Forgot to mention about average in the video, I am getting 30+ km/l in the city. Soon I will release a video on average test on this channel so stay tuned.

I am getting the same on my xpulse , defiintly worth it

@@amodmalvankar4904 great.. I believe Xpluse is lighter than Himalayan and more suitable for city rides.

Great analysis done here. Especially the heating issue, it is just not the bike but where you ride adds a lot to the aspect. Great 👍👍👍👍

3k kms done here. Been using for daily commute in heavy traffic of Bangalore . Its been fun.

@OnceARider Ай бұрын

That's awesome to hear! The Himalayan 450 is great for daily commutes, even in heavy traffic. How has your experience been with its performance and handling in Bangalore's traffic? Any tips for fellow riders?

@sankethhiremath7119 Ай бұрын

@@OnceARider Yeah. Thanks to Bangalore's pathetic infrastructure one can learn basic off roading skills on these horrible roads and with slow moving traffic weight can sometimes be an issue but it's okay once one gets used to it. Engine heat is okay considering its a big engine. Also Cant expect one to maneuver it the way hero Xpluse can be done. I get an average of 22-24 kmpl in city traffic.

@@sankethhiremath7119 yes.. you definitely need to get used to it. It's a beast of a bike and needs to be respected. And in Pune, I am getting 30+ km/l

@mrbalajiganesan Ай бұрын

It's an amazing bike but the deal breaker is low end torque. For a adventure bike it's not acceptable.

@OnceARider Ай бұрын

As per the specs the torque is there but you need to shift the gears quite frequently, specially in city riding conditions which is little annoying sometime. You need to get used to of it. However I would say during adventure ride or touring this would not be an issue.

@buzzlightyear1484 Ай бұрын

Bro even though this bike is a adventure bike with so much weight, it pulls from standstill faster than triumph speed 400 x. So i is a great bike and a very good cruiser.

@OnceARider Ай бұрын

Really? I havn't compared it to any other bike but that sounds awesome!

Can you suggest a rear tire hugger and an extension for front mudguard of the 450? The bike loves to throw dirt and muck on itself 🤦‍♂. Am tired of cleaning it

@OnceARider Ай бұрын

Unforunately no specific made for Himalayan 450 options are available for rear tyre but you try some generic ones. And for the front, it already comes an extender installed as standard and people are kind of removing it to get more naked dirtbike look. Howerver if you want something bigger then, again there are no specific Himalayn 450 options available and you try some generic ones. In this case going to local market and explore will help.

@OnceARider 28 күн бұрын

@@bhanuyadav3451 Earlier it was not available so people had to buy it as an accessory. But now it is available so you can check with the showroom if they can customise it for you. However I would suggest if your riding is more in the city and less adventure then you can also consider the newly launched Guerrilla, it is a roadster based on Himalayan 450. Same engine but with 790mm seat height, allowed wheels etc etc.
