Personally, I like my 100whp, and I'm quite happy doing 100+kph on gravel on my MT09... I've been riding dirt for 30 years though :-) Glad you're enjoying the Himalayan, you're right that it's more than enough bike!

I bought a 30 horsepower bike in 2002, when many were still buying 600cc and 1000cc sport bikes with the power to go 150 mph plus, uncomfortable and overkill. The low power bikes for 60 mph or less are a lot more popular now, to save money.
