FYI it’s Accessory no.6.

Added few more photos just to give you context. I’m an introvert, solo camper learning leather craft. Want to build unique and beautiful accessories for my machine.

Took my Himalayan off road for the first time today and I finally get why people are obsessed with it.

This was not some easy trail. Proper stuff with rocks, loose gravel, uneven climbs and sections where I had no clue what I was doing for a second. But somehow that is what made it so fun. You actually have to focus, trust the bike and just go for it.

What made it even better was the group. A bunch of Himalayan riders, most of us doing trails for the first time. My friend even brought his Classic 350 and still managed to do the whole trail on his first try. That honestly made the whole thing even more memorable.

It felt raw and a little unpredictable in a good way. Way different from normal road riding. You are not just cruising, you are actually riding.

Came back tired, a bit dusty and fully hooked.

This was my boyfriend's first bike and then the bike I learned on. I since got a V-Strom but the little Enfield still has so much charm!

Excited to own my first RE!

I’m planning to buy a Classic 350 and confused between Emerald Green and Stealth Black.

I personally like Emerald Green more because it stands out, while Stealth Black feels too common on the road.

But I’m concerned about tubed vs tubeless tyres since I don’t have much experience with bikes. How much difference does it actually make in daily life?

Is it worth choosing Emerald Green and sacrificing tubeless tyres?

Would love some real owner experiences. Thanks in advance 🙏

Dude sometimes in my Hunter 350, Idling becomes lower than usual but doesnt turn off, it just stays low, It is 4852kms driven, 6 months old, well maintained, but im not understanding why this is happening, it doesnt happen every time, Now till now it happend 2 times, once in hot sunny day, and one time in morning just after rain stopped

Any reviews for the Sherpa 450 engine used in the Himalayan in a long run? Someone who has completed around 20k kms. I'm considering buying a Himalayan as my second bike purely for offloading travel.

I want to know the performance drop if any, maintenance required, breakdowns, or any red flags in general.

Thanks in advance

Maybe I should use a decat pipe and then install a centre stand from INT 650. If you guys have something better to suggest please help.

Got my first bike today classic 350 stealth black

Do you think i should get this stump guard for meteor 350 instead of original, this one is 1100₹ inc shipping and original is like 3200₹. Its just a aluminium plate what possible difference could it have.

This is a late post. I had gone to the service center since the headlight was broken from the inside from a minor accident in the past. May be this caused electric issues where light goes in upper even though the switch is in the dipper. And was causing battery drain.

I went to Palladium mira road service center for new headlight enquiry and a few months old Exide battery died there when I was leaving. The representative said they will check where the electricity leak is and also charge the battery. Asked for 2 days time.

Now the issues start. 2 days ETA took 1 week, they asked for 2 days more every time. Finally went to collect, they didn't close the side panel and lost the extension of the side panel. Later found it on the exhaust pipe. So the 1st gift melted my side panel. Wires point was not screwed to battery properly, I had to inspect the fitting myself and all bolts worked on were loose. I made them fix it. They did not check for any leakage of electricity l. All Juggad Fix as usual in this country.

I found that the upper dipper light issue is still there. So asked to replace the headlight and more 2 days now. Paid nearly rs 4K for new halogen headlight and they did the fitting. Now 2nd Gift they scratched my side yellow panel which I put new for rs 850 each few months back. And later seen a minor negligible spot dent on the tank.

Again a few bolts were loose. I reached my home and tightened all the bolts myself.

My private amateur mechanic does a better job then trained professionals at the service center.

To summarise: Battery recharge and headlight replacement work at Palladium Mira Road service center. Horrible work, loose bolts to fix it myself. Melted the side fiber panel, scratched another panel and did a minor negligible dent.

I own a canyon red int650 and plan to change the foot pegs/foot controls.

Currently my bike is mostly stock, only the pipe has been replaced atm.

Are the TEC ones good - see 2nd picture? Or do you have other suggestions?

This is showing up on Acko and Tata AIG website when looking up interceptor. Currently was shopping for the Interceptor. Was informed by a store that Barcelona Blue has been discontinued from 1 April. So maybe 650 colour refresh and 750 launch around the corner.

The company has kept this under the wraps pretty well. Waiting for the announcements to pull the trigger. Currently holding on.

so i bought my classic 350 during jan 2025, and since I have multiple vehicles at my home I drive the bike very less . during my 3rd service in January this year, I only had 1000kms on my bike and the workshop guys told me that I need to change my air filter and engine oil. he gave a quotation of some big amount I don't remember.

But I told him not to change the air filter as I had not rode the bike a lot. i mean as far as i know by the 3rd service people ride upto 15,000 kms so I didn't think it was necessary at that time. what ended up happening is my job cost sheet was literally zero because the guy said we can only do other things with the air filter change. he only washed my bike and nothing else , didn't even change the engine oil.

my 4th free service is coming in June, what should I do about the air filter. one of my friends suggested me to buy a air filter from outside and then get it installed, i heard brand names like engage, bmc or something. what would you guys suggest I do. this is my first bike and I'm a beginner rider. would appreciate suggestions regarding this or any other things, spark plugs etc.

Recently booked classic 350 , there is difference in royal enfield app and price quoted by dealer .I am going to confront the dealer tomorrow anyone has idea regarding the same.The main difference is between the insurance and I have cancelled the EW and rsa still they are added in royal enfield app . Should I be concerned regarding this
