Technically the Himalayan Sleet continues with the same specs getting power from the 411 cc single-cylinder, fuel-injected engine that produces 24 bhp at 6500 rpm and 32 Nm of peak torque at 4500 rpm. The motorcycle comes with a long-travel suspension setup, while braking performance includes disc brakes at the front and rear. The adventure motorcycle rides on a 21-inch spoke wheel at the front and an 18-inch wheel at the rear, both of which get dual-purpose tyres.

Commenting on the launch of Himalayan Sleet and the Explorer Kit Mr. Rudratej (Rudy) Singh, President, Royal Enfield, said, “The new Himalayan Sleet is inspired by the terrain of Royal Enfield’s spiritual home – the Himalayas, its craggy land, the gorges, edgy peaks all brought together in the colours of the sleet . Additionally, the first 500 owners will get pre-fitted Explorer Kits to help kick-start their personal expeditions on the Himalayan Sleet”

The price difference between the regular Himalayan and the Sleet Edition is around Rs. 28,000. But then that’s worth it as you get OEM quality explorer kit and a neat looking Camouflage paint scheme in the bargain.
