@@NewsXAuto thank you very much for the reply! subscribed :) brother, is there any chance you could take the bike onto some fairly steep off-road paths? this is my only concern, that the bike will struggle on steep uphill dirt at the moment i have a DRZ400S, which is very capable off-road, but not so good for covering long distances on road. my hope is that the himalayan 450 will also be able to do the same tracks i do on the DRZ once it has some better 50/50 tires! any info/opinion you can give me would be much appreciated!
@@pitchwife7573 thank you so much for subscribing! You'll be pleased to know that the Himi 450 doesn't struggle at all even at the steepest dirt sections even with stock rubber! 😃 The only thing you MIGHT have to watch out for is the weight, but I am guessing you are a tall person (since you ride the DRZ), so you won't really have any issues with the reach! Hope this helps! 😃 Also, which country are you from?
Bro I watched this. I got mine delivered few days back I need help on two things Since I m running in the engine it's in mumbai road conditions where even if you don't want some lugging does happen because of people coming in between, frequent gear changes etc I am really struggling as this does not have anything in 1 nd 2 gears, also m facing vibration in gear 1 and 2. Please suggest a better way to run in and how much lugging is ok??? Also are the vibes normal as I feel I hear constant buzzing in these gears, this maybe due to the vibes in the windscreen
After going through all the videos on Himalayan, this was the most informative, worth anyone's time before buying (i am geeting mine next month, hopefully!). Riding bikes for more tha 15 year but did not know the bike should not be kept at a constant speed, never saw that info readers manual, and makes complete sense. The lugging concept, I knew but very well explained. Thanks so much, i can just skip the readers manual now (happily). ❤
Very useful information, I have not seen this kind of information in any of the other TH-cam videos about this bike. There are tuns of videos on Himalayan, but this one the best and deatiled, not created just for views and likes. Thanks a lot 🙏
Modern automotive engines break-in heavily within 1-2 hours. Even SAE tests for wear are 20-30 mins on the dyno. Mostly, the rate of frictional wear does not increase significantly after 10 hours of running. Latest CNC surface roughness tolerances are 1-3 microns, so the variations for the finished assembly are not high. Additionally, low tension compression/oil rings and lightweight pistons have lesser slap. A good way is to replace the stock engine oil/filter after 50-100 km of steady medium load riding with full synthetic. Now, if you rebuild the engine, factory tolerances are lost and a lengthy run-in is essential. The simulation image is outdated.
Break-in use to happen at very fast rate when plateau honing wasn’t introduced, but with that in place the breakin takes significantly longer, besides as author said, for ring compliance you need to carefully break in for recommended schedule to take care say 4th order distortions etc which is not surface quality related. Modern engines can take as long as 12k miles for it to get to optimum performance. The breakin on dyno is to achieve quick compliance so that the power figures and performance is accurate and not way off the scale. But there is no substitute for proper breakin schedule no matter what. One way to reduce bore distortion is to carry out the final machining of the bore with a deck plate that can reproduce some of the distortions that occur from the cylinder head bolts but on production engines it’s not done.
@GautamChatterji Agree 100%, it takes around 10000 km or more for a 50%+ plateau. However, I was coming to a different discussion on the break-in as the rings bed-in correctly (positive ring sealing) under gradually applied but variable HIGH loads during the initial run. Speaking from a tribological perspective, the two main reasons for improper break-ins are low power and the use of dirty lubricating oils . In layman's terms, why would you want particles circulating in the engine for 500 or 1000 km when we have decades of proof indicating that wear during the first hour of the engine run is the worst? I think this is really important and is not followed by manufacturers as they don't want to burden the average customer with an immediate maintenance appointment. That said, I own and work on my 2 civics and a CB500, I followed the 100 km oil change the first night from the dealership and a second at 500 km. At the 100 km change, a visual inspection alone was enough indicator to get rid of the factory oil. The 500 km change was not as dirty. The civics have ~290000 km and ~120000 km respectively, and the engines run as good as new. After that its 8000 km intervals assuming 70-80% highway use.
@@drury2d8 you are now agreeing that break-in is essential, but you had started off by incorrectly stating that it's not required 😃 It is very much required, and that too not on a dyno but under the weight of the vehicle at varying engine speeds. And I totally agree with the first oil change between 50-100 km, and also with the fact that the manufacturers don't want to burden the customers with it for obvious reasons. Ideally, it should be the norm that the first oil and oil-filter change at 100 km would be done by the manufacturer free of charge. If wishes were horses... 😃
@@drury2d8 I personally feel vindicated..I've always done 2 first services on bikes/cars. For my bikes, it's 200km, 800-1000. After after that, 60% of recommended mileage.

Thanks for the video Shiraz, i have been running in my himmy for the past few days and i wanted to mention some things. (Please correct me if anything wrong) 1. The bike is not great to drive below 3k rpm, so shifting to second is difficult when in city traffic. I mostlty keep it in first in crawling traffic (till 4-4.k). Revving it a little high in first over knocking it in second. 2. In crawling traffic you cannot let go of the clutch completely. You have to begin feathering the clutch as you fall below 2.5k rpm (15km). This is not a bike you can drive around like a classic 350. This is unavoidable, am i right? 3. I have been holding on to certain speeds for 20 to 40 seconds before varying engine speeds. Eg. Hold it at 80 in 6th for 1 min, then do the same in 5th, then in 4th. This varies the engine rpm while allowing a constant speed, i feel its safer in highway. Howver you are varying the speed very quickly which i feel is a bit unsafe. Is this correct? 4. There is a ton of heating on the right side (alone) when crawling in traffic for long. Does this get better after 1st service?
Great video, my one question is that people cant wait to take this bike offroad before crossing the 2k mark. This bike will go offroad after 500kms for sure. How would you recommend the running in procedure while taking this bike offroad considering the tire will break loose on dirt, the engine will be revved out more etc ?
@@NewsXAuto Thanks man - Mumbai! I didn’t anticipate a quick response, so thanks for that too - I ride on the highway 90% of the time so I was trying to understand the speed and RPM I can be comfortable with
Thanks for the comprehensive video! Just 2 questions: Q: 32 PSI on both tyres - only when the motorcycle is delivered or is this the standard tyre pressure for Himalayan? Q. Let it idle for atleast 2 mins - only when the motorcycle is delivered or should this be followed throughout the running in period?
@@Off-road-Agooli I know. Watch the video to know what you have to follow from the manual and what you Do NOT have to follow. And I have mentioned the reasons as well.
Shiraz bhai, loved your effort and loved the care you gave to a testing motorcycle even more! Because now I know only after the proper running in you’ll give your refinement view on the engine and other performance characteristic reviews bulls eye! You know I chose the Triumph Speed 400 on your thorough review and I just love it ❤️ Will follow all the guidelines you provided in this video on my motorcycle, because I love it ❤ being a mechanical (production) engineer myself, and participating in Maruti Suzuki Supra event held at Budhh Racing circuit ( Engineering students F1 Prototype build), I definitely know how advanced machining still takes many RPM cycles to get set ( loved the previous love bonding point 😂).. aap sab ko mechanical engineer banaoge Shiraz bhai❤ and fayda yeh hoga ke to the point kaam ki cheezein seekhenge aap ke students 🤣 Loved your effort, and loved your concern for the machine even more!

Sir I have 2 questions 1. I have 950km in my odometer sometimes I lug my bike in 3 gear because of traffics will it cause any issue for the engine 2. What's the riding guide for 500- 2000km for himalayan 452 Your suggestion would be really helpful
Have answered both in the video! You must watch it. I know it's a long video, but more than worth every millisecond considering the impact it would have on your bike 😃
Sir, I came across this video a few months ago, and I have repeatedly watched this and the tractability video since then. In fact, the day before I brought my Himalayan 450 in the last week, I went through both videos thoroughly and followed them as a tutorial, as I want to follow all the necessary things that are good for my bike's health. Just today I was reading through all the comments when I came across one comment thread where there is a discussion about engine oil and the oil filter change to be done between 50 and 100 km. But the Himalayan 450's first service is scheduled at 500 km, or 45 days. I have already covered 150 km, mostly on the highways, with the maximum speed of 50 kmph up to 3rd gear. Could you please guide me on how to go about it? I am fairly new to this motorcycling world, and I am not sure how to ask the service center people to do it early. Could you please help me?
@@swapnil640 Don't worry about it. Just take your bike for the first service at 450 -500 km. That changing of oil between 50-100 km is something I would do for my bike. Everyone else doesn't really have to do it. Just do the running in like you are, and you'll be sorted 😃
@@NewsXAuto Sure Sir! Please continue making such nuanced and informative content to keep new riders getting better in their skills, especially on Himalayan 450. You are absolutely awesome. God bless you. 🥰🙏
half clutch is not just for 500km or 2000 km it is a slow poison i do get your point of maxout at 4k rpm for 1-5 gear speed varaiation was a new thing to learn
You are most welcome and it's not at all a stupid question 😃 Downhill, ride it like you normally would. For example, normally, you would be in a gear lower to have maximum engine braking to avoid going off a cliff, right? Ride it in the same manner. Downhill, don't even think, "oh it's a new bike, should I pull in the clutch more frequently?" NO! It's business as usual. Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any confusion 😃
I shift around 3.5k rpm usually... below that the engine feels slugging and needs clutch work... in manual, 4k engine speed max is recommended for 0-500 kms
I have himmi I see the same issue while downshift and when I put 1st gear from neutral ,rest everything is smooth . Can someone confirm if it's the same for you guys? @NewsxAuto 09:00
@niranjan0066 yeah I have asked some technicians about it they all say it's normal in RE engine be It the 411 or 450's it will be alright over the time I still hear sounds in my bike while shifting 1st to 2nd and In 3rd too sometimes
@@Farhan3.057 but I feel we are doing something wrong because sometimes downshift is soo smooth like butter I don't even hear any sound , I wonder if we are not matching gear ratio /rpm . While downshifting
Imagine a roller massager kept at one point on your back. It would start hurting too soon, right? Now imagine the same roller massager taken all over your back, and you would be able to take it for hours, right? 😃
One hundred per cent 😃 In fact, I just recommended one of my subscribers from my other channel (Real Auto Reviews) to watch this for running in his new Triumph 😃
I bought mine yesterday and no one at RE team told a single thing on the delivery time. I asked how to drive, they said keep it under 4000 rpm and max 60-70 kmph till 500 kms.
I really appreciate your work. Taking out time and providing such valuable information. I have seen the full video. Thanks and keep up the good work. 👌🏻
Well I ride the bike at a constant speed and with the new Himalayan I was doing the same, thinking it’s friendly and smooth for the engine and saves a bit of fuel too. You saying not to do so has made me curious. Could you kindly elaborate more on this, as I don’t the overall health of the bike to deteriorate. Thank you.
Bhai mine Himalayan 450 09 January ko purchase kr liya hai.. Service book me 1st service 500 km pe aur 2nd service 5000 km par kah rahe hai…. Apke video me 2nd service 2000 par hai please apni opinion bataiye
I did oil and oil filter change at 400kms for HIM450 and i have also followed your instruction for running in till 500km. Now my question is - After 500km in 6th gear what is the maximum rpm or speed i should maintain? or shall i follow as mentioned in the manual not crossing the 6000rpm mark.
@@jeeneshraja9324 Not an issue then. You may take it up to 120 km/h in 6th. Just don't stay there for more than a few seconds. And remember to stop every hour (of continuous riding) and shut the engine for 15 mins. 😃
Been 2 weeks and my bike is 300plus kms I have tried my best to keep it smooth for most of the time but on the initial days maybe for 10 kms over all I had been changing gears quick and the kept the engine In that protesting area is it still ok ? Would it have caused significant harm ??
Sir, I keep revisiting this video because I am about to buy my H450. Thank you for making it so descriptive. Just wanted to ask if you suggest going by the manual of changing the engine oil at the recommended intervals of 10k or sooner.
@@brotorcyclistDepends upon my usage. There is absolutely no harm in 10k intervals if you are primarily riding in the city. But, if you're a nomad, who's always on the highways, I would change the oil at around 7-8k km...
@@NewsXAutoHi sir, got my Himalayan a few weeks back, completed 800 kms today. Followed your advice and the bike runs very smoothly. Wanted to share the update with you 😄
Is it recommended that we just take a bike for a long ride immediately after delivery for break in or just do it slowly by driving in city traffic for 100-200kms and then go for a long one?
First 500 km ke pahale ham kitani distance bina ruke ja sakate hai jisse hamari Himalayan 450 me koi dikkat na aee??? Aur hum first 500 km me kitana weight leke chalana safe hai??? Please help
Hi. I have this bike and I have noticed that it leans towards the right side. I also rode the test ride vehicle and it was also leaning towards the right. The service centre guy said that it is a common issue and nothing is to be done. What is your take on this?
I have one question. Can we perform engine breaking during breaking in period ? if we can, then can we also perform rev matching ? I would think rev matching is a hard no since you have to instantly rev to high rpm which goes against having to gradually increase the rpm please help me
Because i heard everyone saying that engine breaking is good for the bike and all, so i want to know whether its okay for performing engine breaking in @@NewsXAuto
Hi bro how are you .? It’s was a good video very informative. Can you please help me I’m stuck between Himalayan 450 and continental gt 650 I’m in love with both the bikes and probably I’ll be getting one by month end which one should I go far .? I’ll mostly take it to office and once in 2-3 months I’ll go for long ride which one is more reliable in long term .?
Hi I am getting the new guerilla 450 this Sunday. I just wanted to ask that, can we break in the engine in a week, riding 100 kms daily from that day only, like straight out of the showroom I do 80kms, with frequent breaks ofcourse. Is it ok for the bike's health to ride long distances in the break in period??? And is it ok if i travel 300kms in one go in the break in period with obviously following the break in rules??
@@NewsXAutothankyou so much for the quick reply Helps a lot 😄 There are very less informative channels nowadays. Happy to say you are not one of them.
Does gradually take up speed to 90-95 before 500 km means to inc the speed gradually in every ride (e.g. 75 in 1st ride 85 in 2nd) or inc the speed in first ride slowly to 90 (like slowly increase the throttle instead of increasing it aggressively)?
@@NewsXAuto Thanks for the clarification. It would be nice to have a video from you on Pre delivery inspection sir. If possible please make it, that would be helpful for many members.
Hello sir I have recently purchased powerage exhaust for my gt 650 and i have fit it to my motorcycle. But I observed that there was some minor air leak from both the exhausts. Is this normal or should i be worried about this?
@@NewsXAuto it's not a major leak. But there is minor leak. So how can I solve this issue? I heard that once i ride the bike for some 300kms carbon will deposit in the slight gap and the air leak will be stopped . Is this true? Or should I use some kind of silicon sealent
I.did. And even mentioned what to do if you're scared of taking it up to that speed! Please watch it again. You may choose the playback speed as 1.5x 😃
Then you will have to get up early in the morning and do as told in the video for at least 50 km daily. The rest of the day, ride like you would normally. Just don't lug the engine. Hope this helps! 😃
Last time I bought a bike the mechanics red lining it in shop 😂. Stop stop. Higher temps used on racing bikes to seal rings better for more poeer but they rebuild them twice a week😂.
i am riding bikes from the age of 16. currently i ride 5 bikes from 125 discover to 400cc dominar. i never did anything what you said on your video on any of my bike. but still never faced any problems. just ride any new bike below 5000-6000rpm before 1st service. its that simple.@@NewsXAuto

Bro, I need to lower my seat hight because 825mm is bit higher for me. I couldn’t find 805mm seat from RE anywhere in Bengaluru. So can I reduce the riding hight by lowering the rear suspension? Or removing some cushion from the current seat? What’s your thoughts on this? Kindly suggest.

2. In crawling traffic you cannot let go of the clutch completely. You have to begin feathering the clutch as you fall below 2.5k rpm (15km). This is not a bike you can drive around like a classic 350. This is unavoidable, am i right?
3. I have been holding on to certain speeds for 20 to 40 seconds before varying engine speeds. Eg. Hold it at 80 in 6th for 1 min, then do the same in 5th, then in 4th. This varies the engine rpm while allowing a constant speed, i feel its safer in highway. Howver you are varying the speed very quickly which i feel is a bit unsafe. Is this correct?
4. There is a ton of heating on the right side (alone) when crawling in traffic for long. Does this get better after 1st service?
1) ✅
2) ❌ (watch my tractability video)
3) ❌
4) Can't comment on heat as I rode the bike in peak Delhi winters 😃
Great video, my one question is that people cant wait to take this bike offroad before crossing the 2k mark. This bike will go offroad after 500kms for sure. How would you recommend the running in procedure while taking this bike offroad considering the tire will break loose on dirt, the engine will be revved out more etc ?
Thank you!
Offroading after 500k won't be an issue. Like I mentioned in the video, revving out more isn't an issue. 😃
Damn right to the points. everybody should fowllow it.
Thanx anyway for tell us clearly like that.

Sir I have 2 questions
1. I have 950km in my odometer sometimes I lug my bike in 3 gear because of traffics will it cause any issue for the engine
2. What's the riding guide for 500- 2000km for himalayan 452
Your suggestion would be really helpful
Have answered both in the video! You must watch it. I know it's a long video, but more than worth every millisecond considering the impact it would have on your bike 😃
Sir,
I came across this video a few months ago, and I have repeatedly watched this and the tractability video since then. In fact, the day before I brought my Himalayan 450 in the last week, I went through both videos thoroughly and followed them as a tutorial, as I want to follow all the necessary things that are good for my bike's health. Just today I was reading through all the comments when I came across one comment thread where there is a discussion about engine oil and the oil filter change to be done between 50 and 100 km. But the Himalayan 450's first service is scheduled at 500 km, or 45 days. I have already covered 150 km, mostly on the highways, with the maximum speed of 50 kmph up to 3rd gear. Could you please guide me on how to go about it? I am fairly new to this motorcycling world, and I am not sure how to ask the service center people to do it early. Could you please help me?
@@swapnil640 Don't worry about it. Just take your bike for the first service at 450
-500 km. That changing of oil between 50-100 km is something I would do for my bike. Everyone else doesn't really have to do it. Just do the running in like you are, and you'll be sorted 😃

Thank you so much for this valuable information. What should you do when the road is downhill? Maybe mine is a stupid question 🤔
You are most welcome and it's not at all a stupid question 😃 Downhill, ride it like you normally would. For example, normally, you would be in a gear lower to have maximum engine braking to avoid going off a cliff, right? Ride it in the same manner. Downhill, don't even think, "oh it's a new bike, should I pull in the clutch more frequently?" NO! It's business as usual. Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any confusion 😃
I shift around 3.5k rpm usually... below that the engine feels slugging and needs clutch work... in manual, 4k engine speed max is recommended for 0-500 kms
And I have mentioned when to follow and when not to follow it 😃
That was very insightful thanks!!
But can I know after 2000kms can we go beyond the peak rpm which is 5.5k gradually on a highway with open road?
@@amargoel5974 you can even redline the engine, but don't keep it there. Take it there and bring it back 😃

Can we perform engine breaking during breaking in period ?
