BMW G310 GS : The best adv tourer on road The best comfort The best weight and handling No unnecessary sounds and maintenance issues like rusting, engine noise like Himalayan The cash you will be giving for BMW G310 GS will be worth it This is a best bike for peoples who want to settle and no other bikes u ll be buying in life Buy it

Versys 300 owner here I swapped the front sprocket from a 14t to a 15 tooth, the gears are longer, the bike makes less perceivable torque, still, even in the steepest hills, i rarely use 1st gear, keep in mind, if you use smooth tyres, they won't grab the dirt very well, giving you less sensation of torque, still, if you twist the throttle hard, the rear wheel will spin because the bike does make enough power in low revs, using 1st gear even with the longer gears is something to be careful of, the bike sends a little too much power to the rear tyre, it can be fun unless you're in a very uncomfortable situation, like loose fine dust on a corner on an uphill, that's where you don't want your rear wheel to spin, i use 2nd gear at most if i want to control the torque on my bike, maybe i use 1st gear in less than 1% of the roads I've ever ridden. I'm not saying it's as strong as a CRF, but the commentary is misleading because it makes you believe it's a weak bike that needs to use 1st gear a lot.

I wonder how no one would have ever imagined that a humble RE would ever contend against German and Japanese.

That last shot is epic and nice way to convey the message that RE is the one to choose!

I went through this process on my own and ended up with a '19 Himalayan Non-ABS. The Versys is as you described. The 310 felt like a BMW poser. Like buying a Mustang with a 4 cylinder engine. The Royal Enfield just felt right from the first 10 feet. I rode it first, and then rode it last and that made up my mind. Closing in on 1000 miles in 1 month and enjoying it more and more. If you desire to ride US interstates or many single track trails it is not the bike for that. If you stay within its limitations you will have a lot of fun with this bike.

Just completed Spiti on Himalayan bs4. It's a great machine. Feels like its Built for Himalayas.

This is the right way to do an automobile review. Unlike some channels which prefer making power movies with unnecessary high tech editing which have nothing to do with the automobile in the first place.

HIMALAYAN is simply the best option in the budget segment.................👍

I wish royal enfield could come up with a more equipped version of the himalayan , like mobile phone companies do. A Himalayan PRO sort of bike with switchable abs/traction control, little bit more power, and optional alloys plus tubeless tyres combo. liked the review though. it's time Autocar took care of us bikewallas as well.

I appreciate that you lot aren't just tarting up the Himalayan; As simplistic as this sounds, the bike is what it is. Not many frills, fairly simple, not hugely refined but for the price it is easily the most capable bike in this segment. At the end of the day, it's about getting you there and back in relative comfort, and as a new Himalayan owner myself I can say that the 1100km I've ridden since my purchase 12 days ago have all been comfortable and satisfying. Even the 2019 US spec model has it's quirks (nothing that isn't easily mended), but the bike is ultimately worth every bit of money I paid for it, and quite a bit more. The saddle is very accomodating, and at 186cm tall I flat foot the bike with my knees slightly bent. Calling the bike stable is a huge understatement. Due to the weight all being so low, it's also easy to right if you accidentally tip the bike on it's side on a trail, and with the extra torque vs. it's competition being delivered at low revs, the bike is ideal for carrying gear. I couldn't be happier with the purchase and am looking forward to getting it fully broken in so I can start throwing power modifications at it ;)

After owning a cl 350 for a long period of time i have recently exchanged it for RE HIMALAYAN ABS, and for the past 3 weeks i have been testing its potential, and to my suprise ,its doing great. And i dont kno why complaining about speed in tours, we dont need that. The best part is its simplicity and the second part is its super easy to wash. If you have done offroading you will understand what i m saying. All around performance, i d say go for himalayan.

A 650 is going to weight more requiring stronger frame, upgraded suspension, bigger/better brakes, etc. If they can keep the weight down low and manage the extra heat well it should be a big seller in the US. I am glad I got a '19 non-ABS version. It is the 3rd bike in my stable and low cost to buy and own. I don't try to pretend it is something it isn't and when used within its limitations it is a fantastic motorcycle.

The Himalayan is much more expensive here in Czechia. It costs almost the same as Versys X300 and it still seem to sell well.

One of the best test ride videos I’ve ever seen! Flawless commentary with just the right amount of sarcastic wit. Relevant valid assessments and real world judgment. I want more of that ....thanks. Carl E.from Texas

Thanks a lot really longing for this video

I have a 2017 kawasaki versys x300 and I have had it off road. Yes the seat sucks fix = seat concepts cover and foam I weigh in at 260 and find the ride is somewhat hard so I call bs on to soft. and aside from tires the grip is ok just don't get into mud or soft sand but i will be fixing that with tires this year. so where is the honesty?

What a great comparison! Not many people compared all 3 at the same time!

That was a great video! Good information and funny!

Great reviews guys. Previously used to look at powerdrif but now they are moved towards making Cinematography.

Sharp, witty and great review best in the business :)

Loved the narration...

When I was a kid, i used to think that RE is nothing but bullet and i never liked bullet but now the time has changed. I love the Himalayan and their 650 twins. One of my riding buddies own a Himalayan "BS3" and he never complained about that bike despite doing a trip from Patiala to Jaisalmer twice and nothing happened to it.

It's weird man.. for the rest of us , the versys x comes with two panniers. I did some reading, apparently India law requires the left side be guarded. I'm guessing side sitting passenger safety 🤦🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️.

I don't know about Indian market, but the new euro-american version called BS 4 (or something like that) has solved the main problem of the Himalayan i.e. not switchable ABS. And now, it's much better than the BMW whose engine has 0 torque under 5000 rpm and for that reason really sucks

Plus with a 4 years of extended warranty, every part that could go kaput is taken care by RE including the labour charges.. So don't you think its a well put out bike and a real offroader from RE.
