Royal Enfield
Himalayan 450
Royal Enfield's Himalayan 450 is the most fully featured entry-ADV at $5,999 new — a 452cc single with built-in GPS navigation on a round TFT display, 21/17 spoked wheels, and strong off-road capability at a price no Japanese competitor matches. Traction control is absent by design; the single-cylinder engine is capable but not fast at highway speeds.
