The Royal Enfield Himalayan spotted here rides on spoked wheels, and seems to offer on-and-off road type tyres. It sports a disc brake at either end, mounts for jerry cans on either side of the fuel tank, a swing-arm and monoshock suspension, a decently-sized windshield, a front splash guard, and black-and-silver panniers with black-painted mounts.

Some reports state that the Himalayan will be offered in two variants - a City and Off-road model. The City variant would get alloy wheels while missing out on the mounts for jerry cans and extended carriers.
