The Evolution of the Himalayan Series
A substantial step up from the original Himalayan 411cc, which quickly gained a cult following among those who like to go off-piste on two wheels feature. The first Himalayan had won hearts with its affordability and simplicity but it was underpowered and left riders asking for more. That’s where the 748cc parallel twin engine Himalayan 750 steps in with a more rugged and adventurous slant.
Engine & Performance: Torque-Rich Powerhouse
Powering this machine is a 748cc parallel-twin engine producing 47 PS of power and 52.3 Nm torque. This makes it a well-suited machine for off-road enthusiasts who need accuracy and control over challenging terrains with that much torque available at lower RPMs.
The Royal Enfield Himalayan 750 would provide an unruffled trip on multiple terrains, and top speed can be seen somewhere around 160 km/h. In terms of maximum power output that we expect from the Himalayan 750, there are many more for which you can consider it, right from tight trails to nationwide highways, in all stages reaping peak-like torque.
Rugged, Adventure-Ready Design
Aimed for adventure enthusiasts, it has big spoked wheels, a tall windscreen, and off-road-friendly knobbly tires that will comfortably glide through dirt, gravel, or even sand. With a large ride height, you will not have to worry about anything happening.

Bive by has already seen the bike in patents and in person, but as far as a tech on offer, the Himalayan 750 manages to mix Royal Enfield with a classic touch with some much more modern pieces of gear. For better low-light visibility, the full LED lighting system gives it a clean and contemporary look.
And that’s one segment where the Himalayan 750 will simply be unchallenged. It might not come with fancy electronics like traction control or anything, but it is excellent in the practicality middling. For the diesels, it’s a bulletproof option for those who like their adventures low-tech.
Off-Road Capabilities: Built for Exploration
The Royal Enfield Himalayan 750 is for rough country. The off-road suspension and knobby tires are great for taking the road less traveled, especially in mud, gravel, or dirt. Their wheel-spokes are robust and specially chosen to withstand the hardest of conditions, which is why a rubber man loves them for all his Land Rover off-road riding.
