  • Hello,
    I had the privilege of meeting and having a chat with Ben, who is the Engine Lead for the Himalayan 450 project. Ben and his team were responsible for developing this Sherpa 450 engine that powers the new Himalayan 450.
    So, who better than to hear it direct from the man himself about this wonderful journey from the drawing board to Himalayan road. Technically inclined riders will enjoy this video.
    Cheers!

    Siddharth lal absolutely nailed the team that they've got for RE now. From the engineers to media, everyone's absolutely elevated the brand to a another level.

      ​@@bigbearbangaloreSir ,I recently took a Himalayan 411 cc .from the day 1 ride the engine of the bike gets heated up ,and gives a bad smell of heat flames . Does this has any solution??
      The showrooms dealer said after 500kms driven ,and of 1st service it will sorted out...pls give me a correct note on it

      @@Parveez-xg5di same problem faced with My KTM ... this May be due to Oil leak over engine or poor coolant supply....( Radiator fiction) for my bike they said it is due to Oil heated over engine ( though little bit but enough to produce smell and heat. Better wash your bike thoroughly and clean the engine with brush might help... otherwise wait for first service.

    This is what I call a classy video. Brought back my engineering days memories. Bosky got none other than the Lead Engineer of the new 452cc engine. Anybody can talk about the bike's new looks and features. Bosky raised the bar and took the discussion to a much higher level. I love his technical bend of mind. Only a true rider/engineer would go to those details to know and love his machine. I say it again, this bike channel is world class level. I say this with full confidence with spending one-third my life in US working on cutting edge technology as an engineer. Hats off to Bosky Babu.

      Yep, if you watch a video from Triumph by comparison everything is super dumbed down. Hearing the engineer talk through the benefits of a dry sump for example highlights so many elements in engine design a common consumer wouldn't even think about - I wouldn't and I have an engineering degree!

      Using offset rear shocks and moving the battery and the air box seems to have created a narrower profile for the rider seat. The torque curve also seems really interesting. Would really love to ride this and see for myself. I would love to see a reduced NVH level for the engine.

    Great to know about the Engine directly from the Lead.
    Thank you Bosky for bringing this up for us.
    As an enthusiast it is great to know about this engine which is now as per the industry standards. Few things I liked about the engine is:
    1. It has good torque in even low range, so gear shift is not much or a concern as well as the engine stalling.
    2. This is using direct action camshafts, so no frequent tappet adjustment, only once in 10K kms.
    3. Cruising should be stressful now and overtaking in 5th gear should be more fun and confident.

    Big news on the valve check interval, it's now much closer to what you'd expect from a Japanese bike. I would perhaps have asked what efforts have been made with regards to ease of access to the air filter. In the 411 you just needed to pop off the side panel, with the 450 potentially having to remove the tank is a more significant undertaking, if Enfield has integrated some kind of "lifted tank" position that a lot of Hondas have for example that would be great.

My only complaint was the highway speeds. It sounds like this bike rectified that situation and I am now totally excited for the 452 to come to Argentina! It could well be the last bike I ever need through my retirement years.
