DO NOT BUY ADV like HIMALAYAN 450 IF | Himalayan 450 or Himalayan 452 

A great review and really made me think more clearly about getting this bike. Now I'm thinking a Ducati scrambler will be more suitable for me. Also thanks for speaking in English 👍

This is a video about why I should not buy a Triumph Tiger 660, right?

That’s a fair and honest review ,that flashing screen would drive me nuts it’s like a strobe light

You have stated very valid reasons why one should not opt for the new Himalayan. I agree with most of the reasons. Here are some add-ons. 1. You forgot to mention the weight of the luggage when lifting the bike. A common use case scenario will be when one goes on a long ride with saddle bags/panniers+ Top box+tank bag. The weight of all these things + the weight of the bike + and low traction will surely be a pain in case you ride solo. 2. One big drawback for the new Himalayan as well as the old one is the tube-type tires (till the time the company plans to bring the tubeless version). During long rides, it will surely create unnecessary hassle due to the unavailability of petrol pumps and mechanics at high altitude regions. Trust me doing a tube-type tire repair all by yourself is no joke. 3. Seat height is still one big issue among short riders. This issue gets amplified when one is doing off-road terrain. Also, how comfortable it will be while commuting is still a big question.

I like your honesty about the bike your right people should be made aware of the down side of the bike ,there is no perfect bike any where ,but the hamalyan is a good bike what it’s designed for

Hey Jatin, this is my first view of your video. Very useful to make decision. I really appreciate the information you shared. Keep up the good work bro.

Thanks .. all this just inclines me more towards super meteor.. hoping SM v2 comes with H452 instrument cluster

Great video. Thank you!

Brother as you asked about opinion or something whatever, do more Vlogs bro i know your busy with your life but in youtube need consistency and we need more Vlogs I’m watching your Vlogs since 2021. You edit your Vlogs as a Wow. We need that Vlogs from you.

Why so many people are disliking it,he was just explaining something to the new riders who are going for adv bikes.

Thanks bro for educating prospective buyers of Himalayan for taking informed buying decisions 👏 👍 👌

Nice video jatin. I personally liked the last one 400 😂 reasons to buy himalyan

Great video, thanks for sharing.

No offence: Point - 1 - Not everyone is Sagar Sheldekar, in city like Delhi, no cornering. Point - 2 - I have seen people riding Race bikes on road, definately your contradictory statement, not everyone is riding on tracks. Point - 3 - Acceptable point, people are riding Classic 350 and I think it is somewhere near 200+ kg. Point - 4 - Accepted this point.

I think 4th one you can get the tubeless spoked tyres, the 3rd one is easy for me, I deadlift 200kgs. But I have yet to decide to go for it for the first two reasons, the heating is the only part I am more scared of.

21 inch wheel of my xpluse, give me lot of confidence. I didn’t need to see the pothole. And have zip it 124 kmph, butter smooth

Bro good to have the review , was about to book the Himalayan for my touring experience . So what would u suggest for under 5 Lakh budget for touring purpose.

Hai nice video. Want to ask a question. For city ride and highway rides I am confused to buy a bike. Between Triumph speed 400 and Bajaj dominar and Triumph Scrambler 400x and Harley Davidson x440. Which is the best option?

Cornering is difficult for all heavy bikes especially royal Enfield, also tube less tyres are option in Himalayan 450, also they are launching roadster 450 and scram 450 with lots of features, let's wait and see

HM Scram 452 Whould be Perfect For All Types of thing But Still we can Buy HM 452 For Many Reasons as many People are Buying Reborn Classic 350 Which is Also 195Kg and Standerd Weight is 198-200Kg and Riding in All Cities, Villages, Terrains can Handle Very Easily. So HM 452 Whould be Still Good to Buy Because it is Good Looking, Very Powerful, Refined, More Features, More Premiums , and Also Good Personality, Good Tashan than the Classic 350cc. 💪🙏🏻

Bro i am looking for an offroader bike, i need a bike with good seating comfort and less shoulder pain prefers upright seating, can i buy Himalayan 450?..asking you is because i dont find anyone mentioning cons about this bike and also am bit scared, since it is new to the market and my friend faced very bad experience from himalayan 411 when it was initially launched. Afterall it is my hard earned money and i dont want to be a part of companie's issue testing. Please advise.

My BSA C-15 250 is very lite. It is great off road. My Triumph Turd is great off road too.I know that the Triumph guys hate the B SA 250 singles but they are really good motorcycles.

Hi Jatin, need honest advice. Currently I have Dom 400, done 85k kms... And confused to buy my next bike. I do ride 5% off road and 95% road. Which bike would u suggest.

I took test ride i went like a rocket i didnt observe variation in bangalore traffic...may be in future ? i may face plz provide reply

❤ thanks for the valuable information if someone rides the Himalayan in the city. Please suggest some options for those who need a city ride with the feeling of Himalayan.... I am waiting for your reply. Once again thanks for the valuable information ❤

Don’t know if it makes sense of you comparing the Himalayan with a tiger. Other than the fact that both have 21 inch spoke wheel I don’t see any other similarities. My opinion is that it is on the rider as well as to how a bike handles. There are many Africa Twin owners who love to take their bikes on twisties. It also comes with 21 inch front wheel.

Tubeless tyre will be provided to himi 450 by RE later after they pass homologation test. Outside india they will sell himalayan 450 with tubeless tyre.

Just install Tubliss system , ive installed it on my last 5 dual sports and adv bikes . Its the best product ever made.and never worry about flats.again! Just carry a plug kit and small air compressor. Worse comes to worse you can run flat to get you home or safe place to fix.

True, applicable for all 400Cc

Greeting Jatin.. I am looking for a suggestion. I am 37 and have owned Thunderbird 500 and currently avengar 220. I downgraded from TB to Avenger because of Quality issues of RE and dont want to own any RE now. I am looking for a touring bike as i feel avengar is little underpowered with pillion and luggage., I want bike which cn cruise at 100 like breeze. I have drill down to KTM 250 Adv, suzuki vstorm 250, Honda highness. What would you suggest among these for my usage. The point i am worried about these 3 models is. KTM is costly, Suzuki , will i get spares and service in future? . Honda, Bigwing only and feels really bulky . Thanks. Would you like to suggest any other , i would appreciate.

Interesting! Cheers

Thank you. I now avoid the tiger, and buy a hymalian

Useful information

Jatin bhaiya Triumph scrambler 400X TR series ka jo engine h wo long term me kaise rehga. I mean main jo bike leta hu eo kavi sell out neh karta. Please suggest I want to buy that bike

I purchased a ktm 250 adv and am struggling with height, weight and overall dimensions in the city. Just like you I have to use a lot of muscle every day which is really difficult being a skinny guy.

Because of your 4 reasons, i had sold my old himalayan BS6 after riding only 1500 KM.

Thn if use bike predominantly in city n all 4 conditions are actually fulfilled then which bike I will buy for city as my budget is 3-3.5 lacs

nice! i thought you will be blasting 452 with many negative comments. However, at last there are 40 reasons to but himalayan 😛

If you want to ride in the city then go for Hunter 350, Scram 411 or wait for roadster 450 or 452 is it correct ?

One reason is enough to avoid Himalayan .. It’s from Royal Enfield . Fun apart I also own Himalayan … faced many issues within 2 years of riding.. so it’s my personal experience, i will say the same thing avoid Himalayan , major probem is they are not reliable.

How is suspension in Himalayan, what is difference between suspension in bikes like Himalayan and cruiser bikes like meteor

5:10 The lift alone deserves 2xLikes. Hurrah!

After 20k+ miles on my Africa Twin on road only, I’ve never ever had a problem with my 21” front wheel. My riding was mixed highway and city commuting.

Good review bro

For me old Himalayan is best. That change whole prospective of riding in every road of India.

Nice vlog

Subbed 😎

Bro what about yezdi adventure should i go for it

👍

Jatin bhai, Best thing about this video is that you showed the clips from your ride to prove your points. I am currently riding Honda CB350 Hness. Height 5 feet 6 inch ( 7 inch with boot). I want to upgrade. Which bike would you suggest brother. KTM 390 ADV (standard and SW version), Himalayan 452 etc is in my mind. You can also suggest a different bike. Budget 5L (can go up if it offers value)

Any idea what is the turning radius?

WOW, 4 reasons not to buy, and 40 to buy. I like the odds......😀

Himalayan is a good entry price for a genuine off-road however the Tigers purr with the triple has never been surpassed by any of the competition.

Please telltechniques how to lift such heavy bik

1. Best I would take my bike is on the highways and Soft roading at most, 2. I would love to see other bikes on this 452 platform, like a Roadster version

i am looking for a bike with tubeless tyres(scared of punctures) that can handle highways fast and also city potholes and speedbreakers without slowing down. i think only new 450 can do it.

Bro no offence but did you even drive New Himalayan and are you comparing Tiger of that scale vehicle with Himalayan. It would be stupidest comparison ever. I waited for Hinalayan for 3 years and I don't think any of these things you mentioned are going to bother me. Plus the price point at which I am getting Himalayan & also the service network of RE is worth considering. 1. From the series of videos it has been observed that Himalayan is powerful, beginner friendly, handles well on twisties even with 21 inces 2. I love stance of bike which looks big on city roads.. I would prefer comfortable Hinalayan for my daily 15km office ride 3. I had 200kg thunderbird which I dropped multiple times but didn't face much difficulty lifting it after couple of drops 4. RE is launching tubeless rims soon.

But, the engine is nice, at least it has more torque than other high reving same power engines (although lesser rev range). I am waiting for meteor 452.

Hello sir can u suggest a bike under 3 lakh . touring bike with pillion..

Cool.....'Pain in the neck'😅.

Wrong about the tyres on Himalayan 452. They are tubeless. Cross that one off your list. Heavy in an advantage in windy conditions but, yeah it is hard to lift, especially if you do it wrong like you did. Try lifting it like you would a Harley; back to bike and take little steps.

And then theres someone who scraped the footpegs in Manali on the new Himalayan.

I agree and disagree both on everything you said. I have just got the 452 and been riding it in the city. On top of that I am a really short rider as well. What you're stating is a common factor with ALL ADV motorcycles. And I suggest try riding the new Himalayan on roads and twisties. It is surprisingly easy to maneuver around every bent or on a straight.

I carnt believe that rear sprocket the teeth are worn way past safe

Muito obrigado, não vou comprar. Estou habituado à Vespa GTS que tem roda de 12 polegadas e pesa 160 kg.

For me its only 4th one. Hoping to get tubeless.

You look a bit like Elvis Presley 👍

Waiting for 40 reason to buy Himalayan and plz compair with 390 ADV

Bangalore is heaven for off road

that anurag salgaonkar touch😅

If our hometown in hilly areas So We can go for it .

Waiting for the 40 reasons vlog ❤️

These bikes are not at all practical in city traffic.

When tubeless option is coming ?

Bro you could have at least rented a Himalayan while giving its review rather than showing a triumph.😂😂😂

Indian roads are off roads because of pits🤣🤣🤣

Great Dude.. the epic dialogue of the year is "Himalayan has never been as close to tiger as it is now". 😂 Don't forget that your comparing Himalayan (approx 4 lakhs) with a bike that have 2.5x price ( 10 lakhs +). Waa beta waa😂.

Mera Sapana Hero Passion+

title should why not to by ADV

Pain in the neck 😂😂 I heard you 🤣🤣

हम लेंगे तो हिमालयन ही हार्ले 2kodi ki nhi h mutne layak nhi हार्ले 440

Give me money bro I will buy tiger instead of himalyan

Why are you on any bike. You say the bikes to heavy to lift easy don't drop it. It's to tall I'm 5 foot 3' inside leg of 26 inches. I lowered my himalayan . I do all of my riding on the open roads. I changed my tyres to metzeler tourance. What a different. . I buy a bike and run it then I start changing things so the bike will do what I want .millions are spend in research and development in every bike. Stick to riding the bike rather than doing a review on them to compare a the himalayan against the triumph. 😂 no no no . I couldn't review my himalayan against my speed triple. Yes it's been lowered as well. . Rant off . Get back to riding.

Buy a platina

Himalayan not for you.. 😂

Bro what the F.

Bhai....Paisa bolta hai....Indian market not USA...OK...
