I just bought my Himalayan one week ago and I have to say that I totally fell in love with it! 😍 This bike is everything I need. Nothing more and nothing less. I sold my 2019 Triumph street scrambler to buy the Himalayan. It was the best decision I’ve ever made with Bikes. I use it as you said as an everyday bike. I like your videos a lot and hope to see more from your Himalayan. Ride safe 🤙🏻 Greetings from Berlin - Germany ✌🏻

If I were to get an ADV bike, the Himmy would be at the top of my list! When one is off road, one wants a lighter, more basic bike. If you drop it, it's easier to pick up. If you need to fix it, you can; you can fix it anywhere in the world. I don't see how a tech laden, big beast of a bike like the Harley Pan America or BMW 1250 GS could be good for serious ADV work. They have rider modes, for goodness sake! Their cockpits belong on the Starship Enterprise, not a serious ADV bike. The virtue with the Himmy is that, if you're in the Himalayas or the Andes and something goes wrong, you CAN FIX IT! Even if you have to go to a local bike mechanic, they'll be able to fix the HImmy; I don't know if they could fix a sick GS.

We have 2, not yet fully broken in. That said. these are truly the Peoples' Adventure Bike! This isn't my first rodeo, as they say, and I'm shocked at how absolutely bedrock-stable, comfortable, and confident the bike feels. The ONLY complaint I have is, the stock brush guards aren't up to snuff, so pop for something with points of contact. Where I live in the States, we have multiple tens of thousands of forest roads, not to mention all the single track available, and so far, with the right tires, the little donkey hasn't balked at anything except freezing rain. I balk at that as well! THIS is an exquisite ride!

I live in the Andes and own a 2021 Himmy. I love the bike, but was curious of how it compared to the Ninja 400 so as to get an idea of the engineering. I looked at the Dynos of both bikes concentrating on the common 2,000 to 6,500 RPM range. The most significant difference there, was is on the low end of that range. Of course the Ninja has a 12,500rpm range but I was only interested in looking at their 400cc commonality. The Ninja at 2,500 rpm starts at 2.5hp and increases rapidly to 8hp at 2,800. Not a good characteristic for an off road bike. The Himalayan on the other hand starts at 8hp 2,500 rpm and increases to 8.5hp at 2,800 rpm. Extending the slope backward to 2,000 rpm and it looks like the Himalayan still has 6hp where the Ninja does not even register. Basically the Ninja design gives you no power at any rpms under 2,500 Where the Himalayan is quite powerful and torquey right from the 1,300 rpm idle. The Ninja at 6,500 rpm is producing about 26hp and the Himalayan about 21hp. Looking at the Himalayan from that perspective, the engineering makes a lot of sense. All the power is concentrated into the low rpms to produce a slow, slip free tractor-like pull from idle, while still providing highway capability. The Himalayan’s design makes a lot of sense if you simply look at the big picture from an engineer’s perspective. It is designed for 3rd world conditions, cheap, economical, rugged, attractive, and workhorse at slow speeds, with highway capability. It will do anything you ask of it, including traveling around the world. It is not designed to be extreme, but rather sufficient, fun and dependable for people on a budget. Most of the roads I ride on, are full of potholes and a lot are unpaved roads so most of my riding is between 10 and 30mph. But it is mixed riding, today I had to ride up a rough and long 30 degree walking path under load to get to the highway, where I then brought a passenger to the nearby city. There are no bikes out there that do that as well or better than the Himmy does. It is, and looks the part of a classic true world adventure bike.

I'm planning on getting the DNA high performance filter and breather cover in the future. I thought I won't need the old plastic breather (air filter cover) so what the heck I took a Dremel tool and cut a hole in the cover over the nipple part that plugs into the air filter, not bypassing the filter . A poor man's DNA breather cover. Now I have air going down the throat of the filter not having to make a 90 degree turn to go into breather. I can really feel a difference with more air getting into the fuel injection. It pulls so much better going up hill. Before when the speed started to bleed off I'd give more throttle and basically not much would happen, After the homemade mod I can actually feel it pulling and I can maintain speed or even increase speed on all but the steepest hills. No it don't turn it into a beast but it gives a noticeable improvement.

Hahaha will do mate

Lol not fast huh? Why then am I the only one in the family to get a speeding fine? ;-) In fact I find on mine the speed sneaks up on you if your not careful.

Haha i mean you can still break the speed limit on one 🤣 but in the world of motorbikes its one of the slower ones but to be honest thats why i love it i find it very relaxing to ride and i find i make less brash decisions on it plus its good for me just getting in to a bit of offroading if it was more powerful i would have ended up eating gravel haha cheers for the comment hope youre well mate!

@@roadblastmedia seriously it’s easier to find yourself speeding on the Himalayan than either the interceptor or GT. Maybe it’s the way I rode it. I have about another 2000 Ks in mine so it’s a good deal freer to spin up.

@@roadblastmedia lol yes the GT is a lot quicker. I think I have said before riding a Himalayan is like driving an old diesel Hilux. You ain’t going anywhere fast but you will go up or down any road you care to point it at.
