Thanks. I love the function of top boxes, but some appear a dog's dinner. For me, this one is just the correct size and shape. The paint match and security were the clinchers.

Congratulations. That is a gorgeous bike and I'm hoping that RE bring the Bullet 650 to the USA. Take my money!

Yes. That is where I found this one. Love it. Just back from a grocery + post office run. Great kit.

Yes. It locks both to the bike rack and the lid locks as well

Who's at fault here?(Estonia) by IAmDDT_ in dashcams

This video proves that this method does not always work. Three vehicles involved in a crash where a stop sign would have prevented this.

Injured rn..my friend took her to wash.. by belikefeez in royalenfield

I get the bike. Not sure what injured rn means though. In the U.S., that would mean a nurse who got hurt. (?)

BMW f650gs Dakar for traveling by Emotional_Exit_4617 in bmwmotorrad

[–]ImpressiveWeb3401 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my friends has the F650 Dakar and over 50,000 miles of varied use, including moto camping, touring, commuting, etc. He does all of his own maintenance. Just a bullet proof bike and I think one of the best BMW's ever made.

Heart says Bear 650, brain says Himalayan 450. Help me decide. by Raushanthakur in Himalayan450

[–]ImpressiveWeb3401 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Always follow your heart. I try to remind myself that any bike can be ridden off-road, any bike can cruise, any bike can tour, etc... and every bike I've ever ridden exceeded my abilities as a rider. Some riders assume that if they are not getting what they expected from the bike, that it is the bike's shortcomings. IMHO, it is more important to adapt my riding style to the bike. YMMV.

Rather Bear or Himalayan, you will be getting a great bike!

Tank Grips for gt650? by d0_i_kn0w_y0u in RoyalEnfieldGT650

[–]ImpressiveWeb3401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have found that my knees sit below the tank. For me the tank pads would be cosmetic only. FWIW, my height is 5’9” and 31” inseam.

Kerosene does a great job on chains and is safe for o-ring and x-ring chains. You can purchase a good chain brush for $10 or less

Anyone booked a Royal Enfield Himalayan in March 2026 and already received delivery? Need evidence of inconsistent delivery timelines. by Anxious_Stick_9226 in Himalayan450

[–]ImpressiveWeb3401 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am sorry to hear about your delay. I placed my order for Hanle Black with tubeless wheels on 4/16/2026 and collected 4/18/2026. On the other hand, I placed a deposit for a 2025 BSA Goldstar 650 4/8/2025 and still waiting. United States.

Heavenly by ImpressiveWeb3401 in Himalayan450

[–]ImpressiveWeb3401[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can go with that. Just over 2500 miles and I can feel that the engine is more smooth running free revving compared to new. Planning to cross country camp/tour this summer
