The Royal Enfield Himalayan 750 is the most premium and adventure touring motorcycle ever made for the terrain India actually has- not the highways, but the 200km stretches of ambiguity in between. Here are top trips to plan with RE Himalayan 750 -
The Manali–Leh Highway- CLASSIC HIGH-ALTITUDE ROUTE
India's most iconic motorcycle corridor- 479 km of passes above 5,000m, river crossings, and some of the most dramatic scenery on earth. The 750's low-end torque shines at Baralacha La (4,890m) and Tanglang La (5,359m). Leh Ladakh Motorbike Trip remains open from May to September only.
The living root bridges of Cherrapunji, Dzükou Valley trails, and the Indo-Myanmar border corridor. Comparatively little traffic, real off-road sections, and an entirely different cultural landscape.
The Deccan Plateau to Kerala Coast - MIXED TERRAIN, ALL SEASON
From the Hampi boulder fields through the Western Ghats down to Kerala's backwaters. Smooth highways punctuated by unmaintained forest sections- a great introduction to Indian riding for those new to the subcontinent. The 750 handles both modes with ease.
