Re: The Royal Enfield Himalayan ,great value.

Re: The Royal Enfield Himalayan ,great value.

The one doing the bike show rounds is the one that has been doing the rounds of all the bike shows. Going by the number of punters climbing all over it I would be suprised if things aren't working properly.
