                        Best in the class
                        I'm kinda adventures and I do a lot of touring and cover a lot of kms. wanted service centres in case any issue with the bike. Parts are easily available also wanted a bike with comes in my budget and doesn't not bleed me when it comes to service. Hence, this bike serves all my purpose. Rides fantastic, the build quality is amazing, it's comfortable for covering long distances in one go and the suspension, I have no worlds for it. It's glides over roads or no roads without any issues. Its just the best in this class when it comes to comfort. Yes, I will recommend the bike for sure it has taken me places where i could only dream off. From north to east from east to the west, and west to the south just riding without any issue. Close your eyes and go for it.

                        Himalayan 450 review after riding it for 500kms
                        The himalayan 450 got such a rally style design which I love it. It got the good school design with a modern twist which looks fabulous. It can take anywhere around on road or off road, the performance of the bike is really good. The bike has good amount power and I'm satisfied with what I got. When you are riding the bike it's really comfortable around the city roads with dumps and pot holes, you don't feel those dumps and potholes due to the suspension which is not adjustable but does the job. The performance of the bike is fabulous, the bike got enough power and torque to go around anywhere. The only downside is weight of the bike which is mostly front heavy, its a big deal to move the bike around while not riding. Yes absolutely, I recommend this bike for touring and off-road enthusiasts. However this bike can be used a daily commuter but one should keep in mind that the bike gives you around 19 to 21 kms mileage per litre. It's such a capable off roading machine, it got nice infotainment cluster packed with features. Finally I would say that the Royal Enfield hit a sweet spot with this machine.

                        Himalayan 450 the beast with ups and downs
                        I chose the Himalayan because it met my three main criteria.. it had been a brand new bike and it should be a Himalayan and I bought it with my own Money. Although 411 was discontinued the 450 was the perfect choice with fresh design and better power. The ride so far has seen its fair share of ups and downs. I had some issues with few service centre and met with a bad accident recently... But got a good service centre at last and got my bike fixed.. coming to the maintenance the cost is at a higher side but overall it's a great bike. I would like to break it in two parts as... Owing this bike you should have a good centre as that is where you will have some mental peace as if the service centre is not good then you will be in a constant fear for your bike..but yes keeping in that mind if you have a good service centre near you go for the bike

                        5.6 ft review
                        As my riding style is a little off-road type. I usually don't look out for small potholes and like that so Himalayan is way too good for the indian roads. Good for touring and city ride. Can be easily manoeuvred through the traffic Rides been good. Can be easily managed. I have driven this for the distance at 400 km till in one day. Comfort was there but seat can be improved and weight is on the heavier side which is difficult to manage sometimes My height is 5.6 and I'm managing this bike good so the above ones can easily mange this bike and you'll love this bike. Yes I would definitely recommend this bike as this is also my first bike and first in our home

Its combination of a comfortable, upright riding posture, capable long-travel suspension, and strong low-end torque so I choosen the this bike Himalayan bike rides in highways, back roads, and off-road paths, with the experience depending on the specific route and conditions. include comfortable ergonomics for long distances and the ability to handle varied conditions, though riders must be prepared for elements like rough roads Himalayan bike ride is recommended for its comfortable and capable performance on various terrains, especially for long tours. To have the best experience, you should prepare your bike with a thorough service

                        Jack of all trades
                        This bike is a jack of all trades. Reliable, decent power, great handling, economical to maintain. Amazing looks. Nimble in traffic. Just point and shoot. Amazing liquid cool technology. Never you shall face any overheating issue. I have driven my vstorm 250 for close to 25000 kms. Both city and highway, even taken it to Ran of Kutch also to the mountains and regular trips to Rajasthan. The bike is a mile muncher. Upright sitting posture shall keep motivating u to push for more. Stiff suspension gives u great confidence on corners. However slightly to stiff for potholes. Yes it bike you could consider as it ticked all the right boxes for me. However I would personally suggest to take a test drive of all the bikes in the same segment and have open perspective you will definitely shall be inclined to opt for the vstorm because of its versatility and looks.

                        great machine for long drives and city ride, decent mileage and ultimate riding comfort. Good power, excellent riding posture. Good weight balance, Brake bite could have been more effective. Built quality not upto the mark but decent, service is not up to the mark, suzuki should work on its service quality.

                        Best bike in this budget segment
                        Best bike for low budget and adventure , if someone is looking a adventure bike and his budget is around 2.5 lacks then this bike may be the best option. Because one of my reason is mileage. It gives almost 30 to 35 km which is the maximum for a adventure bike in this budget. So If you are looking like these segment then this is best option in my opinion.

                        From ride height till ride endurance for a entry level it is a good and ideal motorcycle in the segment. Comparison with similar segment motorcycle I have never seen any other motorcycle to provide a ease of ride . At the end we can conclude that we have number of brands offering similar segment motorcycle but for me Adventure by Yezdi will be a good pick.
