Which KTM 390 Adventure SW is better for long-distance touring than the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450?
15 January 2025 06:56
That really depends on what kind of touring you do. But if you’re mostly on paved roads and like to ride fast, the KTM is better. If you’re more into mixed terrain and a more laid-back pace, then go with the Himalayan.
As long-distance tourers, what sets the KTM 390 Adventure apart from the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450?
13 January 2025 06:40
I've set up camp on both, and honestly, after touring on them both, I have more confidence in the KTM's more advanced electronics (like traction control and cornering ABS), especially in bad weather.
Can the Himalayan 450’s extra weight cancel out its advantage in power for off road?
09 January 2025 10:50
It's a trade off, but it's a good trade off. Even with the extra weight the 450 feels more capable overall. It has more grunt to power through obstacles that would have bogged the 411 down and the power delivery is smoother as well. Additionally, most of us aren’t taking our adventure bikes to the extreme off road anyway – the 450 is plenty for the average adventure rider.
Has Royal Enfield lost the Himalayan 450’s reliability and simplicity for performance?
09 January 2025 10:50
I think RE has definitely paid some performance for simplicity on the 450. Liquid cooling and electronics are great for power and efficiency, but they’re also more points of failure. I’m concerned about how it will stand up on long, remote trips where you’re not going to be able to just pop into a dealer and have it fixed.
Is the Himalayan 450 an adventure bike still, or has it turned into a road tourer?
09 January 2025 10:50
I think RE has attempted to make the 450 more approachable, and in doing so, it's become less pure adventure. The bike is great, but it doesn’t feel like a hardcore off-roader, more like a competitor to something like the Versys X 300. That’s not necessarily bad, just different from what the original concept was.
Is the Himalayan 450 worth its price bump over the previous model with new features and performance?
09 January 2025 10:50
But you have to think about what you get for that price hike. It’s not a bumped up 411, it’s an entirely new bike. Feature for feature, it's still a bargain when you compare it to other adventure bikes. I think RE had to raise the price to make all these improvements and I think they've hit a good balance.
Is the Himalayan 450 truly an upgrade over 411 or just a different bike?
09 January 2025 10:50
In most ways I'd say it's an upgrade. The 450 answers a lot of the complaints people had about the 411 - more power, better brakes, and better build quality. It is a little heavier, but that extra grunt makes up for it. This is still a capable off road vehicle, it’s just more versatile for longer highway rides.
