Royal Enfield Himalayan vs Triumph Tiger 850 Sport Comparison

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.

The new Tiger 850 Sport is positioned as an entry-level offering in the Tiger line-up and is the brand’s most affordable adventurer tourer. It is targeted at first-time ADV buyers and tourers looking for more road-biased mannerisms and easy ride-ability over a fully-blown off-road motorcycle. Compared to the Tiger 900, the new 850 Sport is about Rs. 1.75 lakh cheaper, while sharing most of its underpinnings with the Tiger 900 including the frame, engine, and electronics to an extent.
