BRUTALLY HONEST REVIEW. 30,000 Miles On A Royal Enfield Himalayan Watch This Before You Buy.

[@Paclampet63]

Perfect summary: for me you've highlighted all the key issues very well. This bike is all about the mindset. It's slow, brakes are ropey and it looks like an old landrover but it all works if you don't expect too much. Love touring on mine I find it very relaxing to ride. All the best Richard

[@WeeJaunt]

Thanks Richard appreciated mate I love the bike for all its wee flaws it's got character

[@petittrainguernsey3297]

Front brake easy to get working with a set of EBC brake pads. Transforms the stopping and eliminates the need for a crystal ball.

[@mikerobinson8734]

Intake, exhaust, cam, and ecu really open up the bike. Throttle response and 5HP gain. A 40t rear sprocket and the bike becomes even more lively.

[@tasatasat]

This is just what I wanted to see. A lot of people do "long term" 5k/10k mile reviews, which is a joke. Glad to see a legitimate review with legitimate miles.

[@charlesbarnett2724]

I'm now own of one these bikes since January it had done 7000 miles. Ive done a further 3000 miles as of now. Quite happy with it over all . Work in it myself. I've taken note of all your points and refer to your videos from time to time. Thanks again mate. Hugely appreciate your efforts here on KZbin

[@daweshorizon]

My youngest son and his partner, both riding Himmys, did 15,000 miles round Europe in 2022. Thirty five countries over four months doing their own servicincg and tyre changes as they went along. No mechanical issues. Impressive. So I bought a used but well sorted Himmy myself. Off to Europe in April. It's a great bike. A future classic I reckon! Ride safe. Love and peace.

[@iainrutherford184]

Fantastic review, and an honest insight into Himalayan ownership. I'm really debating whether or not to get one, as the prices are crazy low atm. Safe travels and here's to the next 30k (and the next etc etc).

[@johnokelly8166]

A very fair and honest review on that mileage for the RE Himalayan. If the maintenance and checks are carried out correctly and timely, I believe the RE Himalayan can serve a rider very well over a long period. Like any Motorcycle depending on type of usage and Terrain, wear and tear will manifest itself over time which is normal. As you pointed out and proved in your videos many times, maintenance and attention to any unusual noise and doing something about it makes all the difference. Also upgrades to Bulbs and brake pads and good quality branded Tyres for the type of riding, is the key to riding free issues also spares for long trips. Again another clear and concise review after regular Himalayan riding and also putting in some long rides. I would also like more power from my Himalayan but as you rightly state at the speeds the bike is capable of, you don't miss much on the journey. Thanks again for a really great review.

[@johnsshed995]

Interesting vid. I’ve mentioned a few times myself on various forums about the headlamp brightness being affected by the glare of the dashboard but no one has ever commented on that. I suspect they all thought I was ,and when I suggested they test it by putting a hand in front of your face at night. Pleased to hear that someone else has done this test 😊

Hello there. Great review! I live in France and only have 16000 km on my himy's clock. Good to hear I should be O.K for many (I hope) to come. Just had to replace one relay to get rid of difficult starting issues. So rendez-vous for the 60000 mile review. Take care. Tony.

[@stuartlloyd8276]

watch this because it is honest. I have exactly the same bike and mine has done 10,000 miles. Replaced the bars as they bent after dropping the bike - they bend easily. My clocks also mist up. The front brake is CRAP - I fitted the softest pads I could find and now I have a decent front brake. left over time the battery drains, which means you cannot start the bike. I used a Hitchcocks device to stop that but even now it is always on a trickle charger at home. I replaced the battery with a YUASA and on my trip to Scotland, 9 days (no trickle charger obviously) had no issues. I replaced the relays rather than have issues - too many people complained for me not to take action. On putting in the new relays one of the pins popped out the back of the housing and caused me some issues before I spotted it. Normal riding I baby it sitting at 50 ish - in 8000 miles I never burnt any oil or had to adjust the tappets. My Scotland trip was 2000 miles. First day was two up at 70 MPH for 230 miles in the rain. The wind got up later in the trip and I had to ride in lower gears to maintain momentum. In short she got a good thrashing. This meant that she burnt some oil and needed tappets adjusting upon my return. I broke down 3 times whilst away - all down to the rear brake - it was not allowing fluid to return back into the cylinder so my brake overheated and stuck on. Could not fix it myself and had a mechanic look at it - he said it could have happened to any bike. On a good note when I was running it in I got 100MPG at 40 MPH. 90 MPG at 50 MPH. Both these figures were bringing the bike from St Helens to South Lincs where I live. MOST IMPORTANT The suspension is outstanding for a bike of this size and price. My wife has a bad back and gave up being a pillion. She went for a ride on it as pillion and we did the NC 500 - 2000 miles in 9 days - no ill affects at all. So many thanks wee jaunt for some honesty - The bike is marmite - you either love em or hate em. The Foggster

Thanks for that mate. aye same issue with the rear caliper around mid may started locking up but it's been fine since the replacement hopefully that will resolve it long term. You are right love them or gate them they have character lol

[@DirkGentley42]

Just wondering how long you'd leave it to find the battery drained. My Ducati does the same thing. If left for a week without a trickle charger it's a gamble. Is this normal for modern bikes (prior to the Ducati my most modern bike was a '79 bonnie) what with EFI systems and imobilisers etc?

[@DirkGentley42]

That's seriously good fuel consumption and nice to hear from an actual owner. I'm impressed with the 70 two up. Although i quite like the idea of the Himalayan, my main concern is that I'll find it slightly lacking in cruising speed. I tend not to like having to cane a bike for long, and just wished the Himalayan was 10-15 miles an hour quicker. I'm planning on getting an interceptor, but that seems a big jump from the nice, basic, rugged, Himalayan. I guess the 450 is an alternative,but for some reason that just don't have the same appeal as the 411. Have you tried any performance mods at all?

[@WeeJaunt]

Interesting yes different parts of the world seem to throw up different issues thanks mate

[@pabloricardodetarragon2649]

The dutch lady (Itchy Boots) finding that the Himalayan is too heavy, is under powered, (The weight of a Yamaha T7 with 1/3 of the power...) with not so good suspensions has taken a Honda CRFL 300 Rally. I'm not sure it's the best choice as the Honda has simply bad suspensions (you can improve the fork but you have to change ASAP the rear shock), lacks cruelly of power and it's not so light. She spent 2700 USD on a already expensive bike, trying to address the suspensions and other issues. The ideal ADV light bike would have good 250 mm suspensions, something around 40 HP very sweet and linear, and stay under 140 kg dry. There are rare in the actual market.

[@DirkGentley42]

Hi. Thanks for the channel. If you want to experiment with led headlight bulbs, there's a company called classic car leds that do h4 bulbs, direct fit and work with standard refectors. They come in different colour temperatures so you can avoid the blinding white light, which is counter productive in rain and fog anyway. You can get one's that are the same colour as halogen and when the main beam is on the dip remains lit, which is nice. Around £30. Also use less power than a halogen.

I honestly can't fault my Himaleyan, It has its annual full service and MOT and has flown through the past couple of times. It's like any machine. If you thrash it and take it off the road or on extremely long tours, it's going to suffer. The only issue I really had was the front break being a bit shit, but honestly, it's not noticeable until you've really mullered the pads. I usually notice my front break going just before its annual maintenance (service and MOT). The console fog has never happened to me. Mine have always stayed clear and un fogged.

For a BMW GS with cardan drive, you may need the third shaft at 50,000 km.

In my V-Strom was at 30,000 km the gear indicator defective, the machine then no longer wants to start, unless you shift before „dry“ about 10 times up and down, you must then also know 😱

It's not about doing 100 mph, it's about having adequate power to accelerate along with modern traffic and given this bikes lack of power a slight headwind or uphill gradient and it will struggle. This bike has a lower power to weight ratio of a 125 and there's a reason why you don't see 125s on the motorway.

He has a perfectly easy accent to listen to , its a big world out there- have you ever realised we all speak differently and that is the joy of it !

Henry 8th was English. James 4th was king of Scotland at that time. 1500’s. Scotland a completely different country to England. It was the Treaty of Union in 1707 that created the Kingdom of Great Britain. The United Kingdom came about in 1801 when Nirthern Ireland joined in. Many accents and across the UK. Just like in the US or Australia. Someone from New York sounds completely different to a Texan for example.

Thanks for the reassurance, i thought our little island was adrift somewhere in the Atlantic. Judging by the weather i thought we must be getting close to Iceland. I wish I'd been born in California. 🙄
