Royal Enfield Revives Himalayan Simplicity With New 440cc Adventure Bike
Royal Enfield has introduced a new adventure motorcycle called the Himalayan 440.
It is meant to bring back the simple feel of the older Himalayan 411.
Some riders liked the older bike because it was calm and easy to use on difficult roads.
The newer Himalayan 450 is faster and has more technology, but it costs more than Rs 3 lakh.
The Himalayan 440 uses a simpler air/oil-cooled engine and basic digital-analogue instruments.
Its 443cc engine makes 25.4 bhp and 34 Nm of torque.
It also gets useful updates such as a six-speed gearbox, better brakes, LED lighting, and navigation.
The bike costs Rs 2.29 lakh ex-showroom, making it a less expensive choice for adventure riders.
Royal Enfield launched the Himalayan 440 in India at Rs 2.29 lakh ex-showroom.
The motorcycle responds to riders who missed the original Himalayan 411’s simpler, low-stress character.
Its 443cc air/oil-cooled engine produces 25.4 bhp and 34 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm.
The Himalayan 440 adds a six-speed gearbox, updated chassis, larger front brake pistons, LED lighting, and Google-powered Tripper navigation.
Priced below the Himalayan 450, the 440 targets budget-conscious adventure riders seeking simpler mechanics.
