Will the Royal Enfield Sherpa 350 be a true rival to the Himalayan, as its off-road potential suggests, or is it all talk?
With the arrival of the Royal Enfield Sherpa 350, the company's lineup has started a discussion about where this new offering fits in, especially in comparison to the company's tried and tested Himalayan. While some riders see a lighter and more accessible adventure bike as a good thing, arguing that not everyone needs the full capabilities of the Himalayan for light off road use, others are excited about the prospect of a more versatile road bike. Some are skeptical though – they think the Sherpa 350 is more of a styling exercise than a serious off road contender. This debate also includes whether the 350cc engine is powerful enough to get you through true adventure riding, and whether the bike’s suspension and frame is capable of handling rough terrain. Also, how might Himalayan sales be affected, and potentially Royal Enfield is cannibalizing its own market?
The Sherpa 350 won't be a true Himalayan competitor, I doubt. It’s probably more a soft roader for light trails and gravel roads. Not everybody needs a full on ADV bike.
