I have been riding RE bikes for the past 27 years, I personally feel these bikes can cope with any terrain with ease. In 2019 I rode to Khardung La on my Thunderbird 500 ( still own it), no issues throughout my ride. The only thing that I miss is the THUMP, previously from quite a distance a moving RE bike used to indicate it's arrival....now you reslise it's presence only when it is in front of you.

[@aftabpathan3148]

Probably you have the BS3 or the first gen Thunderbird

[@malikmohammedalikhan6770]

Aftab Bhai, it is a BS4, purchased May 2019.

[@aftabpathan3148]

@@malikmohammedalikhan6770 then how you can say u have faced no issues of one way valve,purge valve & cannister 🤔as in my standard filling up petrol more than 6 lts is a crime 😂😂

[@BhanuPatial]

@@malikmohammedalikhan6770 I feel you.. I have the same sep 2019 abs. Its amazing. Thump is missing but the roar on highway is pure love.

[@BhanuPatial]

@@aftabpathan3148 i fill it to the brim. No issues at all

[@mountains_N_life]

Build for no road, build for every road. Kudos to RE Himalayan it is the one of the best bike ever.

[@elviscorgen9674]

Nice work, guys. I got a Himalayan too. Greetings from the Czech Republic and good luck.

[@BobCarvalho]

These bikes have soul! My Interceptor Sunset Strip has...i ride motorcycle since 72. My father had an Indian and a DKW in 1936, 750cc...

[@MeerkatADV]

Riding through ice and snow is never easy. Doing it on a loaded bike is a whole different challenge. More detail about the modifications you had to make would be super interesting.

[@tojilumanogjr.4498]

I love how this is becoming the next “long way” adventures that Ewan McGregor and Charlie Boorman gave us. Keep it up RE!!!

[@adaptableadventurerider]

Very awesome :) thanks for taking the time to inspire us all can't wait for episode 2.

[@singh.anshuman]

RE never ceases to amaze !!! Waiting for my first adventure bike trip. Hopefully soon!

[@SauvikRoy]

If only this motorcycle had a slight bit of more power, better breathing and better Dynamo, it would be a straight killer. I couldn't wait for the 450 Himalayan! Still, I'm never selling my BS4.

[@user-gq2vn1xj2r]

And a lot less weight.

[@MithilaFoodie]

I am eagerly waiting for the Himalayan 450 🤩🤩

[@hondaslex]

There is enough power for offroad adventures. :-) Riding technique is the key. Even on Tarmac it's ok for me. Loving my Himalayan. I'm also owning a Yamaha T700. But on the RE I don't have any fear for any Adventure.

[@SauvikRoy]

@@hondaslex No there isn't. Just to break traction, you have to rev it in 1st gear. So, forget anything like little power slides. I saw a guy on KZbin do it, but it is difficult to pull off for beginners. Rear brake slides can be achieved by disabling the ABS. If you stall the bike while climbing something a little not gentle, you're probably better off rolling downward and trying again. The bike is generally forgiving, though it has the potential to scare you if you tried. I'm saying this in a nice way, not like the AT.

[@sjsuanpau436]

Man , I love the spirit driving you guys at RE, keep it going ✌

[@Roadkill601]

I have been ridding since I was 13. I am Iron Butt member but never had an adventure like this. Just Awesome!

[@95kanishkagarwal]

This is brutal and I love it!

[@NJake007]

Well done Royal Enfield, awesome and solid marketing for the Brand !

[@TripGuru]

But what about the quality ? Showing extraordinary visuals doesn't hide the flaks of the product...

[@humbertodacosantana]

What an incredible idea! Bringing unnecessary noise, gasoline and rubber pollution to one of the few places in the world that are still free of humans and their filth. Congratulations Royal Enfield!

[@RevItUpMumbai]

The series has great potential invest some time in good voice artists the reach will be immense

[@joyrider4540]

Do what vijay parmar taught your team in whiteout - remove the abs sensors , drop the sprocket size to remain in power bandwidth, get knobbies with studds screwed in , get two side skies to take in side abrupt slips , and wear crampons ( elastic size ) on your shoes , and finally get the rider who was called the snow panther by your riders ! Ps _ also get jabez he is full energy ,

[@santhoshvijay4013]

the expedition is over. They rode the bike successfully to the pole last year.

[@joyrider4540]

@@santhoshvijay4013 oo so royal enfield is doing what it loves to do ! Remake videos of old expedition again and again,

[@Takis214]

We love our Himalayan bikes, built for no road

[@Akash_Sharma19]

Damn! Now that's what I call a bucket list. These conditions are really too harsh for the man and the machine but that's what adventure is and these challenges are what which makes this brand special. ❤️

[@RevItUpMumbai]

Commenting for better reach

[@babaibanerjee9701]

So very nice himalayan riding royal enfield and so nice speed 👍👌👌🔝💯💯🚩🚩

[@being_happy_]

we do need tubeless tyres on himalayan now, hope the 450 has it

[@hashmida88]

South Pole, finally a place where Himalayan won't heat up.

[@BressanElBando]

Very Inspiring! Extreme Adventure!

[@KevinLearAdventures]

Love it, absolutely LOVE IT - Santhosh, my friend, you are a damn superstar :-) - I am coming to India again from 3rd January can I have a Royal Enfield please ?

[@Creatorbrahma003]

Now you guys know how important it is to have tubeless tiers for RE Himalayan

[@lavanyasukumaran1694]

Watching without eye blinking 🤩

[@devadityashah3391]

These really cool people are the reason of my alive spirit.... Kudos lovely cool people

[@dcc365]

I think RE should give tubeless to Himalayan that's relay need to change. Now a days all terrain cars also gives tube less tires.and thank size needs to be upgrade

[@YogeshSharma-jz5qq]

I ❤️ you Royal Enfield...

[@jemen86]

Ich freue mich schon auf die nächsten Folgen 👍👍👍

[@siddharthpathak1391]

Real test of man & machine!

[@clintsride]

No one can beat RE in marketing

[@cezarmartins3489]

I bet those himas dyed about 30 times before they finally turned on 😅

[@LaeDeMotoOutraVez]

This is F..... Brutal!

[@saikatduttachowdhury535]

Eagerly waiting for the unfolding of the story!!!

[@themaniac6149]

beautiful ....himalayan is love

[@rhlparkr]

These bikes for sure need spoked tubeless tyres!!!

[@princedhankani6183]

I lovee this motorcycle

[@TravelLikeWater]

Made for the Himalayas, rode everywhere.

[@EnfieldSpirit]

Yea V super

[@valoarena6238]

tubeless is the way , maybe they will understand one day

[@akshaysheoran2398]

and thats why we want tubeless tyres on it

[@thomasbordelon4149]

RE needs to build a two wheel drive, wide tire bike. Like a Rokon only a real street legal version.

[@nakulsaxena8959]

Very nice bike

[@Rajrocks004]

MENTAL 🤯🤯🔥🔥🔥

[@4creation202]

Himalayan ❤️‍🔥

[@MrSpeed-lt8gr]

Maybe they’ll have to rename this motorcycle the Antarctican? 🤔

[@DEB_971]

All good but when puncture in remote areas then ??

[@hasstech6049]

Amazing

[@iharish9571]

❤❤❤

[@saurabhk7517]

[@umakantd.109]

GOOD VIDEO, please make it 4K quality. Also remove the subtitles, they are terrible.

[@1000MILLIONSHORTS]

Bike is less running and also more pulling by car ,this show how bike stuk in cold

[@kirankamble3722]

Good one

[@ibnuroshans8142]

🙌🤩

[@shinojgk]

The Himalayan is built for all roads and no roads, but still is quite unreliable. Suggestion to royal enfield to make the Himalayan more reliable ..like they did with j series engine.

[@skg901]

Things could go horribly South.... No pun intended...

[@lgc9838]

why did re scew-up 2017 500cc models?

[@sanjukr3315]

Way tougher than south...😆realllyyyy😆...ohhhh boy .....

[@tejeshwvardhan1165]

make it all wheel drive!

[@stumpymacgabhann]

Keep the GPS tracker and give me 4lt more in the tank.

[@roshanbajaj592]

And one more things if you are not given kick then you give option interested person fitted after time

[@martykasa7864]

Yeah, right. Mine will not even start in 40⁰F.

[@Sherlock_Ohms]

Yours starts?

[@ksekhose8933]

I will never understand how you went on to prove that a platform such as the k1 can do this much and just replace it and make it obsolete. Like what was the reason for even proving the capability then??

[@adventureswithfarmertroy]

🎥🎬…….🏍❄️😎🤘

[@customnotion]

Why still using the older Himalayan model in promos?

[@madgaming2811]

Himalayan feels underpowered now🙄

[@irondrifter4702]

Real Motorcyclists doesn't need backup van

[@roshanbajaj592]

When you launch the bullet next gen

[@drury2d8]

The problem is that the engine is from the 80s, at best.

[@johnydesparado123]

wasnt this the same bike that split into 2 during a ladakh trip ? hahahah

[@memyselfncats]

its grand tour on bikes haha

[@themechanicsingh4159]

That’s a really slow bike .

[@estevaodeboni9133]

que video mau feito

[@gromit576]

Full support vehicles with all parts, short 5 second clips and rest is yap..yap..yap. I am Indian and still don't trust RE.

[@cezarmartins3489]

YES, TUBELESS IS THE WAY TO GO, RE

[@peebeeking3587]

Tubeless tires and at least 35kw... and you will be mine.
