Himalayan 450 CHASSIS Broke - My Honest Opinion

Most appropriate description! Fan boys are way beyond worse than the product! Product may turn less threatening compared to those rowdy fan boys!!!😂

[@vilaskulkarni3147]

​@saurabhtewari9920 I am 56, have had 3 RE products : Bullet (1994-1997), Bullet again (2006- 2016) and Himalayan 411 (2018- 2022). First one was simply terrible and it was belonging more to the guarage than to our parking lot. Second was somewhat better fortunately (purely luckily) and the third one was again replete with all sorts of issues piling up my frustration with RE products (but we hardly had any other option if we wanted to ride other than 100-150 cc bikes then. My father started with 1974 made Yezdi 250, till 1994. I drove it between 1986 and 1994. That was built like a gun and hadn't failed us ever. I couldn't love any other bike more than old Yezdi 250. Last RE product Himalayan 411 made me realise forever that RE is off the shelf for us. Now, we have multiple options, ranging from Triumph, Suzuki, Honda, KTM etc. Now gunning for 2025 KTM 390 for continuing the riding sojourn. No RE again, ever!!!!😡

[@the_sambar_vada]

In 2014 I had 2 options the newly launched KTM 390 duke and second was the classic desert storm. I went with my heart cuz I had been obsessed with RE. Feels bad that RE left such a huge design flaw in the Himalayan 450. Crash Guard or not it is a flaw and RE has to accept it. I upgraded to a 390 ADV last year and have been extremely happy with it.

Coneset issue plus frequently failing RR-Unit issue as well. I've ridden my INT650 for 25k kms and within this 3 RR-Units have failed and I'm currently running 4th RR-Unit. First one failed at 5,000 kms Second failed at 11,000 kms Third failed at 23,000 kms First two were replaced under warranty but third one failed after warranty was over hence I had to pay 2,400 rupees for the same. I've got no electrical mods or anything additional installed on my bike ever and RE Service center could never comeup with a reason for this frequent failure.

Thank you for this much needed video. The difference in booking experience is very evident when you go to a RE, KTM vs a brand like Honda. As you rightly said that we need to look at it as a machine and not with so much emotions that the brand might use against us. I'd booked a Himalayan in December and had to cancel it later because the response from the salesman to all the issues pointed on the internet was "Its RE, what to do". I feel RE should realize that they are no longer selling 1 lakh rupee Bullets and Classics alone. Only prices have increased, customer service behavior remains the same.

[@ajithgopi8791]

Until and unless People start to give importance to quality and stop going behind emotions. RE will not change . If any complaints happen we cannot fight against them in court.only thing we can do is to stop investing your hard earned money in Their products. Me too had several quality and reliability issues with My INT 650. If we say Any complaints they will say its common in all bikes. We indians as majority of the middle class and we always look for the best option available in our budget , fall into their advertisement gimmicks and their false heritage selling ads and we compromise on quality. Its because of Honda and Triumph they have at least tried something . Otherwise They still won't bring any improvement. It's high time. we should start giving importance to quality.

[@regorohan]

a motorcycle made for hardcore off road needs a proper cradle chassis below the engine like the Himalayan 411. if the engine is taking all the load instead cradle frame then you need a solid beam under the tank, like the motocross bikes. in case of Himalayan 450, the beam under the tank is too weak . I think this is a serious design flaw and in the coming days and months this will be proved to be true. best of luck to Royal Enfield .

Bhai 390 ka tank crack ke baare me baat karo thoda. A rider almost lost his life, he couldn't fight with the brand and he gave with major burn injuries. I was one among the people whose tank got cracked within 1 year. Also the 390 Adv still has issues, you just may not have encountered those or you just don't want to talk.

[@virajvrooms]

By that logic companies will have to take responsibility of all accidents. Fire caused by an impact is way different than chasis breaking mid way. As an owner it's the riders responsibility to inspect the leakages before hitting long rides. My 390 ADVs metzelers developed cracks. KTM happily replaced those for free even after the warranty ended. However, I lost 3 months of my riding life because I was too cautious about using a bike with a possible hazard.

[@TURBOSAINT_]

The owner himself claimed that the chassis broke because of the aftermarket guard and missing bolt for engine guard.

[@kcnanand]

This particular motorcycle you can see the missing bolt that connects the chassis to the engine. the weight and vibration of the engine without the supporting bolt may have caused the chassis break.

[@ungalpunga]

There's extra stress on the right side of the chassis because of how the suspension on Himalayan 450 is setup. One suspension is for rebound and one suspension is for damping (SFF - Separate Fork Function), hence the little twist of the chasis which causes extra stress on that region of the chassis.

[@amitkumarbasu3655]

Mr. Pattnaik, I'm one of your big fans; but this kind of videos are not accepted from you at all. I just don't understand why you are trying to defend Royal Enfield for this serious life killing issue! Breaking of chassis of a motorcycle and that of in a running condition is a damn serious issue at any point of time. So, definitely there is a serious fault on the part of the Company. A customer has the right to install accessories along with crash-guards on his/her motorcycle, but that doesn't mean that it's the reason for the chassis break. Why does a customer install a crash-guard? For the purpose of safety mainly. Because RE doesn't provide same or any other accessory with their motorcycle in such cheaper price. So, customers don't have any other choice left than to buy aftermarket crash-guards and/or accessories to save their own lives. A life is more precious than a motorcycle, whether it's a costly one or economic. With this they need to save their motorcycle too. Because mostly people do have a single motorcycle and they do purchase that with their hard-earned money to fulfill their dream of having a good motorcycle. Everyone doesn't have two or three motorcycles or more than that like you or any other celebrity rider. So, they will definitely opt for crash-guards mainly. Rather, breaking of chassis is not a new problem in RE motorcycles. You also know that. Then why are you defending their crime? Yes, crime. RE is doing crime by providing substandard and poor quality material in their products. An amount of Rs. 3 Lakh or 4 Lakh is not a too little amount, but yes; obviously in comparison with other international motorcycle brands RE's products are little bit cheaper. But who told RE to produce cheaper products? Why doesn't RE take some more money or make some less profit to provide better quality products? If RE needs take Rs. 15K to 20K more for providing better quality raw materials, etc. then why it's not walking on that way? Who stops RE from doing that? Nobody, just nobody. But no, Mr. Siddharth Lal wants to make money by risking his customers. You too have several motorcycles. You also have installed several aftermarket accessories, crash-guards, etc. on your costly motorcycles, your many riders friends have also done same on their costly flagship motorcycles, like BMW, Kawasaki, Suzuki, Triumph, etc. How many of you have faced such a problem by installing aftermarket crash-guards or accessories? Then why it happens with RE motorcycles only? So, it's a clear thing that RE products are not up to the mark. Therefore, my dear friend, you, being an influencer, create pressure on RE to produce good quality products instead of defending it. Don't be a spokesman of RE, stand in favour of general customers, who are facing such tremendous life killing threats from RE products for year after years. RE has not made you Bulu Pattnaik, the celebrity rider; we are the people for whom you have become Bulu Pattnaik. Thank you.

None of what he said made sense. Crash guards are made to endure hard crash or dragged in case of a fall or crash. Now it act exactly as a crumple zone works in the car. It does not let the impact go to the side pillars of the cars structural design or where the whole weight rest upon. If your chasis snap open without a reason mind you these bikes none of the two had a fall from a staggering height shows poor craftmenship and quality controls of RE mfgr unit. If you bike falls from a significant height let say 6 to 8 feets we might expect that but here the chassis snapped open by rode.above a speed breaker which is outright stupid because its a purpose built bike and not a regular commuter.

The white royal Enfield had crash guard installed. RE blamed it for the chasis break. But what was the exact reason for this black Himalayan? And are they covering this under warranty?

[@ertravellar]

I own 450... I want to install the crash gaurd so I'm following this very closely. What I have understood is that crash gaurd in whole is not the issue. Issue is with the bolts comes with it. The strength of the bolts may differ from the original bolts.

[@balajistudiohubli7804]

@bulu pattnaik sir, Kiran here from Hubli, please tell me about your Himalayan 450 bike, are you facing some issue in Tripper dash screen? I do own himalayan 450 but facing some problem in Tripper dash screen, while riding trip 1 & 2 gets reset automatically, it automatically get troggles up and down.

[@akshaymandavkar190]

@Bulu...I will share my opinion...when your bike falls chassi is not directly impacted...but when u install guard than it do get dmg and passes dmg to chasis too...now latest RE bikes guards are connected to critical joins of Chassi which create pressure point on it during fall ..now lets go back to old RE you can clearly see guards been mounted below the critical points with help of external clams and at time of accident guards breaks and absorbs dmg,bends and additionally under join breaks too...which avoids dmg to chasis...trust me i owe std 500 bs3 model and its been 9yrs...i beem doing off roading and long rides even had 1 or 2 accident where guards broken but never had chasi problem

[@virajvrooms]

That's a valid point. But RE did not come back with that reason. They clearly mention that the bolts were missing causing stress on the chasis.

[@shadow_realm47]

Just because you have never face issues doesn't mean other people won't, ye kya logic hai😂 bikes are meant to be modded with aftermarket parts and the first thing RE people get is a bigger crash guard as mounting point for after market lights. Some bike companies even give after market parts makers their bike before launch so that they can come up with accesories at launch RE is one of those companies... These aftermarket companies make standard stuff for all companies why doesn't their chasis break as well?

[@ksakshaykaushik3328]

Thanks sir for the information. Can you please help me choose between interceptor 650 and Himalayan 450 bike?which is better?or just go with honda highness cb350rs (but low on power)to avoid any such issues?

[@BuluBiker]

Definitely Himalayan is better all of them

[@indiacha]

The Quality of Accessories(helmet, handgloves, jackets etc) RE sales in their showrooms is actually much better then the bikes they sell.

[@BuluBiker]

This I totally agree, the accessories r good quality

[@LauraLasan69]

[@amol24aa]

Where is the crash guard in picture? If you see the cut portion ,it is symmetric, no bend on the rod.... why? Do you think owner of the bike is in favour of after market crash guard brand and that's why he removed the crash guard before taking pictures?

[@user-qq5kv2oq6x]

Crash guard chassis break issue is of a white 450 but this one Hanley black didn't had a crash guard on

[@ArpanGG]

Such well informed video. As you're using Scram 400, do you have any recommendations for a crash guard? Is the oem ones good enough to protect the bike and maybe your leg?

[@BuluBiker]

Oem ones Re good bro

[@jonswap9097]

Did you remove the crash guard? It is part of the structure. The remaining frame will fail if you remove the crash guard and continue to ride it. This is an intentional part of the design to save weight and reduce seat height and the evidence of this is that it requires a special coupler. This failure has only occurred on two bikes both of which had removed the crash guard.

[@subhadipbanerjee6791]

I(owned 2 RE bikes before) don't like RE, still I bought the Himalayan 450 and completed 9.5k kms with touring and offroad trails. will be pushing further. definitely it's not a quality machine but it does the job. now would I recommend it for longer run, NO. would I recommend for temporary fun, definitely yes. but I think this will be my final product from RE. finally getting tired of incomplete product quality.

[@MrWasim17]

I've been planning to buy next year. These are my consideration - Himalayan 450 2025 KTM 390 adventure. Scrambler 400x Which one would you recommend?

[@subhadipbanerjee6791]

@MrWasim17 purpose? we should analyse the purpose of the vehicle. mostly city, some touring and some offroad go with scram. some city, some offroad, long touring get the him450. attending trails every other weekend and leaning towards learning offroad skills, get the ktm390 2025. I'm thinking of selling my him450 once I can get some test rides of 390.

[@MrWasim17]

@@subhadipbanerjee6791 No city riding. Have other bikes and scooter for that. Not much of an off roader but need some suspension travel. Looking for long distance touring and should be reliable. I've heard issues with REs. I would prefer not to go to service centers often. Leaning towards 2025 390 adventure. Do comment.

🫨Now I'm confused... I couldn't understand your language well but, can understand the issues with Himalayan 450, but for the past 10months I'm planning to buy RE himalayan and now next month i planned to book one. Should i choose this or go with other option ?

Hello Sir, i have booked a Himalayan and my delivery date is 25th of June, i have already extended my budget to get one. i will not be able to add more to get Ktm-adv-390. What should you suggest, should i wait or get it, ignoring everything?

[@shebuelmoses4617]

Please go for a ktm adventure which is perfect in quality, features and performance! extend your budget a little bit, get the best, and ride peacefully and trustworthily!

[@virajvrooms]

I am a KTM 390 ADV owner. I would say buy one. However, keep in mind the what wise people say. Never buy the first batch. So with that logic you will be waiting until 2026 to buy a hassle free upcoming KTM 390 adventure. If not just go for the existing model. The upcoming one will not have tubeless tyres anyways.

When I test ride meteor 350 from showroom it had hauling soud from engine sometimes louder than exhaust that bike was only 14000 on odo. I drop the plan and bought Japanese machine. 😂 I am completely satisfied in it. My another colleague bought hunter it's ECU failed while riding it is 1 year old bike.

In 450 engine is stress member of chassis itself. As per RE both bikes have used crashguards and the bolt which was attached to frame and engine was removed/fall. These bikes have been running without bolts. This caused extra stress on back frame under tank. BTW both bikes fixed by RE under warranty.

[@NIRAJ-dl1tu]

Keep defending and enjoy shitty products

[@virajvrooms]

Not possible. If bolts fell off so would the crash guards.

[@shadow_realm47]

Every single bike in the market has engine as stress member😂 none of their chasis are breaking. For RE this is the first time but for the past 40 years every other company is using this design 😅
