2017 Bikesales Bike of the Year Awards: Best LAMS Adventure
Winner Winner, Chicken Dinner! The Royal Enfield Himalayan was announced as the 2017 Bikesales Bike of the Year Awards: Best LAMS Adventure bike!
As Bikesales say:
“The $6990 rideaway Himalayan was intended to be a simple, pure and basic motorcycle that will take you almost anywhere you want to go for as long as you want to go there. There are no bells or whistles: it’s just an honest little motorcycle that’s up for anything. It’s powered by an oil and air-cooled 411cc long-stroke SOHC engine, it’s carburetor-fed and squeezes out almost 25hp (18kW) and 32Nm of torque which is transferred to the rear wheel by a five-speed gearbox. The engine’s flexible, the brakes are excellent, the suspension is serviceable, and there’s plenty of feedback at both ends. It’s a motorcycle with old-school trailbike charm that has the courage to go where ever you’ve got the gall to point it.”
They pretty much confirmed exactly how we feel about it… the Royal Enfield Himalayan is a favorite of ours!
