Himalayan not for South Africa, yet

The Himalyan LS410
After Royal Enfield last year bought the UK-based Harris Performance, the English company designed the frame of the new Himalyan LS410, a dual purpose bike making 32 Nm at 4 000 rpm from the over-stroked 411 cc single-cylinder engine, which gives the 182 kg bike all the grunt it needs for easy city and cross country riding.
Royal Enfield claims a range of 450 km from the 15 litre tank and will start selling the bike for under R70k in India. There are no plans, yet, to export to South Africa.
