As I am away from my Desktop PC, I have used a different (and unfamiliar) editing software, which just about managed to work with my old and slow laptop. Unfortunately, this video isn’t quite as good as usual. Hopefully you will find it useful, and enjoy watching nonetheless.

Right afternoon well it’s very late afternoon actually um here we are at crew motorcycle center again and Roger give me the nod about a new arrival let me show you yay y it’s a new Himalayan Himalayan however you want to pronounce it and these are going around the country at

The moment um each dealer has got them for a couple of days so that uh people can have a look at them uh Unfortunately they don’t run so we can’t take them out for a test ride but they are here to look at and we can turn the dash turn

The ignition on and have a look at the dash the clock so what we’ve got here is the this is the more expensive one the top of the range one which is the let’s get the name of it camt it’s the camet model and then we’ve got the cheaper one which is the

Hammer which I think looks absolutely stunning and just look at that just look look at the color of that with the gold rims um one of the main differences between the two is that the that one has got tubeless spoke rims around here there you go you see this spokes

Here so the rims are tube tubeless whereas on that one they are the original standard tube tire tubed tires um apparently I was reading Somewhere Only this morning that Royal Enfield will be doing the tubeless spoke rims as an optional extra for the other models so there we go so what do we

Think what I will do is um I’ll put the uh spec sheet we got this card here that’s uh whatever and I’ll put that into uh the video somewhere it’s a real step up isn’t it from the old one and we running uh shower show her suspension show her

Folks apparently this model is only just falling over the furniture sorry about that uh apparently this one is only just lighter a little bit lighter than the original uh but it’s a whole new frame because the the engine is now a stressed member I get on my hands and knees here

So there’s no down tube and there it is the new beating heart the 450 water cooled lump we got by bra brakes again nothing wrong with them and they’ll be doing loads of accessories for him as well how wide does that tank look looks really wide doesn’t

It so see if we can get on it there we go turn it on that’s a really really nice looking Speedo isn’t it it’s a mixture obviously well It’s All Digital but with the analog rev count it and then the speedo speed and then neutral so you got the gear indicator fuel

Warning very nice and and apparently again uh from what I’ve seen um you can link your phone up and have it turn by turn and and maps go on Google Maps because they struck a deal with Google apparently um one thing I will say that the seat you seem

To seems to slide it into it so yeah it’s very nice yeah do like that color that color is stunning the gold rims obviously there’s plenty of uh bikes of this with the gold rims but they’re very always remind me of the old yamar XT 500s back in the day back in the

80s really nice I like the way that the exhaust comes up now I mean God they got to have this gopping collector under there AR they really nice look at that how chunky is that uh rubbers on the pegs nice big shock there set on probably about the middle but apparently shower shower

Suspension on the rear as well at the welds it’s good quality isn’t it look at that yeah nice that the clutch cable takes a route that way instead of going that way way as they used to it’s a nice looking piece of Kit yeah I’m really looking forward I

Mean Roger said that he will let me know as soon as they get one and we’ll take it out for a demo ride very nice yeah and this this finish is like a yeah it’s just like matte if you uh if you look on YouTube I’ll

Put a link actually um itchy boots took one across the Himalayas and uh it seemed to stand up to the rigger so there nice oh grab handle for the um when you put on the center stand but these welds look at them belting let’s say it tires chunky nothing wrong with

Them be interesting to know what they like as a touring bike and uh you know for it’s like an adventure tour but without um going Offroad so much really good really impressed yeah the upside down folks look how chunky they are wow yeah it comes with The Bash plate plastic that

Is yeah gorgeous color that is I didn’t see one I didn’t go to the motorbike show so uh it’s the first my first time seeing it it is it yeah you got to be doing something serious to booger up underneath there don’t you very nice let me just have a quick look at

The weight curb weigh 196 kilos yeah so it’s not the lightest of the off-roaders is it but uh stunning stunning nonetheless right let’s see if I can uh I’ll take a photo of me sitting on it uh on the stand and off the stand so you can get an idea of

Height uh cuz I’m 5’9 with a 30in inside leg right so that’s it I think just a short one just to show it you here in the UK so if you want want to if you’re in the South cheser area and fancy having a look at it come to see Roger at

Crew Motorcycle Center West Street crew um I’ll put a link to the website below and uh yeah you’ve got to see them in the flesh because honestly they are far better than the pictures yeah I’m tempted myself now right thanks for watching please like comment and subscribe and uh
