Royal Enfield Himalayan
I am planning a trip to Mongolia and the Stans next year and will be using a Royal Enfield Himalayan.
From stuff I have read on here I can see not many people take this bike seriously, but I have seen enough positive stuff about them (EFI models) from India to be sure its the bike I want, so I am not looking to be told its a daft choice. I know it's not fast, and the front brake is not brilliant (I ride Harleys so am used to that lol). It's lightweight, not too high (I am a short arse), cheap, economical and easy to work on. Plus I like the look of it, and I find the riding and standing position suit me.
However, I am interested in any feedback from anyone who has done a long trip on one, and any problems they have had with the bike, or suggested modifications? How are the stock tyres? I am buying the bike new and will do a Scotland trip to run it in, so will get some ideas from that, but would welcome any feedback from current owners.
