Hello and greetings from Germany have a Bs4! I love this machine with all its mistakes !! Now have 10500 km on the clock! It is very convotable and suitable for travel !!
It is such a key parameter.. braking capabilities!.. often ignored/ sidelined and instead 0.1 sec faster acceleration/ 0.2 kmpl ARAI Fuel Efficiency is spoken so much!!.. as if they really make a difference at all..
@@pravinmurthy He addressed the braking issue quite comprehensively considering the duration of the video. Whenever there's a new product it's important to state even the minutest of the details, no matter how small their effect is.
I have rode a couple of BS4 Himalayans (borrowed or rented) and Personally, i found the braking on BS6 more confidence inspiring. The brakes on BS4 might be sharper/tighter, but the braking kicks in vary late, just before your heart stops permanently :P With BS6, it's more controlled. Plus, the engine is definitely more refined.
Nice Video Buddy, I live in a country where fixing a flat tire is a pain and highways have high speed.... Through you, I would like to request RE to please put the sixth gear and tubeless tires in Himalayan and Interceptor .......
After riding the Himalayan both on plains and mountains, I concluded that it's all marketing gimmicks and paid up reviews that has led to fool the viewers in buying this vehicle. The bike is nowhere near to what all reviews say about it. Instead of blindly buying any vehicle based on it's reviews, I urge everyone to take a test ride before making a decision. If the showroom is not offering you a test ride, then go get it from some friend.
@pushkar Mishra aptly said. This is happening for most of the bikes these days. The reviewers will say the bike doesnt vibrate at all, the showroom wont give you test rides and when one buys the bike, it just rattles everything to pieces. One should only and only buy a bike after riding it.
Zigwheels please make a similar acceleration run for all BS6 bikes in comparison to their BS4 ones.. It would be fun to know what are the machines capable now..
@Zigwheels The drop in braking performance is due to the extra 5 kgs in bump as the braking system on the Himalayan BS6 is exact same as that of the BS4. The brakes can get better after running a fair bit of kilometres. You can either bleed the brakes or even go for some better set of pads like Ceramic Pads from Vesrah or even the Metal Compounds from EBC can make a huge difference in the performance. That's an investment of 2000-2200(for both front and rear) rupees for the Vesrahs or 2800-3000(per pad) for the EBCs. And again the answer, BS6 Himalayan is the better product here. The refinement and the addition of those new features like the Switchable ABS makes it all the more a value for money proposition. And about the performance, the Exhaust from Indimotard (Greasehouse Grunt V4) can make up and even more for the performance with an addition of 3-4 bhp along with a weight reduction of 3kgs comparing the older exhaust. A replacement air filter from K&N or BMC along with a full LiquiMoly service can make your Himalayan a great machine.
Thanks Elvin. Very useful information for me here, a BS6 owner. any more ways to reduce that weight further. Any parts (which are unnecessarily heavy) to be replaced with alternatives maybe?
Bro please tell me I don't have bs4 and bs6 in this month i plant to buy himalayan for college and travelling please suggest me which is better to buy bs4 or bs6 for long term use in on road and off road
In the real world the differences between the BS4 and BS6 don’t matter at all. It’s only academic. Hopefully there should be no issues or quality goof ups, that’s the main thing. I guess only time will tell once we have more BS6 H’s on the road. Cheers
I own a bs6 Himalayan. The rear braking is good as compared to my friends R15 V3 but the front brake feels soggy due to the long travel suspension. The bike takes time to stop into still but the brakes are capable of making it much slower to let you manoeuvre from the obstacles. As compared to the weight, braking is fine. And the money paid for it will worth! No worries..
I sold my Himalayan because of poor brakes and was thinking of buying the new one. Now after hearing that brakes suck, Himalayan will only be history for me. Let’s look at the KTM adv now.
Someone from Zigwheels..please do a giveaway from those awesome model cars ....as talking of the Himalayan....I was once one of the first generation Himalayan owners and in my tenure of only 10 months I have spent some serious times at diff RE services all across Delhi-NCR-Ggn area...but on the other hand my personal longest solo trip from Delhi-Kolkata-Delhi was only the BS4 Himalayan and boy..the Himalayan showed up with an awesome performance...but it's sad to hear that the BS6 version too have a poor braking performance...may be they need to change from bybRE to proper Brembo-s may be...I know it would invite a price hike but I guess that would be lesser than the doc and hospital bills...
@Arun Nadar Oops...I forgot mentioning "just kidding" for the giveaway thingie in my comment....and regarding brakes you're righto...when I had the chance of a test riding the Continental 650, felt the brakes were better, aside the unbelievable smoothness and that too on a RE...
@Arun Nadar i am planning to buy interceptor 650 soon, just analysing the stuff whether it will match my dream or not. I am bit confused about mixed reviews. And my main purchase to opt is for touring. Will that suits better?
@@Manojkumar-th8lm do check out the footpegs, they struck your feet when you have legs down in traffic or while backing up your motorcycle, and seat is a little uncomfortable for long journeys, I'm not into long distance touring so i bought continental gt 650 but took test drive of both
why would anyone think of buying a BS6 Himalayan by selling BS4 Himalayan!.. BS4/ BS6 what difference it makes for the end customer!.. It is just an emmision norm as mandated by Govt for the manufacturers..
Modern age people don't know science they just want to look good but still spokes are better looking and absorb more shocks from twisting and bumping so you make no sense 🤷🏻♂️
As an owner of bs4 himalayan.. I felt happy and grateful hearing this
Same 😂😂😂😂
Hello and greetings from Germany have a Bs4! I love this machine with all its mistakes !! Now have 10500 km on the clock! It is very convotable and suitable for travel !!
Just take care of Chassis, mine broke within 14 months after purchase 17k km in Odeometer.
Im proud to have a BS4😍🙏
So now one can bump into 2 more cars while braking on a bs6 himalayan

If you are a Noob
Haha
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
The front brake gets noticeably better after 1000 miles 👍🏻

Good information 👍 thx bro and I'm happy to having BS4 Himalayan 😍
Is the breaking numbers correct.. if it’s stopping that late from 100 then there is high chance of rubbing shoulders with the vehicle ahead..
Nice Video Buddy, I live in a country where fixing a flat tire is a pain and highways have high speed.... Through you, I would like to request RE to please put the sixth gear and tubeless tires in Himalayan and Interceptor .......
BS4 is Quicker and BS6 is more Fuel Efficient.
Nice 1 Arun👍👍
Proper and helpful information.
pls give review of Mahindra Mojo BS6 vs BS4
and comparing with Bajaj Dominar 250 ,Yamaha Fz 25 , Suzuki Gixxer 250 and Himalayan.
Also add Cruising Speed without vibrations to this list next time. A very important stat for tourers
Great review
But arun looks like kattapa if he takes his mustache away
Plz make a vdo between interceptor vs dominar400 gud vdo 👍👍
arun very nice video 👌

Bro it is not a mountain bike , a little bit of off road and highway 🛣 tourer !

Worth watching!

@Arun Nadar Thank you!
Bs6 FZ 25 or bs6 dominar 250 which one is better
Thanks for video! Interesting details.
Is there any chance that this Himalayan will get bigger 650cc based on interceptor?
Compare it to bs3 you come to how raw power it contain in bs 3
Do this for the twins too 👍
Thanks Zigwheels. I am keeping my BS4 non ABS model😄
Please do this for twins as well, thanks
Congratulations for the comparison! Someone knows the technical improvements beyond what is noticed by the report news and youtubers?
wow !! thats a big difference in breaking distances.

@Arun Nadar that's true but I'd really appreciate any sort of valuable review if and when you guys probably have your hands on one.
Make a video on Dominar 400 and 250
In the real world the differences between the BS4 and BS6 don’t matter at all. It’s only academic.
Hopefully there should be no issues or quality goof ups, that’s the main thing. I guess only time will tell once we have more BS6 H’s on the road.
Cheers
Dominar bs6 vs himalayan bs6 comparision plz...
Please make a video on duke 390 bs6 vs bs4 @zigwheels

100% won't be wrong😂.

Sir, I purchased Honda shine bs6 in June, 1 St service completed in recently but speed doesn't go beyond 60 , what's the problem , let me know
Speed lock
Can you make a video on why does RE bike makes less power despite being high on CC
Because they are long stroke engines, they don't produce much hp but are good for torque on low rpms

Mojo
End of 2024 KTM is history, too.
As an Ex RE owner... “Modern RE’s” are still outdated.
Cbr650r is not yet reviewed in any of the big automotive channels i wish you should review cbr650r
No big automobile journalists can do bcz most of them àre based in maharastra😅
@Arun Nadar i wish experts should do it soon
Gt650 bs4 vs bs6... Please
You didn't mentioned the difference in the refinement section 🙄
Or shall I assume there wasn't anything to talk about 🤷♂️

Good 👍
Apni to Bs4 hi acchi hai bhai.
Just see the prices of the new bikes going sky high.
Do the same with dominar
whohhhh that goadly beard😁👍
@zigwheels could you update on interceptor 650
@Arun Nadar i am planning to buy interceptor 650 soon, just analysing the stuff whether it will match my dream or not. I am bit confused about mixed reviews. And my main purchase to opt is for touring. Will that suits better?

Informative video , but mine is bs3 ,
Best bro...
Braking is always a setback issue for RE..Taking tym more n more to improve it..
Huh no dominar 250 review
If the front brakes are sub-par, just replace it with a bigger master.
600 kms on a full tank is definitely a wrong statement!
Would love to see such video on RE Bullet Standard 350.
why would anyone think of buying a BS6 Himalayan by selling BS4 Himalayan!.. BS4/ BS6 what difference it makes for the end customer!.. It is just an emmision norm as mandated by Govt for the manufacturers..
new Mojo !!!!
When you try to brake at a speed of 100 km , it is always a risk...so better ride slow and enjoy...
Where are Huskies !!
NAMASTE ❤
interceptor 650 bs4 vs bs6
the break already wasnt that great, now its even worse? come on

Dominar bs4 vs bs6
When we can expect adventure version with alloys, it's become bored now...
Modern age people don't know science they just want to look good but still spokes are better looking and absorb more shocks from twisting and bumping so you make no sense 🤷🏻♂️
