Royal Enfield Himalayan Sleet Specifications
Other than the introduction of a new colour scheme and touring accessorie, there will be absolutely no change in the motorcycle. Hence, both the specifications and the mileage will remain the same. The RE Himalayan comes with a 410cc single-cylinder engine that outputs a max. power of 24.5 BHP and a peak torque of 32 Nm. This all-new motor has been developed entirely in-house by Royal Enfield and is said to be equipped with a counter-balancer shaft to keep NVH levels in check. Being an adventure motorcycle, the Himalayan gets long-travel telescopic forks at front and a monoshock suspension at the rear, which is yet another first for a Royal Enfield. The 410cc adventure tourer rides on 21-inch wheels and gets disc brakes at both ends.
