2020 ROYAL ENFIELD HIMAL AYAN
R I D E R E V I E W
P54
It could be argued, especially in the case
of the BMW and the KTM, that these bikes
are aimed more at the performance off-road
sector, while the Himalayan takes a more
relaxed approach to adventure touring. It's
a bike designed to take on the Himalayas in
comfort—ready to race; this is not.
Powering the Himalayan is the single-
cylinder 410 LS motor (LS standing for Long
Stroke), pumping out a meager 24 horse-
power, and 25 lb-ft of torque in a package
weighing a measured (by us) 430 pounds.
