The upcoming offering from the RE is built on a new platform developed by the Harris performance. It will be equipped with a 410cc oil cooled engine that is paired with a 5-speed transmission. The engine is expected to deliver 28bhp of maximum power and 32Nm of peak torque. The engine will also get overhead camshaft instead of the push rod architecture and it is expected to revolve freely up to 6,500-7,000 rpm.

The Himalayan 411 non abs is a versatile and rugged motorcycle designed for adventurer touring.the bike’s long travel suspension comfortably seats and high ground clearance make it well suited for off road adventure
The optimal choice for both highway cruising and off-roading adventures. Noteworthy for its comfortable seating and impressive engine sound. What's more remarkable is its affordability.
This versatile bike has proven to be the ultimate companion for both off-roading adventures and long-distance touring! With an impressive mileage of 45,000 kilometers, it has reliably taken me across diverse terrains and regions, consistently exceeding my expectations.
The bike is amazing both in feel and ride. Long distances don’t feel like it. The only issue is the heating of the bike while riding in the city, but on highways, it just feels amazing.
