Good video mate,enjoyed seeing places I ride.If your up for some suggestions in that area I can recommend some good options.I ride that area on my little toy XT250 or my CB500X.From Bunyip State Forest.you could go more north towards Powell town,or going east,from Neerim you could go into Tanjil State Forest,lovely everywhere there,make it as hard or easy as you want.
Great video mate, thanks for posting. How did the bike go on the freeway/highway at speed? Asking because I have a new RE Himalayan on order here in Perth. just wish it would arrive.
Looks like your having a good ride mate ,I tell you bang for buck it’s good value bike and it dose every thing it says on the tin ,they say it’s a bit vibe on the road but it’s a big single just have to live with it we can’t have everything
It’s a good value bike and it dose every thing it says on the tin ,but there’s 3 things Royal Enfield engineers can look at to improve the bike ,num. one vibration it’s a single but there’s room for improvement ,num two if you let go the bars on the bitumen it pulled to the right be carefull if you do this ,num three the side stand is to short most people think, Royal Enfield there’s always room for improvement ,competition is close behind ,jimmy west Aust
$2K service cost! That is ridiculous, but typical for BMW. My Pan Am only cost $500 to service. I don't really use the Pan Am as an off road bike, 95% of its time is as a sports tourer or commuter. It is overkill as a commuter, but since 20km of the 25km commute is on the freeway, the responsiveness at 80 to 100kph is beautiful.
I was looking at a secondhand f800 and the owner warned me that I should only buy it if I do my own servicing. Might be something about the f800 or certain dealers that charge more
great video thanks for putting road names in there, will take the tuareg 660 for a test ride on that route

Bike ran smooth on the highway. A little bit of vibration but nothing to worry about. Great power and handling.
Wasn’t expecting 93’ till infinity instrumental 😅

Some tails up there that make my Dr650 go weak at the Spokes
Lower bike weight opens more riding areas.
My local ride when I have an afternoon free 👍

Turn the bars to make it easier to get off the side stand 😉

2k a service‽ cost me $1600 for a pack of 3 services for a S1KXR.
