Very good bike for middle class family, low running cost, low maintanance, price is also affordable, one thing is charging time takes longer more than usual, acceleration is very good, braking is also good, rear suspension works beat, in just one word there is no other competitor to beat this bike, just go for it.Read More
This bike is very good while daily riding is the main factor as the mileage is very good like 43 kmpl in city traffic and the maintenance cost is very low if you ride the bike properly. Also the road presence particularly of this edition is great. If you wish to look good while getting an optimum performance then you can definitely go for it. In my case this bike is in neat condition without any damages or missing parts. All the services done on time and so the warranty is valid.Read More
Too good, must buy, suspensions are good, comfortable. If you love riding, you can glide on this bike. It is really amazing. For city ride, it has good controls. Breaks are accurate. Riding posture is also good as I am 6ft 1inch, I can sit for very long. Seats are comfortable, easily can carried pillion rider for 200km ride.Read More
I chose this because i love going to mountains and travelling through dirt trails and since i wanted to travel across Himalayas the first option that came my mind was Himalayan 450 because my cousin had Himalayan 411 back then and he loved the experience so i thought same beast with extra power would be a great choice. Honestly everything is good and perfect as i had imagined, The comfort is good the abs is great suspension, perfect and the 17L fuel tank is absolutely perfect, I never feel the necessity to carry extra fuel with me. Yes, i would really recommend this bike to someone who is interested in travelling or doing long rides like ladakh, Warwan you can go to any offroad batch or destination in this bike and also this bike performs well on highway too.
