My Himalayan is the same idea. Though I have the suspension and performance completely modified. It is actually pretty cheap on the whole to upgrade compared to a lot of other bike and it has been very transformative. I get 70 US miles to the gallon, all the services are cheap to do by yourself or cheaper than other bikes to have serviced, and it's super cheap to insure.

SO ACCURATE! even if it had slightly more power around 24-25bhp it would be nearly perfect

They designed it for the city , I bought mine for the back road twisting roads . It’s more fun than all of the big mikes I’ve ever owned . Power wise it’s perfect for state roads and great for back roads , it’s not a high speed highway bike ,maybe a few miles

Sounds like you're enjoying it mate

Excellent review Curtis. 👍 You really hit a lot of the talking points for the Hunter 350. Wouldn’t another 50cc’s or so make it into a super hoon machine?!😁 I decided to keep the 501. Took it for a ride with the Cush drive Warp9 wheel and just thought, who gives a d@mn if I can’t ride it to its potential, it’s cracking good stuff.

@onthebackwheel Месяц назад

Good choice. I bet it's a beast now with the cush drive, you'll regret it if you sell it!

@pinkiewerewolf Месяц назад

@@onthebackwheel That was my conclusion too. Because then I was thinking, get a DR 650, Honda CRF 300 L, or Rally to take its place and fill that gap. It took you younger guys to wake me up. 😂 A young guy at my local dealership told me to take it on a good ride again before I did the deal. Between you and Colin, I decided to give it a good run. The bike of course ran great and seemed smoother. The 501 has crazy aggressiveness when it gets downshifted on pavement. It really grabs. While that was still there the Cush drive helped tame it a bit. Now I think I can live with the high performance beast. Plus, I would have put money into a 300 or DR 650 and still wouldn’t have had the capabilities or lightweight of the 501. So, thanks go to you and Colin.👍

@@pinkiewerewolf that's it. She's a dirt bike, treat her like one! You can't best multiple bikes hey

@pinkiewerewolf Месяц назад

@@onthebackwheel For sure! I’m covered for every area except a sidecar at this point. 😂

@@pinkiewerewolf you know what to do then 😂

That little thing looks like a blast for town traffic

@onthebackwheel Месяц назад

Really enjoying it!

@stevesanelli90 Месяц назад

Great in town review Crazy Man Curtis! Splitting up & down the streets. The RE is a do it all little bike if you're not in a hurry. Looking forward to your final review. What's next? How is the progress of the Kwaka? That's the next beast to grace the bush me thinks! Cheers. Bet you're hanging to try the 450MT!

@retiredwaterdoctor 2 месяца назад

Lane splitting...great single track...needs some ruts and sand...😁😁😁. When are you going to try the new 450 Himalayan....? Garth

@onthebackwheel Месяц назад

I'm waiting impatiently for an opportunity to ride the 450 mate 😂

@tbillington 2 месяца назад

Looks like a great little bike. How do you find the vibes at different speeds?

@onthebackwheel 2 месяца назад

Pretty good TBH. She's certainly no highway cruiser but for the odd ride up to highway speeds, no issues at all with vibrations

@Danziman78 2 месяца назад

I wonder if the new 450 Himalayan engine would be better suited to what you need to for better acceleration.

@onthebackwheel 2 месяца назад

I think so. Keen to try it out

@YA-kl7ny 3 дня назад

Fuel economy ? I would do with this Bike a trip from Germany to Turkey without doubt

@onthebackwheel 3 дня назад

It's extremely economical. From memory it gets about 3 litres per 100km

@rmcdudmk212 Месяц назад

Looks like a pretty nice machine for city and commute riding. Probably needs an exhaust swap to git it 1 or 2 more horse power.

@onthebackwheel Месяц назад

True, they would be nice

Hey, Can you do a video of best tyre for Scramblers ?

@onthebackwheel Месяц назад

If I get time in the future, for sure

@CaptLawrence Месяц назад

personally after owning the bullet 500 for a decade I cant see the reason other than price to own this model over the classic.

@onthebackwheel Месяц назад

Fair enough. What about the new 650?

@CaptLawrence Месяц назад

@onthebackwheel I owned the continental 650 twin the first year it came out awhile back. That was a great bike and I rode all over the place on it. The interceptor is pretty rad as well those little twins are where it's at for RE. Unfortunate relay mechanics though they don't hold up in the rain.

@onthebackwheel Месяц назад

@@CaptLawrence Ah nice. I like the look of the interceptor, nice looking machine
