Sending it Pete! Looks like the Himalayan has some go on that ride. It offers alot of fun. I do like the way the navigation shows on the dash. Enjoyable watch Pete! 👏😁
Thanks heaps as usual Bob. Yeah mate I had a grin from ear to ear, blasting around on it like I stole it. And it delivered in spades. loads of fun and loads of features. Appreciate your comment mate. Regards FPPete.
Apart from watching Itchyboots on the pre-production model, yours is as good a review as hers
Thank you so much for your comment, that is a HUGE compliment. So Glad you enjoyed the review. Regards FPPete.
A thorough review with no questions needed. The night time recording is something ya rarely see on these videos, very helpful. Gotta say this one’s very tempting. 🤔
Thanks heaps Bradley, Glad you enjoyed the night stuff, The headlight was way out of alignment, so would be really good in the proper position. I try and show everything that I personally would be interested to know if buying a new bike. Glad you enjoyed the review. Regards FPPete.
The more I see you ride the Kaza Brown version the more I prefer it over the black. Understated functionality, beautiful.
I think all the colors look good & really suit the bikes vibe. Hard choice, but you can't go wrong. Regards FPPete.
Kaza brown really looks good in person
Thanks for the off-road fantastic video on Himalayan 450.
Thanks for watching the video and really appreciate your comment, Regards FPPete.
I gotta say i prefer the look of its predecessor but the upgrades introduced with this version certainly make it more appealing 👍
Hi Jason, Yeah it's not gonna win any beauty contests. It is an all new bike from the ground up and a ripper of a bike to ride. Great little Adventure bike. Regards FPPete.
That's proper riding
Thanks Heaps, Glad you enjoyed the video. Regards FPPete.
Thanks The best test I have seen yet.
Thanks for your comment John, really appreciated. Regards FPPete.
Thanks for you videos on the Himalayan.
I’ve got a test ride next Wednesday now🙄
Thanks heaps, glad your enjoying the videos. They were a pleasure to make, so much fun. Enjoy your test ride, the Himalayan is a great small bore Adventure Bike for sure. Regards FPPete.
Just ordered one down here in new Zealand great review
Thanks heaps Jim, and congrats on your new bike. It's a fantastic dual sport. Keep an eye on the air filter. Replace it with a washable one if you can. What color did you choose? Regards FPPete.
Got the white one with a bit of gray in it
Cheers
Very insightful and informative video of the Himalayan. Looks like a great value for beginners or intermediate adventure bike riders. You looked so comfortable and like a duck to water on the bike, “ Boris needs to be very nervous” 😮
Thanks so much, Really appreciated. I sure was in my comfort zone on the bike, it is a joy to ride. Boris is safe, nervous yes, but safe, LOL. Regards FPPete.
Another great test ride, i can see that in your bike shed 😊
Ha Ha, Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed the review. Yes it would be nice to have another bike. Regards FPPete.
Couple of different bikes on that trip. Good to see some crf300 rally in the mix to compare the himalayan to
Yeah, even a Kawasaki Versey 300. Regards FPPete.
Great review,no bad music....!very thorough..all the best from Ireland,home of the awful road's...
Hi John, great to hear from Ireland. The Himalayan maybe the bike to conquer those roads. Regards FPPete.
Gr8 skill 👌
Thanks heaps, Regards FPPete.
Great report, Pete. Very tempting 😂😂😂
Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed the review. And yes it sure does have appeal. Regards FPPete.
I thought you did a really good Aussie review. Very enjoyable viewing. I’m test riding one in Sydney on Tuesday
Thanks heaps Jon, Glad you enjoyed the review. Test riding is the best way to see if it's the bike for you. Enjoy your ride, Regards FPPete.
Harikasın Pete seni izlerken çok heyecanlanıyorum ve biran önce biskletime kavuşmayı istiyorum sayende bisiklet sürme hissi yaşıyorum teşekkürler Pete selamlar 🙋🏽♂️
Wow, What a fantastic comment, Thank you so much. So glad you enjoyed the video. Enjoy your new bike, your in for a lot of fun and adventures. Regards FPPete.
@@FULLPELTAdventures thank you so much
Nice review Pete. Love seeing the MC rides 😊
Thank you for watching and commenting, really appreciated. Hope to do more Madcat rides in the future. Regards FPPete.
Full Pelt Pete passes everyone.
Was that Lerderderg
Ha Ha, Thanks TOT, Yeah sure was the Lerdy, We went up to Campbells Creek for lunch then worked our way back to Melbourne. Regards FPPete.
“No ones racing”
😉
racing would be illegal ;)
I was having a fantastic time, such a fun bike to ride. Regards FPPete.
@@FULLPELTAdventures yes u were. No one ripps that Himalayan like u do. and I love it . Thanks for the content ❤️.
Great ride video Pete! That is awesome that a dealership would allow you to test a bike like this . If you took a test bike off road here in the States, the dealership would probably press charges.
Thanks heaps Bill, Yeah not all Dealers here allow off road riding either. So I can't thank Essendon Motorcycles enough. It sure is a lot of fun reviewing new bikes. What type of motorcycle do you have Bill? Regards FPPete.

The thing I don't like about your bike is how close the front and rear fenders are to the tires. I've had older bikes through muddy places only to get so plugged up with mud that I couldn't turn the wheels by hand. Out comes the screwdriver! Two inches or 5cm would eliminate most of that problem. Might benefit from a larger windscreen. I really like how smooth-sounding the motor and exhaust are.
The low fender is not ideal, no different than the T700 and many other Adventure bikes. If your in sticky mud it probably doesn't matter what bike your on, some will get a little further than others before they all need clearing. It is a great bike at a great Price. A larger Screen is available as an accessory. Regards FPPete.
One of the easiest mods for the old Himalayan was to fit aluminium spacers to raise the height of the front fender. Kits are readily available from aftermarket suppliers, but many people made their own. I would hope that the new bike is just as easy to modify.
I agree, there will always be a fix. Thanks for your comment.
Have one on order. Never buy first models but in this case don't think any major concerns. Great to see you not bitch about the vibes, guessing if you thought was a issue you would made a comment . Can't wait to pick it up and put few km's on it.
Congratulations on your new Himalayan. The bike is very smooth, almost vibration free. Just keep an eye on the air filter, get an aftermarket washable air filter, is my only advise. It's a great bike and so much fun to ride. Regards FPPete.
@@FULLPELTAdventures Great skillz on a bike mate, enjoying your content. What airfilter do you reccommend? and thanks for the advice.
Heads up if you ride in a line of dust with other riders on this bike. You have to completely remove the fuel tank to clean/replace the air filter. Getting to the fuel pump is a step along the way... which is kind of a bonus I guess. It's a pain if you're on a sand track and you have to find places to put parts. Plan for that if you buy one for actual off road. Carry a tarp.
Yeah I have done a video on getting to the air filter. It's not ideal, and I would replace the stock filter with a washable aftermarket filter. Regards FPPete.
@@FULLPELTAdventures agreed, any on road serviceable parts are ideal if you're going way out there.
It would be interesting to see how a CF Moto 450 would go on the same ride and a comparison between the two. Great video, ta.
It will smash it , CF Moto is the bike to buy
Test ride both.
Chinese junk@@HUSKYFE501
I do hope to test ride the CF Moto 450 when it becomes available. I can't wait. It will be interesting to know how it compares. Regards FPPete.
@@FULLPELTAdventures Many thanks it certainly would be good to see the CF Moto on the same/ similar ride.
Excellent Video 😎
Thanks, glad you enjoyed the video. I had a blast on the Himalayan. Regards FPPEte.
@@FULLPELTAdventures April 30th ordered in Germany 😀
Congratulations on your new bike. What color did you order?
@@FULLPELTAdventures Hanle Black.
Great choice. Beautiful looking bike. Regards FPPete.
Great review , Thoughts on this or a bigger Transalp 750? For a mix of on and off road?
Both are great bike's. I always recommend test riding any bike before purchasing if you can. The Honda is a well priced adventure bike and you will get good old Honda reliability. The Himalayan is built to a price. It's a good Dual Sport bike, rugged and ticks a lot of boxes. I don't like the paper air filter on the Himalayan for Australian conditions. Glad you enjoyed the Vid. Regards FPPete.
Great thank you
Mine should have arrived this week. Getting disappointed with the lack of communication from my designated Dealer.
Congratulations on your new Himalayan, Hope you enjoy many Adventures. What color did you go with? Regards FPPete.
@@FULLPELTAdventures Kaza Brown, Black looks great but shows dirt and soaks up heat.
G'day Pete, another stellar performance on the Himalayan . It definitely has some features that are excellent on a sub 10k bike . Would I trade the Dr for one? that's the million dollar question 🤔 Cheer's mate 🍺
Hi Will, the DR is such a great Dual Sport Bike, I hope to keep my Boris for as long as I can. However, drop a million bucks down, and old Boris may be on shaky ground. LOL. Glad you enjoyed the vid, and thanks for your comment. Regards FPPete.
So tempting,so many positives, but would I sell my dr650 😢, how about you Pete? Price is fantastic!!
Don't sell the 650!
Thanks Peter, the DR is a different bike in many ways. If your keen on a modern small bore Adventure Bike, the Himalayan is a great choice. I have no plans on selling the DR650. Go test ride one and see what you think. Regards FPPete.
They say in India the all ride on the back break
Well Jimmy they won't be disappointed with the back brake on this bad boy. LOL. Regards FPPete.
What is it like to pick up
I don't know, You do feel the weight when lifting it off the side stand. With the rear rack and forward crash bars, there is plenty of places to grab on to. The bike does carry it's weight low. Regards FPPete.
cool stuff u gonna buy one ?
Thanks, glad you enjoyed the review. I am not in the market for a new bike, but for those that are looking for a great small bore Adventure bike at a great price, the Himalayan is worth a look. Regards FPPete.
More vibrations than a KLR?
The Himalayan IS very smooth. The very minor vibrations I felt was through the footpegs. Keep the rubber inserts in the pegs, and it would be virtually vibration free. Regards FPPete.
the headlight throw sucks - lots of people saying the main beam makes about 1% difference, very strange - better led required as the compared results make no sense
The head light was way out of adjustment, it was pointing High. I did not get to ride it after the head light was positioned properly. I believe the headlight would be really good at night. Regards FPPete.
ALMIGHTY. -:. GOD. -:-. KAABIR. ❤-:
I don`t want one. I want two (a dune brown 411 and a Kamet White 452).
Ha Ha, Go for it. Great color choice. Regards FPPete.
Would you buy one?
Yes I would buy one. If I was looking for a one bike that does it all, the Himalayan is a pretty good contender. Price will always be an important factor for potential buyers. Access to the Air Filter and a better Air Filter are the 2 things that need to be improved. It won't suit everyone, so test riding it will help with your decision. Regards FPPete.
@@FULLPELTAdventures compared to the cfmoto 450 which one would you prefer?
