The Royal Enfield Himalayan is an Indian Adventure Touring motorcycle manufactured by Royal Enfield. It was revealed in February 2015 and launched in early 2016. Pierre Terblanche led the design team during Himalayan's development. As of 2025, this motorcycle has two distinct variants, the original 411 cc machine and a modernized 452 cc revamped offering. Both are branded and marketed as the 'Himalayan', but in truth the two machines share no common components but do share a similar target market.
