The summary is a 10/10. I’m absolutely loving this Channel. In all the long videos and the short reels the information is precise and very useful. I really appreciate the effort you guys put into helping us get the information. Thank you so much. Keep at it.
@@tingtongtingtong1450seedha seedha bol de ki anpad hai 😂 bc Hindi and English both are official languages of India and not national so stop HINDI'ing everywhere 👍 Not only Northies but also southies watch his video so English as an universal language is fine for everybody to understand..Ab mujhe pata hai tujhe kuch bhi samajh nhi aya hoga anpad 😂
@@tingtongtingtong1450yea it would be good but some international audience will have problems and also Hindi isn't understood widely by whole Indian audience maybe India needs a new common language also maybe try multiple audio tracks
Loved the summary format. You can keep this on TH-cam and save the longer format for audio podcast only. Very precise and on point. Thanks and keep the summary formats❤
You guys rock! I have started watching your videos recently and I must say that this is one of the best youtube channels I have ever watched. Everything is topnotch; quality, content, presentation, editing, graphics, camera angles, nice studio, outdoor locations, and above all two really passionate presenters. Cheers to you guys!! Shumi I liked your summary, it reminded me Kartikeya summarizing Triumph Scrambler 400X ❤ I have a request, please make a video of Triumph Scrambler 400x detailed review and if possible comparison with new Himalayan. Thanks and regards, Tasleem Arief
Too long yet too good! Those discussions are really good and helpful to listen to. I think that even if you keep the videos as long, only providing time stamps in the description box would do for people who do not want to sit through the entire discussion. Plus, you guys upload shorts of pros and cons for every motorcycle anyway.
@@motorinc Absolutely love your content. Seeing your videos pop up on my feed in the morning makes me happy like it is a therapy video! no matter what motorcycle it is about, it just feels good to listen to. Please keep making such videos and I hope your channel keeps growing
I took a test ride today on the new Himalayan 450. The engine truly stood out; it's noticeably smoother and more powerful, especially in terms of torque, with a distinct pumping sensation at initial RPMs. The suspension feels comfortable, and the brakes are significantly improved compared to the 411. Additionally, it's much friendlier for shorter riders like me (165cm). I had the opportunity to ride a machine that's continually used for testing, and amazingly, no heating issues were found. I consider the price reasonable, although I'm eagerly anticipating the tubeless version."
Most precise and accurate summary of Himalayan no nonsense no timepass. They are just serving what you want perfectly I will rate your summary 9/10. You have to slower down while explaining points it just feel like you’re in a rush that’s it from my side. Last but not least one of the best channel out there on TH-cam you guys are creating a content which is on another level the quality of your videos are just tremendous.
I absolutely love the long MotorInc First videos. But i totally understand that they may be too long for some people and tedious to derive information from. Hence this summary after the main video can cover all the important topics for people who just came for some quick info of a bike/car. Btw love what you guys do. Is MotorInc merch coming ?
10/10 Man...this channel is enough for setting up your Mind on buying a Motorcycle rather than watching 100s of videos and getting confused.. keep up the Good work 👍
Have watched the long format twice, and now the summary once again. As a Royal Enfield owner, and a fan of the brand, your reviews of their products are balanced, accurate, and always engaging.
while coming back from mysore to bangalore.. i thoroughly enjoyed the full episode on the new himalayan..and when Kartik said.. "Chassis" as the highlight point.. i was all ears.. have ridden the old one on the twisties near mumbai and pune and there was a constant grinning and felt a sense of happiness during the conversation that they have made sure to keep those himalayan characteristics with this new one.. excited to hop on.. have been saving for this beauty!
@@motorinc I'm expecting 15-20% rise in the prices which is reasonable because it's a completely new platform and so many new things are added.. however I'll wait for 2nd or 3rd batch.. and was saving for the past whole year along with my housing savings.. have saved about 2lacs just for the vehicle.. I'm happy with current vehicles.. an activa and a i10Nios. Whenever I wanted to have fun.. I would rent a vehicle and see what's in it.. and after riding the himalayan.. I fell in love with the adv nature..and now the dream's gonna come true soon!!
*just my personal opinion* The longer more detailed and discussed videos are what i associate motorinc with. I understand and my assumption is this is to cater to the greater masses . I do hope you stick to the longer videos as I love them and I feel it is what defines you guys and differentiates you guys from the masses. I always found motorinc focussing on quality rather than the quantity that needs catering to. Kudos for this attempt I do hope it helps bring in more viewers. Really love your work . If it works good for you....if it doesn't...still waiting for the next detailed LONG !!! Review/ first ride
I watched the entire hour long video and then watched this summary again. 10/10! The analysis on this channel is so sensible and spot-on! I watched several videos on the Himalaya but was waiting for the final stamp of approval from Shumi and Kartikeya. Now I can safely put this bike on my wishlist 😊
Simply superb and crisp😂review with great content and quality without the unnecessary umphs and extras. I have been riding this bike for 1000km now and it’s responding with great ease and exactly as mentioned in this vlog I’m loving your content and keep it coming ❤
Really great summary, plus another great video from MotorInc. As good as this summary is, I still love the longer version as one gets to see the love for motorcycles both Kartikeya and Shumi have. The whole long version is a one of a kind experience with all the tangents and the small inclusions and stories, etc from both of them. Keep up the great content!!!
"Bravo! You've made a Molehill of the H I M A L A Y A N !!! Talk about nailing it! Your summary deserves a perfect score - 11/10! Seriously, that was exceptional!
I currently own the r15 v3 2018 version, I rode my friends old model himalayan and immediately fell in love... Will definitely buy this one next, also i got a job in state police...so,will definitely buy using my own money... 😊this year's just been great!! Love your vids man, always comes to your vids to check on new uocoming motorcycles..
Nice job! I continue to look forward to and watch the long versions, and now will look for the short-version summary too. NOTE: I like that bite of sarcasm? at the end 'thank you for staying with us all to the end' of this short version summation. 😂
this is why I am fan of this channel - they have "this connect" then they have visually brilliant videos on bikes and cars they they have Quick Summary like this then they yt shorts too... what else does a motor enthusiast want?
When i saw that 1hr long video, my feeling at the end of it was that it's a 4 min video stretched into a 1hr long expression of feelings. And this one makes me feel good about my initial thoughts 😀 I still feel 20-30min is an apt duration for sharing most thoughts/feelings. Or may be for every hour long discussion (or anything over 40min), there can be a similar follow up video which could be 10min or so with the most imp details from the longer one.
I love your discussions, and solo performances from both of you, mostly 10/10. Difficult to say that for the motorcycle without riding it in actual. Having owned Himalayan for first 4 years riding approx 50k kms and upgrading to Suzuki V-Strom 650 (3yrs+ & 27k kms) I would be happy to find it somewhere in between. Only thing concerns me is an over square engine from a company that has been known for long stroke torquey motors.
I think the motorinc reviews and shorts are good enough for the people looking for shorter content. I've been consuming motorinc firsts through Spotify(audio only). I personally don't get a lot of value from this format, because the long drawn out discussions is what I find appealing about the firsts. Love the videos, keep up the great work🎉
The long one for picking up some Moto knowledge , free flow English speaking course , some banter, sarcasm , some interrgotiation skills of Shumi the cop, composed answering from the culprit looking Karthikeya, fun filled ...keep both going some like the journey longer
Never had a channel like this before, Iam no bike or car enthusiast, but I love design, engineering and technology,so i understand the tech aspect of it. I can tell one thing i love the reviews and the presentation in english
I think we need both formats, the summary and the analysis, not everyone has the time to listen to the whole thing, but the finer details usually come out in the analysis, which I personally prefer. I have ridden the OG for a very short distance and that was the BS3 and i liked it back then. This one I am totally in love with, since I havent really seen one in person let alone ride it, I really cant say how I would rate it. I am not planning to buy one, but really looking forward to atleast riding one. just over a day to go for the prices, I just hope its as low as they can logically price it. I hope this flies off the shelf (which is almost hard not to happen) just so that the competition takes notice and does something with their bike. I wish Hero also takes notice and may be provide a more potent competitor in the 400/440 guise.
The summary is 10/10. I mentioned it before as well, I purchased RE Meteor 350 after seeing your reviews on your previous channels. Now, I wish to upgrade from my bike to either of these RE Himalayan 450 or RE Int. Bear 650. Waiting for your videos on RE Bear 650😊🙏
I have the Himalayan 450, but I find the seat to be a bit uncomfortable. It’s a bit of a ball crushing experience, if you know what I mean. Which seat should I get to fix this problem. The rally seat, the adventure seat, the low seat, or none of these (can’t be fixed).
Touring seat, if more on-road oriented, along with longer rides but also comfortable for moderate off-road on the way. Or else go for the rally seat if more oriented from moderate to hardcore off-road and for basically shorter rides as it's narrower. Also, with the rally seat you get as little space as MT15 along with pillion, and neither the pillion would be any comfortable there.
Absolutely 10/10 for the summary and review. Like the lenght of thr video. The format is very interesting and gives a bird eyed view. So thank you for this. Keep making these short videos and also incorporate a comparo if possible. At last thank you with heart filled with love and support as always. 🦾👊🏻❤
Hi , I like watching your show coz you guys go into depth of automobiles in a very subtle way & make it so easy to understand the dynamics of it. I have a query on why don’t you guys do a show on Honda bikes ( BigWing ) etc
This is like a serious one with all the fun elements removed from th MotorInc First of the Himalayan 🤭 You guys might have got a harder time doing this than recording one with Shumi & Karthikeya You're always amazing 🤘
Displaying numbers on the screen when you talk about rpm , torque or speed would help make it intuitive and retain attention even in short video format and a long one too Kudos to you for trying something new :)
Brother bought the new Himalayan Kaza 15 days ago. He rode it to Ziro music festival after the first service from Darjeeling. Such an immense feeling machine on highways. My brother is also hooked to your motorcycle videos, Shumi. 😊 We are not planning on any upgrades/mods yet, neither to go with the tubeless tyres. What’s your opinion on the “puncture resistant slime/resin” to go with the tubed tyres? Thanks!
Brilliant...! Summary: 9/10. This format is particularly useful to share this with some friends of mine who have an attention span less than golden retriever puppies 😅😂
As always, great short video with no facies. The Himalayan 452 is a great answer and a much awaited treat from RE to all the adventure riders out there. But to be honest, I hate to call it an "Adventure" tourer/bike, not even the old himalayan. Its 21" front directly puts it to the more aggressive class of Dual Sport and Enduro. There's no doubt RE has another "world bike" in their shelves.,and this one is much to the likes of the extremely versatile Suzuki DRZ400.
What is you take on the engine being a stressed member connected with crankcase at one end and the cylinder head at the other? For a ADV wouldn't a cradle make more sense for rigidity ?
❤ Summary 10/10, full 1 hour video 💯/10, Himalayan price base variant 2.65 lakhs,ex-showroom. Himalayan as a bike 8/10. Waiting for further review from MotoInc. You always keep surprising. Keep it up.
For a long terms purchase AD, we suggest you get a test ride so you know what they’re like… and then do nothing till say April next year by when more about their reliability will also be known.
Loved the summary ...9/10 ..!! Only one thing viable alternatives and some thing for us noobs . How do you think it stands in terms of value with competitiors in class if any
How would it be for, like more of a commute and less touring? Just wondering if its fine in the city, will the weight & heat come into play in B2b traffic?
Heat is a given in any big bike @abhisheksarkar5851, riding gear will help with that, do wear it. But the Himalayan can be a city bike if that's what you want it to be. You just need to manage the size and the weight, both of which are very easy to do.
Thanks Samridh! No we don’t expect the electronics to be glitchy on Royal Enfield’s. They’re making some of the highest quality motorcycles already. But quality reputation takes time to reflect for sure
Hu shumi, Thanks for your swift response.I did a test ride for all the three.Meteor was a bit heavy and it was not easy to make u tuns in heavy chennai traffic and also the ergonomics was more suited for highway rides.HD X440 was also heavy but i felt more comfortable in heavy traffic.Even though looks were not that great and build quality was ok,once i rode the motorcycle,it made me forget these issues.It was heavy,but the weight distribution was good.Scrambler 400x was gorgeous to look at.It was comfortable in the heavy traffic.The seat height was on the higher side but i was able to manage it.Iam 47 measuring 5'8 and weighing around 72kgs and trying yo get back to bikes after 8 years.Bit confused between scrambler 400 & 440.What will be your choice?
Summary 10/10 as always by Shumi sir, Q1)were there stalling issues in low rpms.in 1st or second gears{pointed out by Yammie noob,testing multiple models} Q2)while watching other motorcycle reviews,I liked the way Mr Shumi compared its performance to Duke's models(or similar counterparts )in same performance range which gave almost a clear idea what to expect(also prefer to know his firsthand experience)...it would be great to have that with this RE and other future reviews 😊 Thanks 👍 [Also long format is my preferred one to watch]
Love this format. Would love to have a connect to disconnect podcast on engine maintainance points such as you pointed out about the correct oil change during breakin procedure of bikes and cars. About tyres maintainance , reviews. ❤
Shumi sirs ride experience will be fun to listen to. Saving for bike in 2025 it will be 390 or 452 . Hope can finalize which 1 till then , relying mostly on Shumi sir and Kartik sir and test drive to decide . Big fan of both of your genuineness ❤
@@harshgupta4563 I’m in Odisha and BMW has only one showroom (cuttack)and I’m planning my trips to western Odisha no help there. And also my friend has GS the maintenance is much more costly and riding experience is not that different.
1. How hard is the clutch, does it require one to sweat it in the gym to be able to use this clutch on long tours like the older one? 2. how is the top speed and the vibration, at what speed does the vibration start to make your hands feel numb?
10/10 summary and I believe if they somehow manage to undercut the scrambler 400x price a bit, even as introductory.. it would be a huge W for the himalayan.
I love the new format like a clear explanation as to what the bike actually is v/s the spec sheet i wouldve liked just some additional info on how it behaves in city traffic on open roads twisties and offroad for example is the bike tractable
Summary 8/10 now one is perfect I am not into off-road bikes and i have never tried or drove himalayan but i have only heard thing from my friends and other riders is that previous gen was that it doesn’t have tubeless types 2nd mc would be spoke wheels that I don’t thing is better for off-roading and then there is ton of vibrations 😅😊
The summary is 9/10. The price is explained. Want to ask how is it for the beginner and especially beginner and old rider like me. How is the weight to handle.
Do not worry about the weight. It’s easy to get used to in parking lots, and once you start riding you won’t feel it. The performance is meant to be friendly and it is.
Wow this summary type videos are great. You are giving the information in the best way possible. Just one thought, Shumi was saying “Karthik didn’t feel the bike…”. In such a scenario the narration would be better if the same person rode/drove the vehicle. Here it felt like Shumi was explaining what Karthik couldn’t. It is not so but felt so.
My 99% cummute is on broken concrete road 1% on paver blocks and planning to go on long ride once in a month, Which bike i should choose Scrambler 400x or new Himalayan.
Motorinc, you're doing a great job and very spot on reviews. My recent purchase of New Jupiter only because of your review and I got perfect scooter as per my expectations 😀 I want one opinion from switching to New himalyan from my 1st gen Interceptor 650. The reason is only because of discomfort to the pillion. My interceptor is a great bike and I like it a lot but only due to pillion seating discomfort I want to change the bike. Do you think it's a good option to switching to New himalayan ? You guys are doing great. Please reply 👍
Hi @13thtanmay, we think it should be good but take a test ride with them. Ask what they feel about the comfort. The 650's twin exhausts make the footpegs sweep up and the Himalayan doesn't have that issue! Please let us know what you thought. 😊
Please reply to this Riding my thunderbird 350x non abs from last 3 years clocked 60k kms till now and i had to change the tank 3 times yes 3 times. And still now i am getting the same issue that is petrol is getting leaked from gas pipe of tank again. Same issue i have faced earlier and was forced to change its tank which costs a whopping 12k. Now i am facing the issue again its not like lot of fuel gets leaked but because of leaking it creates issues while starting and sometime it just doesn't starts at all. I need to do some trouble shooting like switching from mains to reserve even when more than enough petrol is there in bike.i am sure its a manufacturing defect what can i do in this regard the service centre is blatantly refusing to acknowledge this as manufacturing defect and asking me to change the tank again. Can i go to consumer court what are the options i have how can i approach this please reply. Desparate need of a solution.
@@motorinc it can be but fuel is leaking from tank gas pipe as well.servicd centre guys are asking me to change thetank only what are the options i have. I am completely frustrated and disappointed with the service and issue
👍Thank you gentlemen. Your videos are very informative. I would give you guys 10/10 All I want to know will they be alloy wheels available with this bike in future (I never do off roading)
Hi Shumi I have started watching your videos in 2020. I found your detailed reviews very informative. I really love MotorInc, the conversation between you and Kartikeya is so impartial n to the point. I love riding bikes though I'm not a big bike kind of rider but I hope to meet you guys someday in the future.
The summary is a 10/10. I’m absolutely loving this Channel. In all the long videos and the short reels the information is precise and very useful. I really appreciate the effort you guys put into helping us get the information. Thank you so much. Keep at it.

I hope this flies off the shelf (which is almost hard not to happen) just so that the competition takes notice and does something with their bike. I wish Hero also takes notice and may be provide a more potent competitor in the 400/440 guise.
Hello!
The summary is 10/10.
I mentioned it before as well, I purchased RE Meteor 350 after seeing your reviews on your previous channels.
Now, I wish to upgrade from my bike to either of these RE Himalayan 450 or RE Int. Bear 650.
Waiting for your videos on RE Bear 650😊🙏
I have the Himalayan 450, but I find the seat to be a bit uncomfortable. It’s a bit of a ball crushing experience, if you know what I mean. Which seat should I get to fix this problem. The rally seat, the adventure seat, the low seat, or none of these (can’t be fixed).
Touring seat, if more on-road oriented, along with longer rides but also comfortable for moderate off-road on the way. Or else go for the rally seat if more oriented from moderate to hardcore off-road and for basically shorter rides as it's narrower.
Also, with the rally seat you get as little space as MT15 along with pillion, and neither the pillion would be any comfortable there.
Missed a few weeks due to work. Now I have a number of videos to watch back to back. Haha :D
Please do release the review for the Harley x440. The speed came out around the same time, but seems like the speed got the review super early.
The summary was 10/10 as always.. and you were so right about the pricing.. kudos
☺️
Absolutely 10/10 for the summary and review. Like the lenght of thr video. The format is very interesting and gives a bird eyed view. So thank you for this. Keep making these short videos and also incorporate a comparo if possible. At last thank you with heart filled with love and support as always. 🦾👊🏻❤
Thanks so much SS!
@@motorinc proud to be a part of the team. 👊🏻✌🏻
Spot on summary 10/10 excellent 👏🏼
Thank you!
Love your content. On point and no backwas.
Fallen in love with motoinc team
Thank you for being with us!
Love the cut version haha
I recommend watching the full video also!
Perfecto!
Hi ,
I like watching your show coz you guys go into depth of automobiles in a very subtle way & make it so easy to understand the dynamics of it. I have a query on why don’t you guys do a show on Honda bikes ( BigWing ) etc
This is like a serious one with all the fun elements removed from th MotorInc First of the Himalayan 🤭
You guys might have got a harder time doing this than recording one with Shumi & Karthikeya
You're always amazing 🤘
Hey Aravind! Glad to know you enjoyed it.
Displaying numbers on the screen when you talk about rpm , torque or speed would help make it intuitive and retain attention even in short video format and a long one too
Kudos to you for trying something new :)
Thanks for the recommendation!
Great point! Thanks RM!
As its not officially available on stores for a quick demo or view. I would say 10/10 for the info to consider re 450 himalayan
Thanks!
Great summary, but I would always want the long and engaging conversation that is the full episode of FIRST
Brother bought the new Himalayan Kaza 15 days ago. He rode it to Ziro music festival after the first service from Darjeeling. Such an immense feeling machine on highways. My brother is also hooked to your motorcycle videos, Shumi. 😊
We are not planning on any upgrades/mods yet, neither to go with the tubeless tyres. What’s your opinion on the “puncture resistant slime/resin” to go with the tubed tyres? Thanks!
I love the idea of the detailed long version being supplemented by this TL;DR / exec summary version.
Thanks Akaxe!
Everything on point, no nonsense review, its a 110/100
Thank you!
*12/10 for the SummaRap extra marks for the breathless/relentless rap 🥵*
Haha! Thanks!
10/10
short, crisp, on point.
Thank you!
Brilliant...!
Summary: 9/10.
This format is particularly useful to share this with some friends of mine who have an attention span less than golden retriever puppies 😅😂
Now we are just thinking about doggies. There goes the afternoon. 😁
As always, great short video with no facies. The Himalayan 452 is a great answer and a much awaited treat from RE to all the adventure riders out there. But to be honest, I hate to call it an "Adventure" tourer/bike, not even the old himalayan. Its 21" front directly puts it to the more aggressive class of Dual Sport and Enduro. There's no doubt RE has another "world bike" in their shelves.,and this one is much to the likes of the extremely versatile Suzuki DRZ400.
Hey Sharad! Good point! The reason why we don't classify the Himalayan as a dual sport is because it doesn't have the aggression in its DNA at all
It feels like a watching all the information in short reel like video. Very informative 9/10 shumi sir❤️
Thanks!
What is you take on the engine being a stressed member connected with crankcase at one end and the cylinder head at the other? For a ADV wouldn't a cradle make more sense for rigidity ?
❤ Summary 10/10, full 1 hour video 💯/10,
Himalayan price base variant 2.65 lakhs,ex-showroom.
Himalayan as a bike 8/10. Waiting for further review from MotoInc.
You always keep surprising. Keep it up.
Thank you Sudhakar!
You Guys always rock. Which bike do you suggest for a long term Himalayan 452 or Scrambler 400x
For a long terms purchase AD, we suggest you get a test ride so you know what they’re like… and then do nothing till say April next year by when more about their reliability will also be known.
Himalayan is the better all rounder. The Scrambler is a more fun city bike.
Loved the summary ...9/10 ..!! Only one thing viable alternatives and some thing for us noobs .
How do you think it stands in terms of value with competitiors in class if any
How to choose between the Himalayan, triumph scrambler, and KTM Adv? your advice please
How would it be for, like more of a commute and less touring?
Just wondering if its fine in the city, will the weight & heat come into play in B2b traffic?
Heat is a given in any big bike @abhisheksarkar5851, riding gear will help with that, do wear it. But the Himalayan can be a city bike if that's what you want it to be. You just need to manage the size and the weight, both of which are very easy to do.
@ Noted!
Summary was spot on!!!
2.4/2.5 ex showroom would be great ( more hope than realty).😊
Are the buyers going to be betta tester for ride by wire😂?
Thanks Samridh! No we don’t expect the electronics to be glitchy on Royal Enfield’s. They’re making some of the highest quality motorcycles already. But quality reputation takes time to reflect for sure
Summary is 10/10. Just waiting for the review of the bike.
👍🏽
Any idea about how much the additional tubeless spoke rims are going to cost ?
Your summary is 10/10
Hu shumi, Thanks for your swift response.I did a test ride for all the three.Meteor was a bit heavy and it was not easy to make u tuns in heavy chennai traffic and also the ergonomics was more suited for highway rides.HD X440 was also heavy but i felt more comfortable in heavy traffic.Even though looks were not that great and build quality was ok,once i rode the motorcycle,it made me forget these issues.It was heavy,but the weight distribution was good.Scrambler 400x was gorgeous to look at.It was comfortable in the heavy traffic.The seat height was on the higher side
but i was able to manage it.Iam 47 measuring 5'8 and weighing around 72kgs and trying yo get back to bikes after 8 years.Bit confused between scrambler 400 & 440.What will be your choice?
Hi, your doing good job keep it up. Wanted to know which one you will suggest is it Himalaya or Triump Scrambler bit confused on it
Please allow us time to thoroughly test the Himalayan first… we’ll revert on this
Sir... you just briefly explained almost everything within 5 min about himalayan... 😅
10/10 rating sir...
Thanks!
Summary 10/10 as always by Shumi sir,
Q1)were there stalling issues in low rpms.in 1st or second gears{pointed out by Yammie noob,testing multiple models}
Q2)while watching other motorcycle reviews,I liked the way Mr Shumi compared its performance to Duke's models(or similar counterparts )in same performance range which gave almost a clear idea what to expect(also prefer to know his firsthand experience)...it would be great to have that with this RE and other future reviews 😊
Thanks 👍
[Also long format is my preferred one to watch]
1) No we had no issues at all. Neither did anyone we rode with.
2) Can do!
Thanks AM!
@@motorinc thankyou 🙏💙💝
Love this format. Would love to have a connect to disconnect podcast on engine maintainance points such as you pointed out about the correct oil change during breakin procedure of bikes and cars. About tyres maintainance , reviews. ❤
Thanks for the suggestions! Can do!
The first impression video is proper. No need to shorten it at all..
Got it!
This was awesome. 11:10❤
Appreciate it!
Shumi sirs ride experience will be fun to listen to.
Saving for bike in 2025 it will be 390 or 452 . Hope can finalize which 1 till then , relying mostly on Shumi sir and Kartik sir and test drive to decide . Big fan of both of your genuineness ❤
All the best! Would love to know when that happens.
Why not BMW G310gs why no one talks about it.
@@harshgupta4563 I’m in Odisha and BMW has only one showroom (cuttack)and I’m planning my trips to western Odisha no help there. And also my friend has GS the maintenance is much more costly and riding experience is not that different.
Keep it up Guys.
You are Gems.
It’s the company we keep. 😉
1. How hard is the clutch, does it require one to sweat it in the gym to be able to use this clutch on long tours like the older one?
2. how is the top speed and the vibration, at what speed does the vibration start to make your hands feel numb?
Clutch is light.
Slight vibes at around 6k. Nothing disturbing. Whole day of riding - feet and palms were all okay.
10/10 summary and I believe if they somehow manage to undercut the scrambler 400x price a bit, even as introductory.. it would be a huge W for the himalayan.
We’ll know soon enough. 🤞🏽
can you tell 5.5 height rider can ride comfortable or not ?
Yes. Also, if you opt for the low seat it will be even easier
I love the new format like a clear explanation as to what the bike actually is v/s the spec sheet i wouldve liked just some additional info on how it behaves in city traffic on open roads twisties and offroad for example is the bike tractable
👍🏽
Summary 8/10 now one is perfect
I am not into off-road bikes and i have never tried or drove himalayan but i have only heard thing from my friends and other riders is that previous gen was that it doesn’t have tubeless types 2nd mc would be spoke wheels that I don’t thing is better for off-roading and then there is ton of vibrations 😅😊
How about the cone set issue are those issue resolved
The summary is 9/10. The price is explained. Want to ask how is it for the beginner and especially beginner and old rider like me. How is the weight to handle.
Do not worry about the weight. It’s easy to get used to in parking lots, and once you start riding you won’t feel it. The performance is meant to be friendly and it is.
11/10
Ek point shagun ka🤌🏼
Haha! Thank you Aakash!
Wow this summary type videos are great. You are giving the information in the best way possible. Just one thought, Shumi was saying “Karthik didn’t feel the bike…”. In such a scenario the narration would be better if the same person rode/drove the vehicle. Here it felt like Shumi was explaining what Karthik couldn’t. It is not so but felt so.
Please do watch the full video for the full “feels”!
My 99% cummute is on broken concrete road 1% on paver blocks and planning to go on long ride once in a month, Which bike i should choose Scrambler 400x or new Himalayan.
its always delight to watch the Highlights after the full match (like Sharjah and Natwest finals) .. Similar feeling :)
😁
@motorinc When i ride this i feel a delay in trottle response did you guys get this ? Or it is issue with bike i have ridden ?
where is the full review of the Himalayan
Motorinc, you're doing a great job and very spot on reviews. My recent purchase of New Jupiter only because of your review and I got perfect scooter as per my expectations 😀
I want one opinion from switching to New himalyan from my 1st gen Interceptor 650.
The reason is only because of discomfort to the pillion. My interceptor is a great bike and I like it a lot but only due to pillion seating discomfort I want to change the bike. Do you think it's a good option to switching to New himalayan ?
You guys are doing great. Please reply 👍
Hi @13thtanmay, we think it should be good but take a test ride with them. Ask what they feel about the comfort. The 650's twin exhausts make the footpegs sweep up and the Himalayan doesn't have that issue! Please let us know what you thought. 😊
Please reply to this
Riding my thunderbird 350x non abs from last 3 years clocked 60k kms till now and i had to change the tank 3 times yes 3 times. And still now i am getting the same issue that is petrol is getting leaked from gas pipe of tank again. Same issue i have faced earlier and was forced to change its tank which costs a whopping 12k. Now i am facing the issue again its not like lot of fuel gets leaked but because of leaking it creates issues while starting and sometime it just doesn't starts at all. I need to do some trouble shooting like switching from mains to reserve even when more than enough petrol is there in bike.i am sure its a manufacturing defect what can i do in this regard the service centre is blatantly refusing to acknowledge this as manufacturing defect and asking me to change the tank again. Can i go to consumer court what are the options i have how can i approach this please reply.
Desparate need of a solution.
Sounds like the issue is something other than the tank. Could it be the fuel line?
@@motorinc it can be but fuel is leaking from tank gas pipe as well.servicd centre guys are asking me to change thetank only what are the options i have. I am completely frustrated and disappointed with the service and issue
👍Thank you gentlemen. Your videos are very informative. I would give you guys 10/10
All I want to know will they be alloy wheels available with this bike in future (I never do off roading)
Thank you Umesh! We wouldn't rule out alloy wheels but as of today, they're not available
Hi Shumi
I have started watching your videos in 2020. I found your detailed reviews very informative. I really love MotorInc, the conversation between you and Kartikeya is so impartial n to the point. I love riding bikes though I'm not a big bike kind of rider but I hope to meet you guys someday in the future.
Look forward to that! And, thanks!
@@motorinc 🤗
10/10 for the summary. Saved me watching other videos.
😁
🤜🏽🤛🏽
The summary is 💯/💯
15/10 for shumi's summary! ❤❤
9/10 for the bike itself 😋
Legend! Thanks!
