Himalayan 450 Trail Ride: Stock Tyres Faster Than Knobbies?

The Himalayan 450 is quickly replacing the XPulse 200 on the trails! We had 4 Kamet Whites among the 7 bikes that were on the trail.
And it makes sense. The bike is just so versatile. You can easily hop on to one and go tour the country and then just go for that casual Sunday trail ride.
We had a slightly fast run today, and this is a raw clip from our ride.
I hope you enjoy it.
Cheers

We are supposed to get the Himi 450 this month here in the U.S. , can't wait to see one up close.

Nice, love it.
Where is this trail?
Even I did a similar ride on Himalayan 411 at leopard trail a year back, but not so fast though 😊

[@abhinavbhatt]

This is Summer Sprint in Gurgaon.

We did it for fun, nothing planned, later edited whatever video recordings we had and made this video.
Please share your contact number. Really admire your riding style.

What handguard u have bro for ur himmy 450??

[@manojnaikvlogs2022]

Hi Abhinav, I see you are using the original RE rally engine guard for Him 450 from day 1, is this enough? Serve the purpose? or do you recommend 3rd party guards?

[@abhinavbhatt]

Works fine for me. Have dropped it a few times too.

[@arjundev4908]

Is this 8 kms trail?

[@shankarauji2504]

🤟

[@djmumbhai1]

This trail has morning Joggers too, be careful with fast biking 😮

[@tlontusk429]

Curious about how the 49 teeth Sprocket is doing in the long run.

[@abhinavbhatt]

No issues.

[@facelessn0mad]

You can push harder! :D

[@nebula234]

Did RE launch tubeless rims in India?

[@abhinavbhatt]

Not yet. This is a test bike.

[@vishurao]

We saw you guys. We were on GSAs.

[@abhinavbhatt]

Oh, Quite surprisingly, I did not notice you guys!

[@vishurao]

@@abhinavbhatt damn. Saturday? There was a group with white impulse and white himalayans. I assume it was yours.
Anyways. Your videos have been inspiring. gg.
