Hey bro nice video.. Actually I have also tried it but in my case handle gaurd is touching my visor and I am unable to lock the handle.. Any suggestions..?
Spartaa vlogs if you have got the original RE handle guards they wont come in your way.. but if they arent the original ones (two side attachment ones) you have to do some jugaad
@@ThunderBuddymh43 Bro I got them from RE showroom but I don't know why the are touching on my visor at the time of installation.. Do you adjusted your visor..
Please can you tell me about this... I have these guards installed on my stock handlebar of my Himalayan. Now, if I change my stock handlebar to the Braced Handlebar for Himalayan from RE Genuine Accessories, will these guards fit back on that one as well? Asked my nearest service centre but they weren't able to say much about this, apparently they didn't even know that RE had another handlebar for Himalayan. Please suggest me.
Hopefully they should fit. I have tried the braced handlebar as its height is a bit lower as compared to the short handlebar. The only thing you need to check here will be the length of the hex-bolts to fix everything in place
Here is the US we can purchase them from India on ebay but they cost over $80 including shipping that's about 5,650 rupee, seems expensive, i guess shipping must cost a lot.. Good video short & to the point..Thanks
Jolly Peanut thanks alot for watching.. and please do subscribe will try to post more ROYAL ENFIELD and HIMALAYAN related content and yes it reaches a cost around $87 because it includes shipping and export charges. Its the same just like Harleys are expensive here in India, Enfields are expensive in the rest of the world
Hey buddy, what's up! Thanks alot for keeping up. I have recently ridden to goa on my himalayan just before IBW 2019. And have faced absolutely no issues. There was a time when I riding in extreme cold conditions and at times in extreme hot conditions on highways. Faced literally no wind blast on the grips behind the hand guards no cold wind no warm wind provided you are also wearing good quality riding gloves. 🤙😎
I bent my mounting bolt once I dropped my bike in a U-turn. I'm still having hard time, trying to find replacement Allen bolt for the same. Do you know how I could find replacement?
Thanks for this tuto . Well explained and good shot to see the result ... I hesitaded to buy these hand guard because we don't see them in France ... after see your video , i ordered them ( in India by the web) ... Greetings from France indian friends and Thunder Buddy . Jérôme
hello, Jerome.I am glad that you found this tutorial helpful. if you have any other queries regarding any of the accessories for the Himalayan feel free to contact. lets stay in touch you can add me on instagram ( instagram.com/thunder_buddy_mh43 ).
ningma tamang the knuckle guard kind of touches the visor when the visor is on the top setting. Other wise there is no problem. I am going to install the touring handlebar on my himalayan to see whether the knuckle guard still touches the visor. I’ll give an update on the same very soon
Hey sahil.. The black part is plastic and the grey part in the middle is cast metal. The quality is really very good, even though being single side fitting hand guards they so not vibrate at all. They are worth the money you pay🤙😎
Stock end weights are looking gud,im gonna do the same for my sleet abs Are there any colour options for knuckle gaurds bro or just one only? And one more thing wat hav u done on tank which is looking very shiny?
Yess..!! The stock weights look better than the plastic ones😎 there are no colour options in the knuckle guards as of now.. I am planning to wrap them into carbon fibre wrap. Talking about the tank, I have wrapped it with transperent vinyl to prevent any scratches due to tank bags
Bhiwraj Suthar hey buddy actually they should not touch the windscreen even at the top setting... you can consult the RE showroom. I have been using the handle gurds since a long time and have used the low and the top setting as well but the handle guards never touched the windscreen.
Do the hand guards protect the hand from wind blast in case of cold weather (as they are open on one end)? Was thinking of purchasing the same for my Himalayan.
Rohan Rayakar I've been using these hand guards in hot weather and can say that you don't feel any air on the hands. And even after being open on one side they are sturdy and don't vibrate.. I'd suggest to install them with the stock end weights.
Ryan Baranoski they are just perfect!!! I had a crash while off-roading which kind of bent the bolt on the left side. Got the bolt replaced and the handle guards are back in action!!
@@ThunderBuddymh43 awesome! I'll order them up in the morning, I've really been loving this bike here in Nevada, USA. Just need to finish outfitting it
technical sda hey sorry for the late reply.. my comment wasnt getting posted idk how.. and coming to the point, no!! They do not vibrate at all if tightened properly as they even have locktight applied on the provided bolts.
Engine crash guard form the company is available for the price of ₹1270/- and talking about riding gloves... They depend upon the purpose of your use. I use RE leather gloves for city as well as long rides
@@ThunderBuddymh43 thanks, but that is small and looks flimsy, do you think that is good enough to protect you from colliding or crash, what do you think of zana crash guard with slider?
@@thangkirbuaiabuaia1812 the one which is company made looks small but serves the purpose well and also comes with 2yr warranty. talking about the Zana Crash guards.. its a proper cage around the engine dont know about their built quality as i haven't used them.
@@ThunderBuddymh43 how much appealing it looks from far away.Just put the camera and hit record and drive Himalayan, i just want to know how much appeal does it increase
HARIKRISHNAN P hey buddy yeah... people are already using them with their classics and these guards were an accessory for the bullet trials. Then too i will suggest you to check with the store once for the bolt thread size.

Does the knuckguard not touch the fairing???
Marshelkar Pratik hey buddy. If the windscreen is set on high setting then it does but on the lower setting it doesnot touch the windscreen
Can these fit on Thunderbird X??
I've bar end mirrors already fixed, so can it got with them??
they fit on the classics and the standard bullets aswell. but personally saying, i own a thunderbird as well and i dont think they will look good.
I bent my mounting bolt once I dropped my bike in a U-turn. I'm still having hard time, trying to find replacement Allen bolt for the same. Do you know how I could find replacement?
Check for them at any local spare parts store or directly at the Royal Enfield service station.
I looked in RE station. I shall check again in other store. Local stores don't seem to have them. I need to look. Thanks!
Is it available online? not found in my town enfield dealer.
hi, will they fit on xpluse 200?
Hey hopefully they should!
Have you applied some coating to you tank because it is shining a lot?
Amol Namdeo yes i have actually covered the tank with PPF vinyl so that it prevents the tank from scratches when i mount a tank bag
Is it fet for TVS ntorq

salman shaik headlight grills are only for classics as of what i know.. lets see many more accessories are yet to come..
bro idk why , main handle gaurds are touching the windscreen when i turn it.... any suggestions ?
Bhiwraj Suthar hey buddy actually they should not touch the windscreen even at the top setting... you can consult the RE showroom. I have been using the handle gurds since a long time and have used the low and the top setting as well but the handle guards never touched the windscreen.
you need a riser kit
Can you install it without end weights?
Saravanan A you have to install either of the end weights. Stock or the plactic ones that are provided
Do the hand guards protect the hand from wind blast in case of cold weather (as they are open on one end)? Was thinking of purchasing the same for my Himalayan.

It's been a year, how are they holding up? About to buy a set of some kind

Does these hand guard vibrate when on and off the road?
Dude I need answer to my question too

Thx buddy..
can i remove the plastic portion?
Akshay Dileep yes you can. You will need a 4mm hex key/ allen key to do it🤙🏼
@@ThunderBuddymh43 Thank you
Don't you think that was too costlier for more than 2k???
One Life One Ride🧭 nope i dont think so.. i think thats worth every penny you pay.
Do they touch the front visor???
One Life One Ride🧭 on low setting: NO;
On high setting: YES
Bro does it hit your windshield?
No sir, it does not hit the windshield as it is open on the inner end.
Cool, looks like these guards are worth what you paid. #TBMH43 ⚡⚡
