Himalayan 450

There is no predictable journey in the Himalayas. There was no one machine designed for this journey. Until now. The all-new Himalayan built by the Himalayas. A motorcycle with a strong adventure lineage yet remains true to our philosophy of pure motorcycling. The all-new Himalayan retains the capability, versatility and the ability to go anywhere your adventure takes you. Nothing you don’t need and everything that you do for the changing times.  #AllRoadsNoRoads
The Shotgun 650 is LAMS Approved

The new mountain standard.

A motorcycle with strong adventure lineage yet remains true to our philosophy of pure motorcycling. The all-new Himalayan retains the capability, versatility and the ability to go anywhere your adventure takes you. Nothing you don’t need and everything that you do for the changing times.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED. NOTHING YOU DON’T.

Ride-by-wire with four riding modes so you can tune the response to suit the terrain and your mood, while in the background the bike delivers smooth fuelling and better fuel economy. Joystick control of the easy-to-use Tripper Dash® lets you control music, calls and messages without your hand leaving the bar and the world’s first full-map navigation on a circular display built with Google Maps Platform.

FITS LIKE AN ADVENTURE GLOVE

The best chassis is the one you don’t notice. From the versatile 21” front 17” rear wheel combination to the large enduro footpegs and wide handlebars, the Himalayan works with you in all situations on or off-road. The slim seat and tank let you get your feet firmly on the ground when you stop, while increased ground clearance and longer travel suspension let you choose the roughest tracks.

HEART OF THE MOUNTAIN G.O.A.T – SHERPA 450

Like the high-altitude Sherpa that inspired it, this engine has the torque to pull you out of a sandy hollow at 5,000 meters above sea level while being able to enjoy the 5-day trip back home afterwards. Compact, lightweight and delivers 40hp through its new 6-speed gearbox and with slipper clutch.

CAPABLE. RELIABLE. FUNCTIONAL.

Quality suspension lets you keep the bike on the line you’ve chosen over the roughest terrain and that’s exactly what you get from the inverted Showa cartridge fork. The steel twin-spar frame is stronger, stiffer and narrower between the legs for improved comfort while riding in a standing position. Adjustable two-piece seat to keep both rider (825 mm) and pillion (845 mm) comfortable, along with an optional low seat (805 mm) to keep your feet on the ground at any altitude.

Chassis
The steel twin-spar frame is stronger, stiffer and narrower between the legs for improved comfort while riding in a standing position. Better handling, better stability and better balance.
Ride by Wire with Rider Modes
Ride-by-wire with four riding modes so you can tune the response to suit the terrain and your mood, while in the background the bike delivers smooth fuelling and better fuel economy.
Water Wading
Engines and water don’t mix. But adventure and river crossings go hand-in-hand so we developed the Himalayan with a high up air intake under the tank to keep you rolling when the rivers are running high.
Seat Height
Nobody wants to stop riding because they’re saddle sore. So the new Himalayan features an adjustable two-piece seat to keep both rider and pillion comfortable, along with an optional low seat to keep your feet on the ground at any altitude.

WHAT A JOURNEY!

Decades of expeditions. Thousands of kilometres of traversing the most challenging terrain. Years of living and evolving with a machine that responds to all that is thrown at it. That is how we made the Himalayan, our first dual-purpose motorcycle.
