Royal Enfield Himalayan 2024

Royal Enfield Himalayan 2024

The new Royal Enfield Himalayan is a great evolution of the original concept. It is still not about performance or sportiness, but about accessibility and adventure suitability. Royal Enfield has made significant improvements in the most important areas, such as the brakes and suspension, 40 Horsepower makes it more fun and practical than ever and even includes unexpected features such as the TripperDash with 3D Google Maps navigation. If you can distance yourself from the performance mania of western touring enduros, you will find the Himalayan a nimble, accessible and fun bike for adventures big and small.

Cleanly responsive engine with enough power for motorway stages and riding pleasure

Very well tuned suspension

Good brakes at last

Modern navigation thanks to TripperDash

Exceptionally successful ergonomics when standing and sitting

Fairly high payload

Good features for the price

Very long range

Unrivalled value for money

Navigation drains smartphone battery

Wind protection with standard windscreen rather limited

Moto Guzzi V85 TT 2019

Moto Guzzi V85 TT 2019

The cruiser among the touring enduros radiates cosiness and sovereignty. Its thundering V2 engine moves well and forgivingly. The chassis and brakes also work well. It is just as ill-suited to extreme off-road situations as it is in the hands of notorious knee-grinders. The Moto Guzzi V 85 TT likes to do its rounds in a refined and comfortable manner, and even for longer tours it offers enough practical comfort with its cardan drive and ergonomics. On top of that, it looks sensational and conveys emotion. The only thing some of our testers would like is a few more horses than its 80 hp.

Cosy, forgiving V2 engine

great sound

good decelerating brakes

very iconic, beautiful exterior

suitable for light off-road terrain

easy-care cardan drive

some of our editors would like to see more sportiness and performance

unsuitable for harder off-road tracks

driving in a standing position difficult for taller pilots
