Impressive. Imagine actually preparing it up as a proper enduro! I’ve seen people cutting 15-20 kilos off of it. This bike has great potential

I’m 65 now and have ridden mountain trails in the Pacific Northwest of the US, road raced, and owned and ridden MANY sport bikes, dirt bikes, and dual sports. I currently ride a 701 because of its relatively light and has plenty of power. I state this not because I’m proud of everything, but rather I feel very fortunate and privileged to have had all of those experiences. A bike like the Himalayan is appealing to me because a day is coming when the Husky will be too much and the Himi would allow me to continue in something I love. Heck… it hassles me now !
It’s the Leatherman of motorcycles.

as an ex-enduro racer i have to say, getting this thing in the top 40 on stock susps, either this bike is way better than we think or you are a monster of a rider cuz gaaaawd dayum son! Top 40 on a Himi?!!

Adam Riemann, Itchy Boots and this video. All the marketing the Himalayan will ever need.

Massive respect, you're probably the only one that has taken one of these on an enduro run and crushed it on top of that, earned my sub.

It's rare to see someone push bikes to their limits but at the end of the day it's the question people really want to know at the end of the day, what is the maximum performance this vehicle can achieve offroad?

This paints a great picture, what a solid bike, honestly incredible for the price point.

The one thing I don't like about it are those fenders being so close to the tires, seems like something could get lodged in there and cause problems.

I dropped my 3 day old Himi 450 on the Bridgestone trail at the ABR. It was the first time I had done any off road riding, the guy behind ran over my leg but I finished the trail without any further incident, well chuffed and it was still good to ride home on the Sunday.
Waiting to get its first service done and hopefully find some more trails near me

Love it….. the abuse you put the Himi through, worth it for a great advert for Royal Enfield 🤘🏻🏁

[risingphoenix]

Now that is what you call a true enduro test on a Himi. 😂
Epic! 👍🏿

“Almost lost my fingers…but posted some good times”! Love this guy. Next up, Chris races a Roman chariot in the ISDE. “Hey…it’s got TWO wheels” 🤷‍♂️

The original Himalayan was developed as an India-only adventure bike to tackle rough trails in the Himalaya mountains - "the roof of the world" and the toughest highest terrain imaginable.

After successful test rides in the unforgiving mountains that lent the bike it's name RE management then decided to unleash the Himalayan on the world...

[GordieTaylor-re]

Fantastic video Chris, you rode the wheels off the Himi, amazing riding style. That bike could shift !!!
Didn't know about "Bike World" until I found this video, looks like my type of channel(Super).
I'll spread the word in Northern Ireland.✊
Love the Rallies and the relaxed friendly people that compete🙌

[geofftheriddler]

Usually a bike only becomes iconic in hindsight - this thing has done it pretty much at release!

[BlackThor]

Awesome video Chris! I'm yet to find someone that has put the Himi through some hardcore proper testing! Well done you & BW team! 👍👍

[STARK]

Loved the fact that Indian bikes are loved by everyone!

[fueledbypassion]

Bought it few months ago, This motorcycle has been a great companion 🙌🏼

[tomgilson]

This guy makes me want to buy every bike he reviews!

[AndrewSmith-hygl]

Absolutely brilliant Chris, so well done - mega star stuff 😀👋👍

[skotty]

This may be my next bike. But at 61 probly won't be thrashing it like this but good to know it can take it.

[thefastelephant]

Impressive footage and like how you gave her the beans ;) That is exactly what I reasonate to as a Himi 411 owner. Mightly potential when taking her in Enduro Territory and you can ride her to work too the next day for the whole week and resume enduro the same weekend with nothing else but a different riding gear setup. Its too much fun on the Himis.

[BillyBoblovesthedirt]

My first thought was Bark Busters. Essential on any bike ridden in the dirt.
