r/Himalayan450

I own a Kamet White Himalayan 450 and I have clocked roughly around 50k kilometres. I have the following mods installed:

1. BMC Air filter
2. Decat pipe with stock exhaust.
3. PowerTronics FuelX Pro+

Till now, the experience and performance has been amazing 🤩 Buying Himi450 is One of the best decisions I have made🙌

Now, I am looking for full system exhaust. Can you guys help me with suggestions? I did research about AEW, Power-rage, Norifumi, etc, however I am still confused between buying full system or only slip-on would be the best option here!

Any suggestions or help would be appreciated!

Godspeed🤜🤛

I got a small 5 inch carplay and changed the oil at 5050 kms exactly a few kms after the second service. Immediate difference in the refinement levels, engine sound, and smoother shifting. The cooling seems better I need to test it out in chennai heat to see how it performs. Guys I think everyone of you should do this change at least after 3rd service. This is very basic and it brings a lot of difference. I am out of bike funds for now. but I am looking for more mods in future! drop me some mods that I should do that would make the experience much better!

I owned a Standard 350 and sold it last year, planning to upgrade. At that time, I was considering the NX500, but I was short on cash, so I decided to wait. Recently, with the new e-Clutch model, the on-road price in Kochi has gone up to around ₹9.5 lakh, which feels like a huge amount for me. At that price, I feel like I might as well continue saving and eventually get a Transalp 750.

The problem is that I currently don’t have a bike, and I really miss riding. So I’m thinking about getting something for the short to medium term (maybe keeping it for around 5 years), and the Himalayan 450 is on my mind.

What are your thoughts on it? Is it worth buying at around ₹4.3 lakh on-road? Or should I just stretch for the NX500 instead?

I fractured my leg back in February (not in a motorcycle accident), and after months of recovery I'm finally cleared to ride again. Physically, I'm doing well.

buy strangely I just can't get back on my Himalayan.

Before the injury, the bike never felt particularly heavy or intimidating. Now, every time I look at it or think about riding, it suddenly feels like a huge machine. I keep worrying that I'll lose my balance, won't be able to hold its weight, or somehow end up hurting my leg again.

It's frustrating because I want to ride. I miss it. But my brain seems to have developed a fear that wasn't there before.

Anyone faced something similar?

I'm planning to buy a Himalayan 450. Should I go with the crash guards provided by RE or go with aftermarket guards.

I'm thinking about adding Adventure Screen, Engine Guards, Radiator Guards and Hand Guards

Which all items should I get from RE ?

Guys i am buying a 21 model silver himalyan with 11k kilometres on the odo, i am getting the bike for 1lakh 40 thousand, it includes two spare tubes and zana saddle stays with bags, i want to know that am i getting a good deal and what all should i check when i go for the test ride

And most importantly i have a doubt that the meter is rolled back as i have seen multiple bikes listed with the reading of 11k i dont knownif that is just a coincidence
