  • DON'T start riding your NEW Himalayan 450 before watching this video! Lugging the engine is the worst thing you can do to your engine subconsciously, and this video will help you avoid doing that!

    Phenomenally done and very valuable information. I didn't ride it that fast during my test ride but, I couldn't shift to 4th at around 2,500 RPM and below 38-39 km/h. My poor and old 150cc motorcycle is comfortable at 50 kmph with the engine spinning around 4,000 RPM in 6th. Gave me another strong reason, for why it is not suitable for me and my use. Thank you so much.

      That's the whole point of reviews and such videos: to tell things that aren't available in a brochure, and even if they are, whether they are correct or not. 😃
      Secondly, it's unfair to expect a large, short-stroke, SINGLE, to be as tractable as a 150. It's just not possible! That said, even when you compared, you missed its rpm at 60. So your 150 does 60 in 6th at 4k. And you want a relaxed ride at 60, right? This does 60 km/h at just over 3k in 5th! Problem solved 😃 Check the video again, especially post the 10.00 min mark 😃

      @@RealAutoReviews Oh yes, I missed that! Thanks for highlighting. I shall check the video again. What I felt might be just because of the short ride. In that case, I may only be able to use the 6th in 20% of my riding.

      @@RealAutoReviews Bro, this truly amazes me how insanely tractable my Speed 400 is. Triumph has truly done some black magic to that engine which makes it behave quite similar to it's Twin cylinder siblings.

    Lowest comfortable speed in this video:-
    2nd gear - 20 kmph
    3rd gear - 35 kmph
    4th gear - 50 kmph
    5th gear - 60 kmph
    6th gear - 75 kmph
    This is much much worser than what Triumph Speed 400 managed:-
    2nd gear - 12 kmph
    3rd gear - 20 kmph
    4th gear - 30 kmph
    5th gear - 45 kmph
    6th gear - 55 kmph

      Doesn't really matter in the real world. The lowest speeds in both videos are shown primarily to enable the owners to avoid lugging the engine 😃

    6th to 5th and 5th to 4th are pretty close to what RE recommends. Nice

    Shiraz bhaiz i have ridden new Himalayan for few KM's. Mostly 3rd and Max 4th gear
    I dont know why but in 1st, 2nd and 3rd it feels like the engine will stall if i dont keep it in correct speed. Just like we do in KTM engines
