Congratulations on your first proper off-road adventure! Keep practicing and have faith in your Himalayan's abilities. Once you have mastered the techniques you'll be amazed where this bike can get you. Where I live there are plenty of routes with 1:10 inclines and several that are steeper than 1:4. I don't know why but I always find going downhill waaaay scarier than going uphill because the Himalayan handles the terrain with ease and feels very sure footed.

Awesome episode - next level production quality. The route looked great, and some good riding partners, and top drops. Know the struggle with those tyres on the Himi though - would you consider changing to a profile with a bit more grip? Also, you call that single track, I definitely call that a footpath!
@2WheelFreak4 жыл бұрын
Riding On Eggshells Thanks guys! 🙌 I have now put a set TKC80 tyres on, will hopefully see a difference! Yes, footpath... single footpath.. track type thing 🤪🤣 The guys we’re great, very helpful!

This looks like it was a lot of fun, but too much for me and my Africa Twin. I might have given it a go if I had a Himalayan.
@2WheelFreak4 жыл бұрын
Gerald Prost That’s one of the reasons for getting a Himalayan.. I wanted to practice off road on a heavy bike I didn’t mind dropping! There is a person in the group with an Africa Twin. It’s easier with support advice and as long as the bike has protection bars it should be ok.
