Royal Enfield was kind enough to lend me a brand new Himalayan 450 for a long term test and review and today we're putting it to the test with an eventful Himalayan 450 off road ride.
Big thanks to @MotoCampNerd for sponsoring today's video and providing me with some awesome Klim riding gear to test out. Check out the world's best selection of motocamping gear at http://www.motocampnerd.com/?ref=dork

Thanks to a recent windstorm, my day of Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 off roading started with clearing branches from a downed tree so that I could get through. Afterward, I headed to the local trails and did some Himalayan 450 singletrack riding. From there, it was on to some more traditional ATV trails and I finished the day by riding the RE Himalayan 450 off road to a local mountaintop where the view was kind of bad because of the weather...but the gravel road riding to get there was fantastic.
