A German biker took the 411 for rallying in Bosnia this year and it performed surprisingly well. The only issue was that the entire headlight assembly isn't built for the kind of strain involved in such use and, well, erm, returning to recently a occurring theme, did very gothy things. Die, disintegrate, go down in misery and demise, infinite eternal sadness. That kind of jazz. Without the jazz. Died to death.
Very nice review! 🤗
Rode a 2018 model to Nordkapp 2 years ago from Belgium. Whole trip was 8600 km. No problems whatsoever. Getting to Oslo includes 2 days of motorways through Germany, Denmark and Sweden. Stayed around 5000 rpm on the motorway which means 100-120 km carrying a 58 ltrs topbox and 39 ltrs panniers. I would have loved to ride my Suzuki on the motorway though. It's the ideal bike for Norwegian roads if you're attached to your driver's licence.
It's a bike one can afford, reparable most any place (in the world), and leaves the purchaser with the ability to take those adventures (due to costing a lot less).
I know three people that have bought the 411 this past year. Glad your wrist is doing better Saffron, take care and have a lot more fun on the Himalayan.
Well said!
There's an oldish land rover defender local to me with a sticker on the back that says " if you think this is slow, wait till i go up a hill !".
I think Saffy this RE Himalayan was built in the same vain. It has to be able to go anywhere reliably, but it doesn't need to do it quickly !!!.
I'd rather have a reliable machine than a fast machine any day
@@SaffySprocket Amen!
Slow? Can do 70mph+ easily for 6hrs straight. No problems on motorway, passing traffic etc. Stays with and passes traffic easily with some to spare. 80-85mph is razzing it.
I bought a Scram 411 in 2022 after riding cruisers for about 20 years, my previous bike being a Shadow 1100. Remains my only form of transport, although I will probably get a second bike this year for longer trips. I don't have any plans to get rid of the Scram.
Saffy you are so precious! I am my own pillion and 6’00” and I chose it as my first bike since it just felt like home when i sat on it the first time. I have done 570 miles in one day and with my weight that seat hurt. However the Seat Concepts Tall helps with my older knees and also my Bumm…. Got YSS Suspension upgrade going in this week… More preload and a little added spring rate will be a blessing for me… in the end I Love My Bike.. Great to see ya giggling on a bike again…
Wow you have just hit the nail on the head about the himmy
I still love it though hahahaha 🤣
All around.. go where you want to go. Easy to work on. And it can cover a lot of ground quickly ✌️🚶🏃🤸
It's the bike that keeps on giving
The absolutely beautiful saffy these bikes look good
I really love them!
There is something about those bikes, you're right. I have run one for a few years now, sometimes curse the lack of power (Motorways, faster A roads), but you can run them all day long without sucking the lint of your wallet.
Touché Saffy I got back on my FJ12 a few days ago after the low side down a dual carragway at 40mph sustaining a dislocated shoulder.
Your review is pretty accurate. The only problem with the bike is people’s expectations of it are wrong. They seem to think it’s going to do everything a BMW GS does but at a quarter of the price 😊
You may have ridden a Himalayan yourself but I have had both and the himmy pound for pound is a better biker
@@howardmann5634the question is, what BMW GS? I think there are 20 (or more) different GS models since ‘81… A Himalayan should be compared to a BMW R65G/S imho… or the lightest in their 2023/4 catalogue..
@@howardmann5634 I own one. Never ridden a GS!
I think a lot of people have way too high expectations of smaller bikes
Hi Saffy
I just bought a green Himalayan and have only done 85 miles so far. It's slow, but that's to be expected from a retro bike and especially a Royal Enfield. They all are so wouldn't be suitable as an all rounder. That's not a problem for me because I have two other road bikes and wanted a bike to explore back roads, tracks and for camping trips.
My Honda has a digital dash, but I don't think it would look right on the Himalayan since it's a throwback from the 1950s which is why I bought it. I wanted a retro motorcycle without the reliability issues.
I agree! But they should totally do what the mini cars to, and have a little integrated speed speedo with the analogue one :-)
Good video saffy, I am a strictly on road mature rider and never been into off road, but all motorcycles and riders get a thumbs up 👍 from me, I love analogue clocks and much prefer than digital, but you have only been riding 3 years I will be celebrating 50 years a biker in March which I am quite proud of, especially since I have never driven a car! And I love my only bike a 22 year yamaha xj600s diversion, which for me is the best bike on the road, I know that will make a lot of people laugh but each to their own, I have had nearly 30 bikes over the years and all shapes and sizes. Sorry for going on a bit! As always best wishes Roy.
Nice to see you on/off road again,even on a RE 411 Saffy.
You and U...Kate must have a fight to get the new RE 450 first since you realeased testride video at the same day!
I think you win because you are in better shape than Kate.
She was breathing heavily during offroad driving after Mike !
You was as normal ,a lot off Saffy speaking(or noise 😊).
Some day I have to downsize from my big 2011 R1200GSA.
The new RE 450 will be interesting to testride when the snow disappears in Norway.
Nah probably just because I was so scared I wasn't breathing at all 😂😂😂😂😂
0:00 Saffy bringing out her inner Doug Demuro, brilliant 😂
My friends 411 he actually replaced the rear sprocket to a 3 tooth larger than stock ,really improved the low RPM pull and it's a terrific off pavement machine.. seemed like in your video when it stalled on you going up that rocky trail that maybe lower gearing could have helped? BTW that was a good trail to test on.. a Split rail fence on your left and what looked like Barbed wire on your right! Good thing the trail was Wet Rutty and Rocky.. What could go wrong.. 😌 Great review
14:57 Saffy ❤ you could always put marker lines at speed limits ,I also think it would be a good starter bike for people ,great vlogg lass .
My brain cuts out when I look at an analogue clock 😂 I just don't know what it is about them
@@SaffySprocket I think you can change them with aftermarket digital gauges .
Heavy, slow, many faults, short service intervals, rubbish brakes, uncomfy seat, poor headlight, easy snap indicators, dash fogs when cold, tubed tyres, air intake too low for deep puddles, poor mirrors, air temp gauge reads 6 deg too high, compass is a joke on earlier models with cheap relays and fuel injection issues, bearings fail, handlebars made out of butter. Love mine.
Lol 😂 now say the bad bits
Fair summary 😊
Lol.... I had all these faults when I got mine in 2019... Got rid in early 2020 but I still regret it.... And I don't even know why 🤦🤣🤣
I'm excited for the 452 👍
Hit every nail on the head - and I miss my one
The cheapest thing about the Himalaya is the person sitting on it
You described the bike and the customer it is aimed at perfectly. I own the exact bike as tested and I can see myself in your definition of it’s riders 😅 I like analog dials though 😊
I think if I grew up with analogue,I'd prefer it but it feels so alien to me 😂😭
That’s definitely me a tractor explorer , this bike is similar in ways to my bmw310 it’s ok to do exploring on but I trailer it up to the nc500 lol , love the insta360 shots probably gonna give myself a breakdown trying to get mine working lol
I'll have to put the 310 on my list to try out!!!!
@@SaffySprocket I got mine pre registered , was so cheap it was a no brain decision , my kmx200 was going through fuel to the point it did 25 mpg 😮
I went to buy a second hand 21 model this past weekend and my dealer got me onto a new 23 scram411. Now if only the roads would thaw out.
I'd agree with most of your comments, but I like mine to get around my city.
Your test bike is the same color as mine, although I removed the Himalayan logo off of the side panels.
It's more than a MC. It has a soul, it's alive! 🤣
😂
Voice a cute ❤😊 nd also I lik it bike Himalayan
Thank you so much 😀
Interesting to see comparison with yours and Kate’s Himmy test posted same day
Great minds 😌
Did she manage to not fall off it?
@@BibTheBoulderTheOriginalOne
Usernamekate fell off at one stage but probably more challenging route. Respect for Saffy though making comeback from injury
lol...she usually does. @@derbyshireruralrider9398
Your doing great, throttle and clutch control is tricky on rough terrain at 66 I still have trouble please don't give up.
Great review and that’s from someone that’s been riding one for 2 years and if you like this 411 your going to Love the 452 with it digital speedo 😍 they are a great winter bike cover it in ACF 50 in November and don’t wash it till March apart from maybe a squirt with the hose just to wash worst mud off 🙂 loving you channel ride safe. M 🏍💨
Great review and great to see you back in the saddle Saffy, I hope your ribs are on the mend. Im 63 and I ride a 1973 Triumph TR5T and love it, I want to buy a second bike, but it has to be "old school", Definitly dont want all the computer tech on a bike so the Royal Enfields are for me just about the only choice. Cant wait for your next video,take care.
I never understand why people younger than me play the, ‘I don’t do computers’ card?
❤ good job 👏 i am happy 😊 to see you back on your ❤ bike 🏍
Thank you! 😃
With the arrival of the new 450 Himalayan there is lot of 411 for sale at great price? Low mileage new mint for 2500-3000 in uk 🇬🇧
Sooo interesting to hear you telling, that you prefer a digital speedo above an analog speedo… for me “a first” and we do trade in bikes and accessories for motorcycles for 35 years… our clients have all ages, but at least 50% are youngsters… Maybe gen Z (as you are) is different though… Budget wise retro bikes as RE do appeal both to old(er) riders as youngsters due to budget and license type… Is retro dictating Anlog dials or will they choose the future.. never thought about it really, so a interesting point! Keep up the good work safran! Cheers from The Netherlands
A few people are shocked 🙀😳🤣
I'm a tractor explorer!😂 Actually its quite spot on.
P.s Am over 6ft and about 16 stone + o _. Went camping last year with 50l plus 30l (however you are right got light tent etc) and it did 4hrs + @70ish in torrential rain no probs)

@@SaffySprocket Je vous en prie Mademoiselle! At your service🫡
Hei Sa I liked your review of Royal Enfield Himalayan 411.Infact the machine will be more better by importing some of the features of Royal Enfield Himalayan 450.Above all Nice review 🎉
Hi Saffy, there is a technique for getting on and off a motorcycle with ease, left foot on footpeg, left hand on handlebar or both hands on bars, then stand up on left leg and swing right leg over😉 the opposite for dismounting 👌🏻

Hi Saffy, I'm a lot older than you. I hate digital speedos, love analogue. So much easier to take in. Strange how different points of view can be.
Another thought about your comments on commuting. Your commute involves motorway type roads. Often when people talk about commuter bikes they are thinking of city commutes. I would suggest it has sufficient power for city work.
I hope you can cope until you get your Honda back. No doubt Honda is missing you as much as you miss Honda!
I really just think it depends on what you learnt with! I'm sure if I rode with an analogue Speedo, I'd get use to it but it scares me 🤣
Saffy the cutest Bikergirl in EU
🥰🥰🥰🥰
The urban offroadness gives me "Getaway Bike of the Year" vibes.
This is one of TH-cam's best Only Rides channels.
Hi. Please ride a motorcycle out of a plane.
One better than that glorified dirtbike.
Hi Saffy...my wife used to ride....small than me but when we went to Dealers they automatically thought she wanted a lower bike than me. However, her legs are 3 inches longer than mine !!!!....
Deceptive isn't it! I'm quite tall but I think I'm more body than legs 🤣😂
Thanks, enjoyed ❤
Thank you so much 😊
I could pick some of your points , but I loved your take on the old girl & enjoyed listing to your opinions and experiences with it. Well done. Cheers from downunder.
Thanks for tuning in, mate! Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers from across the pond! 🍻
Cheers, enjoyed that review, I'd like to see a comparison with the 450 version......
I'm super excited to try it!!!!
Being that you've had both now, would you be interested in doing a comparison between the Royal Enfield 411 Himalayan and the Honda CB500X as both are great bikes in the light adventure bike market?
You should try new Himalayn 450, 40 hp power- water cooled engine, better sunspension and 2 kg lighter.
Pretty good review :) However, i am not convinced to dropy dominator just yet. Prove me wrong!
I am wondering how and when you are getting your 500x back to the UK.😊👍🏍
Good question! Needs to be before May as the insurance told me they're not renewing it if I don't bring it back 😭
Please do a testride on a Triumph Tiger 850 sport or Tiger 900 Gt pro❤ Would love to see what you think about it😀
To remove mirror paniors are in bike compartment...
Are you certain it's a Himalayan 411 this time? 😉🤪🤣😂🤣
Good job on the review. It's an interesting bike, very capable and very under-rated. I think people get hung up on the lack of power and what-not but Itchyboots proved that the outgoing model is a capable machine. The newer model is an upgrade in almost every way. It's more of a tank on two wheels, straight forward and made to take a lot of abuse. Not a fan of the navigation situation.
2023 version doesnt have the tripper.
I honestly had such a major panic when people started commenting this 😂 was sat checking the reg on DVLA checker like IT SAYS ITS A HIMI ahahhahah I swear to god you're all going to give me a heart attack
@@SaffySprocket Hopefuly no heart attacks for you. All in good fun. 😀
an entertaining short arse, good video, thanks. off road tyres are chalk and cheese
Thanks 😊
you shouldn't need to stare at the speedo, getting used to the tone of the engine will happen eventually if you own the bike long term
Yes, I can mentally drop to 30mph and know the speed without looking at my bike! Human minds are incredible aren't they
I want to see "Sprocket on a Rocket".....
It’s ok , but that rattling engine sounds like a Perkins 3 deseil 🤣🤣
With the impending availability of the 450 dealers are selling these off and you can pick shinny new one up for a tad under £4000. I am sure that this will have a knock on effect for the second hand market and prices there will also tumble. I have never ridden one of these so I might be speaking out of turn when I say that I can't believe why anyone in Uk would buy one of these other than because they are cheap. They are made for bimbleing around the back roads of third world contries where 24 horse is enough. I have a couple of freinds who bought one of these and claim to have loved them only to sell them on after less than a year. There are many similar very low milage 411's for sale on eBay so people seem to out grow them rapidly.
They're great for Wales! No motorways, 20mph speed limits, green lanes!
Is this actually an old video ?
No why?
@@SaffySprocket I just thought it looked like one you'd done previously when I was a subscriber...my mistake then.
411 is already discontinued in India,no we have the Himalayan 450
Saffy sprocket Chelsea tractor
Go girl go 🏍
Chugga chugga chooooo chooooo
This bike is what the price is. Cheap, rust prone, and low quality. It sounds like a tractor but it does the job. I wouldn't take it on a long trip off road but that's me. Honda Africa Twin or BMW GS that's what I would trust.
Doesn't matter what brand and type of bike I ride as long as it is a Kawasaki Vulcan. 😉
I took one out on demo , it was so flipping slow .
Its not a bike for speed! But, it's good for what it does!
@@SaffySprocket As long as you’re happy with it 🙌🏻
I think YEZDI adventure bike is better than re Himalayan 411.i am from india.in India royal Enfield is getting strong competition from JAWA YEZDI company.jawa yezdi is producing bike with liquid cooled engine.yezdi adventure is the first Indian adventure bike with a liquid cooled engine.yezdi adventure is faster than Himalayan 411.its lighter than himalayan.looks of the both bike are almost same.but yezdi is more powerful than Himalayan .cause its engine can produce 30 bhp power output.yezdi bike is having all led light setup.metre console of yezdi adventure is fully digital including integrated navigation facility.yezdi bike has company fitted type c charging socket.also yezdi adventure bike has 6 speed manual gears.price of yezdi adventure bike in India is around 2,560 British pounds which is almost same with himalyan 411.but yezdi adventure is equipped with 334cc engine.fuel average of yezdi adventure is 30 kmpl.fuel tank capacity is 15.5 litre.top Speed is 145 km.i think yezdi adventure will become popular if it goes to the Europe.you can check that bike on TH-cam
All is going well until the wheel comments ...
Made you look a little bit childish, unfortunately.
Childish ... :p are you new here 🤣
Royal Enfield must have been cringing when you were describing the typical user
Most people cringe at me it's cool 🤣😎
So not a fan of the instruments But over all your in love hey Saffy ? I can see why 😉
Calling it light weight is a bit far fetched.
Disagree with light traveling adventure, i know people who have toured on this bike 2up fully loaded and had no issues...horse power is for speed. Torque is for low down power which is perfect for heavy weight on a bike and not speed....soo i disagree with intro....
And this bike was built for india and if you uave been to india you will often see family of 3 or 4 on this bike and Indians are noe getting fat these days....and you wont believe amount of stuff they can and do carry on these bikes.....with no issues...if seat was bigger i expect in india they would put full size cow on the back and torque on himi woyld cope well .
Was machst du nur im Gelände du beherrscht das doch überhaupt nicht !
CB500X or the new NX500 with the new TFT dash any day, Himalayan looks dated, like something from 30yrs ago.🤢
That's what I like about it!!! Although I just can't get use to analogue dashes 😅🥲😅🥲😅🥲😅
@@SaffySprocket yes it does the job, and it is as cheap as chips, but it’s ugly, who wants fork, gators these days, I would rather spend my money on fish chips and mushy peas, there are much more nicer looking and more capable mid range adventure bikes out there Just for a few extra bucks, I ride the same bike as you, the CB50X 2023 model in black.
I wish I’d waited now for the NC 500 Just for that TFT dash.
Ride safe Saffy 👍🏻
411 is old now try new himalayan 452 its better than this
Could do without all the crap up front. Just a speedo and some idiot lights.
Gothy Sprocket wouldn't like it.
Your hair is beautiful
🥰 thanks
👋
I found it to dam slow ..went out then brought a triumpht120..loads better 😂
