How I learned to stop worrying and love the Royal Enfield Himalayan: An Australian on a Himalayan

You can spend months researching, trying to find out if the Royal Enfield Himalayan is a good motorcycle, or you can ditch the spec sheet and get out and ride. Is it a good motorcycle? Yes.
Is it a good motorcycle for you? That depends on you and what you want to do.

Come with me on a typical ride in my local area. I bought the Himalayan to do rides like this and it's perfect for me. If you like riding like this, then there's a good chance it will be a good fit for you too.

We head north from Port Macquarie NSW Australia to Kempsey, then to Stuarts Point and then up into the Yarriabini National Park for Spanish tortilla for lunch at the Pines Picnic Area. It's a beautiful spot and feels like deep rainforest even though we aren't that far away. The dirt roads are good, with just enough challenge from the recent rainfall to make them interesting, and we cross a few flowing creeks.

I had some technical issues with the camera this time, with the audio not recorded for several clips and a few missing clips. I admit the latter may have been my clumsy handling of the GoPro! I also learned to be aware of the light and remove the ND filter when it gets dark. And it got very dark under the rainforest canopy even though it was a beautiful sunny day so some of the footage is a bit grainy. I'm learning all the time.

Most footage is shot with a GoPro Hero 10 with Telesin ND filters. Drone is a Mavic Air (the first one). And some supplementary footage is shot with my iPhone 12 mini. All shot in 4K and I don't do any colour correction.
