I ride this strom in mountain terrains oh man what a bike he climb like a champ. Himalayan 450 is my first bike the major problem is it's have noises in the engine after 300km i show this to showroom they said it's a common issue. But the engine sound is annoying and another problem is oil leakage what the hell going to my new Himalayan. Himalayan is not good offroad i for sure there is no doubt you feel rough on offroad no smoothness. Then i decided to resale and then buy suzuki v strom no words it's a offroad champion no oil leakage, no annoying sounds, it's smooth on offroad we can't feel you're going on off road the suspension is so smooth.

It's very comfortable with on road as well off road trip, good pick up, milage, All parts and components are perfectly tune hence give fabulous performance even ride for continuously 14 hr for 800 km. It's perfect
