Royal Enfield Himalayan 450: Long-Term Review 🏍️

After several months riding the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 I've had the chance to take it on a variety of on and off road trips. From riding the Himalayan 450 off road on some local ATV trails to a multi-hour highway road trip, I've tired to use this adventure motorcycle in the ways I felt most adventure riders would. My long term Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 review is overwhelmingly positive, though there are also a few downsides to this budget-friendly adv bike.

One of the most common questions I've gotten since picking up this loaner 450 Himalayan is how do you compare CFMOTO Ibex 450 vs Royal Enfield Himalayan 450? I'm planning a longer and more in-depth comparison of these two ADV bikes later on, but I've also included some quick and dirty thoughts on what you should consider if you're debating Himalayan 450 vs Ibex 450.

At the end of the day, I love the new Himalayan 450. It’s an amazing value. You get a ridiculous amount of adventure motorcycle for your money. Whether you’re brand new to ADV or motorcycles in general or an experienced off road veteran you’ll find something to love about the new Himalayan 450.
