    Just acquired a used 2023 Himalayan with all the bells and whistles at a great price. I need to do a lot of maintenance to my 2014 VFR800 with over 200,000 miles and I cannot be without an MC. I live out in Joshua Tree Calif. so having a good little dual sport for exploring the desert is a necessity. So, I plan to keep her. Yes, she's slow compared to what I'm used to on the street with my Honda, but I'll just have to get used to it. The Royal Enfield can go places my other MC can't. Some riders have said I need a GS this or a Africa twin that, but I already have real dirt bikes for blasting across the desert off road. I explain it to them this way " I already have a stable full of thoroughbreds, but I also needed a sure-footed little donkey " I also get shunned by the big adventure bike crowd when I wave to them, but I notice they all have the same tires I have on my VFR. How far off road can they go on them sport tires?

    Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this bike. I’m wanting to get back to biking and this rings every bell. Just need to find a dealer in Dorset so I can get a test ride. Incidentally, the flickering TFT is the shutter rate of the camera. It might be worth checking if your camera is set to 50 or 60hz and then play with the shutter speed. The flickering is the TFT refresh rate and your camera is currently seeing it refresh. You are correct in issuing an epilepsy warning as some people suffer from Photosensitivity Epilepsy.

    Thank you, great video! It looks a simple enough set of tasks, but if done without care (or love!), there are lots of things that can go wrong - fairing bits pulled out roughly breaking fasteners, overtightened bolts, wrong oil, etc. Now think about who is more likely to do this with care, love and diligence - the person for whom the bike is their pride and joy, or some random person at a dealership or mechanics. I've learned the hard way that no one is going to care about doing a good job on your bike more than you do. While there are plenty of jobs that I couldn't/wouldn't do myself, for everything else I DIY it. With excellent content creators like Nick, all the information you need is out there.

    • @nicksepisode
      @nicksepisode 4 дні тому

      The scram because of its class and character. Although the 310 is a great option too. You can’t go wrong with any of those. Get the best deal you can and go with that.

    The amount of oil these bikes take is so small. I wish the dipstick was replaced with a viewing window. Biggest gripe with these things is that if used to high speed runs, they can get through that oil pretty quick so you have to keep a close eye on that oil level and so many make the mistake of screwing the oil dip stick in to check the level.

      If money wasn’t a factor then the guerrilla. The reason why is that it’s better for longer trips because of the extra power. If I was on a budget then the scram would serve me well, just might be a bit of a struggle pulling 60-70 for long hauls and overtaking would need planning !

I struggled to mount the 310GS at the dealership and I’m 5”8… It’s funny you say it took a while to build up speed.
