Pros Cons of BMW 850 GS

Pros

Cons

Verdict

The BMW 850 GS has a comfortable and capable suspension to do countless miles on any kind of surface and terrain. It is the best off-roader of the three, considering its agility advantage over the GS Adventure, and it's just about big and loud enough to give you the feeling that you are indeed riding a big bike.  Its pricing also undercuts many of its direct rivals, which is why it makes for a strong contender for anyone looking for a middleweight adventure bike.

Pros Cons Royal Enfield Himalayan

Pros

  • Versatile budget ADV motorcycle
  • Good Ride quality
  • Hardy motorcycle

Cons

  • Engine lacks power for seasoned riders
  • Could have been lighter
  • Brakes could have been better

Verdict

The Royal Enfield Himalayan definitely is a good bike, and the more time you spend time with it, the more you begin appreciating it. Sure, it has its weaknesses, and more power, less weight, better brakes et al, would have worked wonders to make it even better. But eventually, what matters is that it's a simple motorcycle that will charm you with its simplicity, whether you're the city commuter, relaxed highway cruiser, or trudging along broken trails.
