    I just got back from a 2000 km trip on my Himalayan (her name is Laverne, fyi). It's easily 10x longer than any trip I've ever ridden and I was a little apprehensive, but she did great. I mounted Tusk boxes for a couple hundred bucks instead of the $700 RE boxes, a plastic top box I could have done without, and a 30L dry bag, plus my 100kg. Laverne did great. The fastest I went was a little more than 60mph, but I was on twisty secondary roads through the Appalachians, so there wasn't much opportunity to go faster.
    I've been riding for almost 35 years and this is hands down my favorite bike. I haven't done stuff like in this video, but it's obvious a Himalayan is capable. She's a sturdy little mule: She won't run like a thoroughbred, but she'll take me and my stuff damn near anywhere I want to go.

    After hearing this video referenced in the latest High Side/Low Side podcast, I had to come back and watch it again - maybe the 3rd of 4th time. This is one of the videos that contributed to my decision to purchase a Himalayan in November of 2020 as my first bike at 40, and I'm still riding it to this day - just ticked over 11k miles. Such an impressive little burro, like Zack says. Considering how much time these guys have spent around motorcycles, the fact that they still hold the Himy in high regard 3 years later speaks to the longevity of the bike too. Like Ari says, you can do all the maintenance yourself, even the valve checks and adjustments - it's so unintimidating in every imaginable way. Everybody told me to get a cheap used bike but I think that was a riskier proposition and may have discouraged me. If you want to ride and learn to maintain your bike confidently, just get a Royal Enfield.

This bike is fully made to enjoy the ride and its proven it can go into places it really didn't meant to go to. I would choose that bike in a heart-beat for long roadtrips.

      Do the first and second oil changes when prescribed (don't forget to clean out the little screen on the left side of the case), check the valves, use a halfway-decent quality oil, and it'll keep getting smoother - especially the transmission - as you put miles on it. I've got a little over 4300 miles on mine now (bought new) and love the thing.

    I love my Himalayan. You can easily buy cheaper aftermarket aluminum panniers or even cheaper soft saddle bags but the OEM ones are just so nice. The adv suspension is wonderful on our trash north eastern roads...that sometimes just end. Also Himalayans are built like tanks, I hit 2 deer and mine still trucked on home afterwards.
    They are also super nimble once you get the feel for them. Took mine down to some sand/dirt dirt bike trails (the trail was only as wide as my pegs in places and I had the panniers on) and she did fine. Needed a bit of extra umph to make the tight bends and it's a bit too heavy for sand but still made it and had a blast.

      Yes, but she did have Indian Royal Enfield dealership mechanics go over her bike twice. So the fit and finish was less of an issue.

    YAS, fellas! SO glad you’re back! Maybe you cats could do a feature sometime and get Spencer in front of the camera to talk about the work he’s done on all the shows and adventures.
