I came here for the Himalayan. I just bought one about 3 weeks ago and I'm a 1k miles now. It's the bike I can afford. Easy to work on and goes about anywhere. Oh, and I won't get a speeding ticket. Hopefully. It's perfect for someone like me on a fixed income as I can't afford the $150/hr shop rate.

Just finished 2K kilometers with mine and I fully understand the doubts. Still - I have my dream bike currently taken on a long ride within Germany. It sucks on a german autobahn and if it´s windy it triple sucks the moment you have to drive against the wind with the 24.5 HPs. It is not the quickest climber, especially on long, steep streets. Still, I still have the urge to give it a carrot after a ride or a pat on the tank as it is trundeling easily but slowly along any street and road I take her. And it makes me smile whenever I sit on her and ride her in the countryside. So I will keep mine. That it is affordable is a plus anyway. The visit at the service station at the moment does not hurt that much as with my car or a big bike.

For me the lack of power, its less than perfectness and its limitations, make it a more fun bike. It presents more of a challenge than bigger, better bikes. I find it works well 2-up, if you aren’t in a hurry. Comfort might be an issue for a pillion and yourself, anything over an hour or two though. And it isn’t a big road bike. You can’t cover ground like you can on a GS, or Scrambler of course. Great video HH 👍🏼

Ear Plugs are the solution so you can't hear the noises. I made my own silicone plugs using dental impression materials. Sheep skin from a baby shop for your bum issue. Cut it to shape and sew in on elastic straps/ velcro tabs . Use laser marker to make sure your tyres are aligned ( the marks on the swinging arm can be out ). I don't think I have ever owned a bike that didn't have niggles; some I lived with , others I modified the bike to suit. For example, my Tiger 800 ( 2015 model) windscreen was poor for my height ( 180 cm) . I fitted a Madstad screen with off -road brackets to minimize movement. The screen rattled/ squeaked a lot on rough terrain. The benefits of the design far outweighed the squeaking, so I put up with it. I think the Himalayan sits in the cross over between Dual Sport and Adv bikes. It is better on roads than Dual Sports due to its weight ( more and low) and better off road than most ADV bikes ( cheap to repair, weight lower in frame, power in not so much as to need electronic modulation devices) . Having owned a Tiger 800Xcx which is a great bike for road and dirt road cruising, I eventually sold it mainly due to the weight distribution ( up high) and it is heavy unless you are a young big bloke and the fragility of the plastic on even a simple fall. I am riding a much modified DRZ400E now for ADV riding. It has better brakes, more power, better suspension than the Himalayan. In windy conditions however, the weight is up high ( 28L fuel tank doesn't help when full) and it feels like unstable at 70 mph. , especially when wet and dealing with the wind from our triple bogey trucks in Oz. If I lived in the U.K. I would probably have kept the Tiger and stayed away from green lanes

I bought a Himalayan last year as an every day ride to work bike, it replaced a 7 year old Honda which I did 60kmiles on. For the first couple of months I hated it. Now a year later it's been a brilliant bike , yeah the engine is noisy and a bit lacking in power, but the handling on bumpy back roads is ace, it does 90mpg even when I rev the tits off it, I recently bought a 650 continental as a weekend toy, lovely engine but gets a wriggle on down the same bumpy roads , really needs a steering damper. Come on royal Enfield shoe horn a 650 twin into himi frame and you'll have the best bike on the planet.

I like the bike overall for fuel efficiency , looks and fun ride, BUT am looking for something to replace it with that is more reliable. I began having vibrations in the speedometer at 1,300 km. I finally opened it up and found that the cheap thin plastic was cracking and deteriorating into a white powder and the screws were rolling around loose inside it. So I simply glued everything back into place with a rubber like polymer which made it vibration resistant. Now when any vibrations pop up on the bike, I simply use rubber and black silicon glue. Its holding together most of the front of the bike including cracked directionals. Then my rear swing arm bushing seized up at 1,500km and was squealing from being over torqued during assembly. RE threw some grease on the problem and it lasted a few thousand km. The bike has stalled several times on every ride, hot and cold from day one. I dropped the bike 4 times, all from stalling. Tried all the fixes minus the FuelX pro and new cam shaft, to no avail. And the list of problems I have had is extensive. Thank God for ON Two Wheels Ben. It is a great hobby bike if you are into mechanics and working on unsolvable mysteries that RE ignores. It has certainly absorbed many more hours of my time, than I have ridden it. I thought of buying the super meteor, but I would need more hours in the day for research and maintenance and I just haven't got the time. I am thinking of simplifying my life and just selling the Himmy and buying a V-Strom.

Recently sold my Himy- it was my first bike, rode it for almost 2 years. It was great for a first bike for someone interested in anything but highway cruising. Seat was always my biggest niggle.

But for a first, easy, low budget bike, it did ok for me. But I picked up a Tiger 800 and it's a whole new world.

I've got the Triumph Scrambler 1200 XE, and a monkey 125. The Scram is a fantastic bike, with a great engine. But there is a fair bit of weight, and bits are expensive. The fuel tank alone is £1350. Luggage options are limited with the high mount scrambler exhaust, meaning only a left side bag is an option. The official triumph rear rack can only take 2kgs in weight. But despite all this I bloody love it, the sound is amazing ( sp engineering slash cut exhaust). The cruise control is basic but works really well. Engine pulls like a freight train, and returns approx 55mpg, more if ridden sensibly. Take a scrambler out for a test ride, just be prepared to part with some cash though 🤣.

Maybe you are unlucky and have a 'Friday afternoon built' bike. 3 years on for mine at 25,000+ miles later, there has been no real issues. Take it to the byways at Nant Y Mock in Wales and test it there, my REH has been on there several times. PS.

Everything has an annoying factor to someone. The annoying factor with you is that you continually keep saying the same thing over and over again. Yes I do understand what you are attempting to do. But to hear the same words over and over again is a little annoying. It is like I am hard of hearing or learning that makes you repeat what you say, but I am neither. Try again.
