Dutch GS pilot sold Beemer and bought Himi...

[Eddy the Mad]

Hi folks, after long consideration i sold my GS to the dealer and bought this dubbel-black beauty instead! The 1150 Williams was getting heavy to handle, besides... this young black thing makes me smile
I have to wait for the dealer to prep her and install some accessoires and get her licenced... in a few weeks time i can pick her up! Please dont tel her parents she's dating an old fart

Most Adventure bikes have never appealed to me in the looks department, but Royal Enfield has somehow managed to make a very handsome Adventure bike. Kudos to them.

It's one of the many reasons I was drawn to the Himalayan.

Welcome Eddy.
Great looking bike.
What accessories are you getting ? Post pics of your bike with the accessories when you get it.
cheers.

Welcome Eddy to this forum. I also sold my BMW F650. The Himmy makes a much better dirt bike and it also handles better on the road. It doesn’t have as much power but that makes it a better off road bike and it has enough power on the pavement for me as-well. It is also much easier and cheaper for me to maintain.

Thanks for the warm welcome, when i notist i used the GS less and less becouse it was becoming a hassle it was time for me to make a change. On the accessoires front, i will start out slowly with only a Givi engineguard / RE handguards / RE heelguard and look at the luggage options at a later point in time.
Cheers,
Ed
