I would love to ride the Himalayas on a RE. I may have to try and tie it in with one of my future trips to India.
Did you watch any of the videos on that link?
Truly one of the best bike ads I've ever seen, thanks. Actually appears to BE THERE without fakery.
Royal Enfield Himalayan Motorcycle - The Himalayan is here.
.... the long-stroke engine retains Royal Enfield’s character with torque from 2250rpm and a maximum of 32Nm. The overhead cam also allows the bike to have usable power up to 6500 revs and 20kW of power.

Banned Himalayan may be good for Aussies - Motorbike Writer
The Himalayan is powered by an all-new 411cc LS400 long-stroke, single-cylinder, overhead-cam, oil-cooled, counterbalanced, blacked-out engine with 10,000km service intervals.
The 182kg bike has long-travel suspension, 220mm clearance and a 21-inch front wheel, yet an accessible seat height of 800mm.
It features conventional forks, single front disc, single headlight, slim indicators, streamlined mirrors, cable clutch and twin instrument pods with comprehensive information.
Brakes are a 300mm front disc with a two-piston floating caliper and a 240mm rear disc with single piston caliper.
It will come with a wide range of accessories including hard and soft luggage, jerry can holders and, for the first time on a production bike, racks for pannier bags on the front.
It will be available in black or white.
