Royal Enfield Himalayan [2015-2023] price in Kolkata

It's quiet on the expensive segment as per the specifications. But it's a killer machine. The road presence is amazing and has a great effect of aura on the people. The mileage is average (approx. 26kmpl). But totally disappointed by the services available at my place. Overall my experience is very good since it is one of my dream bike

About the Reviewer

The buying experience was just normal, nothing overwhelming. Waited for four months after booking my himalayan. I have ridden over 20000 kilometers and it always put a smile on my face. Himalayan has its own charm, it's a conversation starter. I have taken my Himalayan to the mountains to the beach to the plateau, cruised on highways, ridden on dusty roads, and muddy roads, and ridden on rains, it has never disappointed me. It definitely feels like a big bike. The seat is cushiony. The suspension and shockers both are soft but accurate when riding at 100+kmph. The handlebar is wide and it helps to maintain good posture so that you can ride long without breaking. The engine can run all day long without any issues. The road presence of this bike is superb. You can do an unlimited number of modifications. I named my bike pokkhiraaj. Maintenance is a big part of a bike of its size. There are some parts from re which are never any good and even the service center guys accept that. The bike never looks old. About the cons of Himalayan - the cone set or the ball racer will definitely be going to be damaged pretty soon. I've switched to the ntn bearing for the cone set and it's 10 times better than re. The stock ceat tyres are useless. I had ridden over 11500 km on the stock and received at least 3 punctures avg on every 1000 kms. Currently using the mrf mogrip and it's much much better, with no puncture till now. On a long trip, the bike definitely wants the tubeless spoke wheels and the rider feels the need for it but eventually it'll add more cost.

I am satisfied after buying this bike. I have an royal enfield thunderbird 350. But this Himalayan has a great experiences. I am using this bike for daily office use and I am satisfied. But if royal enfield modified after fitted the tubeless tyres in this Himalayan segment then it will be a great bike ever in this century.
