I was never a RE fan but the 450 Himalayan is a fantastic motorcycle that I want to buy right now and can't get. Completely sold out in Austria and endless pre-orders

Maybe you should wait. It’s prudent to avoid the Mark 1 version of anything. Any problems should be addressed in the Mk2 version. (Remember the Mk1 Himalayan 411 with the weak frame at the headstock?)

Well, it gves a lot of fun when off-road. But on paved road the engine is so weak (not 'speed' but no engine flexibility - u change gear every second), dashboard is so primitive, the workmanship is asian and ... u have to change oil each 6000km. Almost there

I was never a fan of the bike Itchy Bits rode as it always seemed too boxy/angular to me. This however is a vast improvement, and assuming its power output is sufficient for your needs it's hard to see why you wouldn't consider this machine. I like it.

Impressive I’m sure RE will sell boatloads reasonably priced too. I can definitely see some Triumph influence likely due to RE having poached a designer or two from them. Good to see decent mudguards front and rear other manufacturers please take note. The dash looks great and they even have the tachometer and speedo the correct way round unlike Triumphs 400. Thanks Mark good overall review 👍

Ive been waiting for your review of this Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 Mark. Such a great practical motorcycle with style. Lovely build quality and the paint work and welds look great and I,m certain that Royal Enfield would have been rigorous with their R&D and "in the field " real world testing before bringing this massively updated Himalayan 450 to the Showroom floor. It looks finished and complete in so many ways.

Years ago I rode a single cylinder Suzuki SP 370 trail bike - I suppose you might consider that and the Yamaha XT 500 to be early adventure style bikes. Those 'thumpers' were great fun to ride and this new Himalayan 450 seems to be carrying on a genre where those bikes left a gap. A great review of a bike offering a lot of adventures for the dosh! Cheers.

I think the small issue is the price.. will the price put people off?, one of RE big selling points was the price, you could get a nice bike for little over 4K. thanks for another great review Mark 👍

Thanks for the review, Mark? On initial impressions it looks good vfm. Build quality looks better, electronics upgrade and water cooled. It’s going to need a test ride for curiosity, if nothing else. It looks a tad overweight. With 2 plus luggage on board I’d be slightly concerned about any long(er) distance work; could be wrong, of course, but a concern. Fine for solo, absolutely. I think the new Chinese CF Moto 450mt could prove very stiff competition; Enfield is well established…..not sure if I could (yet) part with the folding on a Chinese bike. You are a bit naughty, Mark! Why not have a ball and squish through those puddles on the gravel track, cover it in mud and let’s see where the crud gets with the long front mudguard and rear fender (welcome inclusions)!

The Honda is a little pricier but so much more accomplished: More comfortable, faster, more economical, much better dash, lighter. I suppose it boils down to personal preference and style.

EXCELLENT review Mark. EXCELLENT. THOUROUGHLY ENJOYED it. If I may suggest in future video's, (and I believe this is a GREAT comment) would you mind going thru all 6 gears (at normal riding) with NO voice over so we can HEAR the motor??? 99% of all reviewers DO NOT do this. I/we would LOVE to HEAR the engine/motor from zero to 60 mph. (100 klms) with NO voice over PLEASE. I think this would only consume about 10 seconds of video Time. Perhaps you can consider this. I REALLY believe your subscribers and viewers Will APPRECIATE it. THANKS Mark, all the Very Best.

@@markpulling12 Thanks Mark, GREAT to hear. I REALLY do believe your audience would APPRECIATE it. NO talking NO voice, just the engine/motor sound ONLY, going UP through the gears AND going DOWN through the gears. (at normal riding) THANK YOU Mark.

Ah yes, but is it a Kawasaki KLR650 killer??? ;) Can't wait to test ride one of these! I love my Classic 350 but looking for something more capable. My experience with Royal Enfield has been great!

Hi Jam, may I ask: where does the 350 leave you lacking? I'm thinking about one to ride down through the Balkans to Greece.

Got to love the tubeless tires on this one too, which I forgot to mention.

It looks like a much better bike in many ways. Does have an app that puts mapping and navigation onto the screen?

Tank colour is key to losing the bulbous shape and the black with the re/orange stripe works well in this regard. A 450 Scram would have me signing on the dotted line I think as my Ducati Scrambler is a complex beast with ridiculous ( I mean seriously ridiculous ) dealer servicing costs

The black or White combos are not tubeless unless specified, and are not available yet. So please clarify the prices? Thanks

Hi Mark. You show yourself sat on the bike for reference purpose stating your height & I seem. But what you fail to mention is if you had the seat height set on the high or low setting.

Going to put you on the spot Mark. Now that you have test ridden both the new Himmy and the Voge 525. Whats the best bang for buck in your opinion.

Hi Mark. few weeks ago you tested the Voge 525DSX. so, i know they are different motorcycles, but with the same budget, which bike you would buy for city use / travel a little, some white roads?
