New Royal Enfield Himalayan Onboard Footage With Chris Northover

Join Chris onboard on some crazy Indian roads on the launch of the new Royal Enfield Himalayan. #royalenfield #himalayan #royalenfieldhimalayan

Thank you for this great video Chris. And that guy on the Classic 350 - unbelievable 😱😱😱 Who needs an off road bike if you can do it on a Classic 350 😂

[@chaitanya5197]

That guy on classic 350 was lunatic 🔥🔥

[@luddite6239]

Thanks for this gem! Just what we need to brighten up a drizzly day in Blighty! The way that 350 Classic handled the unmade tracks makes me wonder why they even bothered with the Himalayan at all! The Royal Enfield ad department can put their feet up for the rest of the year - just show any prospective buyers Chris's video and they'll be signing on the dotted line before the first wheelie!

This was so much fun to watch, especially coupled with yesterday’s release about Chris’s role in developing the new Himalayan. I’m currently laid up, and it’s a true blast to ride vicariously (and with no risk of injury apart from spilling my coffee). I look forward to seeing this little bike in the US later this year.

[@BikeWorldTVshow]

Sorry to hear that, get well soon!

[@bsmukler]

Thanks! I seem to rack up surgeries due to exercise (which I largely do in order to improve fitness for riding my motorcycles). Clearly, motorcycling is much safer than exercising. I last rode to MotoGP (California to Texas) on a Panigale V4S, and my aim is to heal from foot surgery in time to ride a V4 Rally to the track in April. Can’t show up to Ducati Island sans-Ducati. Since it’s my left foot in dry dock, I have thought about riding backwards. Need better mirrors for that.

[@Bemoto]

Those roads look brilliant fun, although not for the faint hearted!

[@Whatreally123]

yup. There are some insane roads in these regions. Checkout "The Cliffhanger - World's most dangerous road" and "Sach Pass". 2 of my favourite bonkers roads. (although the cliffhanger route is now closed and alternate route has been made cos it was that dangerous)

[@shrirangpatil007]

Watching it felt more like a video game than a reality. This man has the balls of titanium! But the one who was riding that Classic 350 ahead of him came from another planet !!!!!!!

[@twowheeledparadox]

I don't know what's more impressive - Chris' epic ride on the Himalayan or that Classic 350 being ridden hard like an adv bike!! I hope we will see more!

[@The1977andi]

Im more impressed with the 350👍👍

[@percentbigfoot]

ppl underestimate the 350's a lot haha.

[@niborski2997]

CN is the perfect ambassador/in-put developer for RE. He can ride any bike skillfully, off-road, on road and on the race track, bursting with enthusiasm and a permanent smile on his face. A very happy man doing what he loves best. Most reviewers are road/race track, but Chris can do it all.

[@michaelmarconi]

Gorgeous. I rode those roads years ago on a Bullet, which was a blast but painful, especially if you tried to stand on the offset pegs. That new Himalayan looks like a brilliant tool for the job. Thanks Chris!

[@JohnBhaktul]

Am I watching WRC Rally Racing! This is bonkers!

[@martinkeefe7107]

The best 450 road test on KZbin Brilliant 😅

[@BISONBHARGAVA]

Absolute madness this video! Loved every second of it. No words were needed to explain the performance of the Himalayan 450! Perfect demonstration of skilled riders with a capable motorcycles. (both the Himalayan 450 and the Classic 350) 0:28 Why take the easy way when you take the fun way 🤣

[@bcab7955]

I've seen plenty of journalists lately test this bike in this region but always thru the lens of a leisurely cruise. Leave it to Chris and the team to give us the controlled chaos style of riding we come to expect and its appreciated. 😄

[@ticthedog6095]

👍 Great skills Royal Enfield should put you on a Himalayan for the 2025 Dakar

[@AnthonyDonnellyTT]

Great riding brother, but go easy eh... We need more videos... My dream biking destination.

[@richardprosser5026]

The roads still look like you’re in 🇬🇧

[@biswajitbarik1724]

Thank you.🥲

[@Doandso]

Pure bliss !

[@W00LFY100]

What utterly breathtaking scenery and a dream off-road playground 😍

[@shawntoronto7967]

Love watching you ride

[@nomading_in]

Better to ride a "slow" bike fast than a fast bike slow ...reopened rhe debate! What a different animal this Himalayan seems to be over its predecessor, be interesting to see what people do with it when it hits the UK.

[@claretbuck1882]

Ride it like you stole it 💪🏻

[@Dushyant933]

Any updates for scrambler 400x review?

[@jemstudio806]

That is mental. I was expecting to hear the Ugandan coffin bearers' music anytime now.

[@percentbigfoot]

insane haha bt looks so much fun. Jst dont make mistakes.

[@Whatreally123]

I have traversed the Himalayas and a lot of India on my Classic 500. That bike with all it's quirks was awesome. The torque it generated was amazing in the Himalayas. Sadly sold it off and now waiting to take delivery of the new Himmy 450 in a month or two.

[@arnoldschwarzenigga2268]

Racing with a 40 bhp Purpose built Offroader like Himyy 450 in this ( Almost No ) road in a Classic 350 ??!!!!!!!? Absolute Madlad ! ❤😂

[@percentbigfoot]

proper advert of men in general. 🤣

[@magaudion]

Very cool

[@headrace4863]

Yep… if you’re gonna send it, then send it. Fair play 🤜🤛

[@OnThrottle]

Woohoo, got a cameo! I’ve made it big.

[@iainrutherford184]

8:18 'talk about consequences'. I was just thinking about the amazing skill on the bike, the bike's ability and the extreme terrain. My thoughts were then wandering towards accident, injury and first responders, let alone onward transfer to a 'hospital'. All my thoughts were timed perfectly for the 18th second of the 8th minute 😂😂😂

[@nikeshkopa2]

Royal Enfield should release this video as an ad for Himalayan 450. That'll do!

[@musguelha14]

Can't wait until they're available for a test ride!

[@Sr.D]

Came for the Himalayan, stayed for the classic 350 ride 😮

[@bullsfan3705]

Very cool - and lots of crazy 😂

[@vibin.v]

03:18 Epic powerslide

[@chaisuwun]

ฝีมือการขับขี่ยอดเยี่ยม

[@hawkslayers1]

Chris you are one crazy dude I think your awesome 😂

[@murdocampbell4858]

Nutter mode….😳🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@janoschekheldderberge3446]

Wahnsinn! 😅 Ich kann kaum glauben, dass ihr Kumpel auf der 350 Bullet das hohe Tempo, welches sie auf der Himalayan vorgelegt haben, mitgefahren ist. 😂👍👍

[@prithvinayak8443]

Who's on ths classic?

[@Supercharged1976]

Any word on when you guys will get your hands on the BMW M1000 XR?

[@shubamnarayan4581]

Dakar India will be amazing 😂😂

[@simantadas5716]

You are in India 😍😍

[@jamesonpace726]

Meh, reminds me of Bayonne, NJ. Ok, no. No it does not. Not in the slightest....

[@jimmydickson8854]

Just go slower mate we get the picture how tough the bike is

[@BikeWorldTVshow]

Why go slower? Always go faster!

[@OOOUZ]

Moral of this video.. most of us in India don't need a Himmy, just a Classic 350 will do just find and is more capable than most riders :)
