel tank capacity of 17 liters.
The new Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 is the successor to the 411cc iteration of the motorcycle. It’s not an updated offering but a brand-new motorcycle that has been developed from the ground up. The new chassis, modern engine, and contemporary features now make it a more worthy contender to the likes of the KTM 390 Adventure and Triumph Scrambler 400 X.
While the bike retains a silhouette similar to the previous model, it looks sleeker and more athletic. Also, the new colour options lend it a fresh visual appeal. The new colour options include Kaza Brown, Slate Himalayan Salt, Slate Poppy Blue, Hanle Black and Kamet White.
Underneath the new bodywork is an all-new 450cc engine. This is the first engine from Royal Enfield with liquid cooling and offers 40bhp and 40Nm. It comes mated to a six-speed gearbox with an assist and slipper clutch as standard. Other features include a colour TFT screen with Google Maps and Bluetooth connectivity. Moreover, it also gets switchable ABS and ride-by-wire throttle.
The Himalayan 450 weighs 196kg; a few kgs lighter than the 411 while the fuel tank capacity is increased to 17 litres. Talking about dimensions, the standard seat height of this ADV is 825mm but it can be decreased and increased significantly. Further, the ground clearance and wheelbase stand at 230mm and 1,510mm, respectively. As for the cycle parts, the Himalayan 450 rides on a 21-17-inch spoke wheel combination that is suspended Showa USD forks and a monoshock while braking is handled by a single disc at both ends.

Because of their high lubrication ability and temperature resistance, these oils function perfectly in extreme conditions. Although fully synthetic oils are more expensive than mineral and semi-synthetic oils, they last longer and provide better protection for motorcycle engines.

[@ayushvasurudragour427]

Hi Nitish , just today only I got first service of my Himalayan 450 done , and yes to me too , the motorcycle feels like a totally different motorcycle but sadly for me , the experience has gone down , I now feel that there are lot more vibrations and also that now gears shift with a quick and solid clunk like "pataaak" as compared to more plush and soft like before , also rear brakes dont work like they used to before even if I push them hard there is no sudden stopping , I talked to service manager about these issues he said he did nothing but only cleaned up the brake pads and refitted them. What is your take on this ?

[@rahuldvsingh4062]

Eco mode got lesser knock at lower rpms. Try it!

[@nitishneo2]

Yes, tried it 🙌

[@unclasswithsuryasir5448]

Yes dude .....eco mode with abs off is Lil better😊

Word on the street: tak tak noise is from cam chain, which might nwed tightening.

[@rajsadhu3892]

As I've come to know that you have had burned your clutch plate on 452... So anything u want to share about that? And need a suggestion... I'm 6'2" Weighs 74kgs And mostly doing city and highway touring...rarely do some offroading... Like 10% of total ride... my budget is 3.5L so what would be the best pick for me? Is it Him452 or adv 390X ??

[@MrUdgeet]

Did you check the right pulling? I have the same bike waiting to complete 500 kms. It leans to the right from the first day.

[@nitishneo2]

Yes bro, checked it. My bike doesn’t pull right, I have spoken about it in this video☺️

[@SaiPrasad.k]

@mrudgeet. I have bought the Kaza Brown variant. I’m also facing the same issue in my bike it is pulling towards right side.. tomorrow going to give the bike for first service I will inform the same with service guys. Let’s see whether they can rectify it or not.

[@rohangrower]

Let me know if the right pulling thing got fixed @Sai

[@platina4711]

Did they open n clean the air filter? Any valve clearance checks performed at 1st service?

[@nitishneo2]

Nope, that didn’t happen

is it necessary? just like tappet adjustment on meteor ?

There are some sealants available and apart from that you can also wait for tubeless spoke as an accessory

Bro what was the sound from cone set did they tell anything

[@nitishneo2]

There was a bit of play which they fixed

[@shantanukulkarni7810]

Please confirm that engine oil recommended is fully synthetic or semi synthetic.....cause all I have heard is semi synthetic is needed.

[@nitishneo2]

It’s Semi Synthetic at the moment. Company has recommended the same but I will eventually shift to fully synthetic after a couple of services.

[@ajinkyadalvi7764]

Riding in pune in such types of area is totally mind fuck with old Himalayan new Himalayan is giving total new riding experience .

400 kms on this bike and these are the problems i face- (please tell me if this is normal) * coneset sound i guess,when i drive it into big bumps and gutters * im facing a little knocking at the figures 👇🏻 2nd gear knocks - 15-18 km/h 3rd gear knocks - 26-29 km/h I dont know really, is this knocking normal at these speeds on these gears? * click sounds when i change the gears to 1 and 2 but sometimes the sound is absent,on high speed gears, there is a very little or no sound * grunting sound figures 👇🏻 @1st gear the grunting sound will start from 20 km/h Please Reply! ❤

[@nitishneo2]

Coneset sound - you can check with SVC, they will solve it. Knock is common, try to keep the rpm high to avoid knocks. Gear click sound - don’t get what you meant by this.. Engine grunt is common on higher revvs

[@supratikdyagal1186]

I am facing lot of issues with the Instrument cluster on my new Himalayan 450, used to connect well initially with my iphone. But now it does not connect with my Iphone 13 pro max or OnePlus 10 pro. Any solution for this issue? I tried Factory Reset as well..

Not sure bro. I haven’t faced this issue yet. Will surely update you if I face such issue.

air filter cleaning ka video bana bhai

[@nitishneo2]

Sure bhai

[@Bumblebee_Jayesh]

In others videos of first service the air filter was cleansed but not in ur case. Ideally it should have been cleaned

[@nitishneo2]

There is no need actually. Why would you even need an air filter when it is going to get choked in just 500 kms. Also the same wasn’t mentioned in their service instructions manual.

[@Bumblebee_Jayesh]

@@nitishneo2 it was just from safety purpose to check. Definitely the filter wouldn't be clogged in just 500kms but since the machine is new all things shall be checked is what I feel.

[@nitishneo2]

@@Bumblebee_Jayesh agreed bro 🙌 Let’s see, I will surely update if there is an issue with the air filter.. Hope there won’t be any

[@Suryashenoy]

Took delivery of 452 yesterday. Even I'm finding that cone set issue in bad roads. What did they do to solve it? Also, the whistle noise of the fuel pump while the engine is running is a bit louder. Is that normal? I'm coming from old bs4 himalayan didn't find such a loud fuel pump sound.

[@nitishneo2]

They will set the right torque and fix the coneset but whistle noise is something that I haven’t heard of till now.

[@sabarimani1844]

What is the onroad price you paid ? Whether any changes due to recent price hike?

[@Suryashenoy]

@sabarimani1844 I paid on 30th December so I got the old price. Took delivery yesterday after all the registration stuff by the dealer. Registration is done for the year 2024.

Hey man i actually am interested in buying the Himalyan 450 because it is very comfortable for my height (I'm 6'4) and I've taken the test ride and it was very very comfortable and amazing, but we can't judge only with a test ride right. But now I'm hearing that there will be a Himalyan 650 and Himalyan 450 Rally but it's gonna take a lot of time to first come into the market and then run for a bit, and all these prototypes that you have in this bike. I really want to take the best and with so many upcoming things in the Himalyan I'm hesitant to take, but i don't have the patience to wait 1 or 2 years as well. And I've heard complaints about the app and compatible with IOS, keeping the phone on while navigating, toggle lever for the screen is not efficient, tubed tires etc. That's why I need your help, is it a good bike for me to take at around May time? Like will these small small issues be resolved and i get a fun motorcycle to ride?

[@nitishneo2]

Himalayan 650 is highly doubtful where as Rally version is expected to be out by the end of this year or max next year. Looking at your requirements I think you should pick the New Himalayan. Go for it man🙌

Hello brother I’m planning to buy Adv but I’m confused between Himalayan 450 and ktm 390 adv. I’m civil contractor My requirements are comfortable for long journey 25-30 mileage Pillion comfort My doubts are about pillion bike suspension go low if the 60kg guy sit on it and with heavy luggage and pillion will it look odd in behind?

Hi Nitish, why are the RE service centre’s using semi synthetic oil instead of fully synthetic oil it’s quite surprising to see this

[@nitishneo2]

It is because company recommends them to do that. Even I am thinking of upgrading to a fully synthetic post the free services.

[@varunmudumbai2176]

@nitishneo2 What's the difference between them both. What advantages of fully synthetic

Brother, I don't like how dirty the meter of the bike ar is looking and why are you not telling it, I am not able to understand, you have your own bike, that's why you are not telling me how dirty the meter is looking, please understand. I am not able to understand, at what speed are you driving, which turn to take, what are you doing, how many kilometers, the bike is good, but its speed is not suitable for the camera, do something about this thing and tell me all these things. This is all the problem in this bike, so there is no use in making your video.

Dirty? Didn’t get you man
