SW-MOTECH Offers Full Range of Accessories for the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450

We may not all pronounce "Himalayan" the same, but most riders do agree that the Royal Enfield Himalayan has established itself as one of the best values in the adventure motorcycle market. The second generation of the Himalayan, with its water-cooled 450cc engine, has addressed the Achille's heel of its 411cc predecessor by adding true freeway capability. A host of other upgrades have been included with the all-new bike such as improved suspension, electronics, a six-speed gearbox and a TFT display.

Being no stranger to the Himalayan, SW-MOTECH has already fitted up a host of offerings for the new 450 including their signature aluminum TRAX ADV cases for the first time, along with a full range of other luggage, protection and ergonomic products.

More Luggage Options: DUSC and SysBag WP

The new SW-MOTECH DUSC hard cases are a perfect match for the new Himalayan, both visually and functionally. Its panels are made from robust 3D-textured ABS material and then wrapped in a sturdy aluminum perimeter frame. The result is a tough, dimensionally stable and lightweight case. DUSC cases are extremely versatile, suitable for touring, commuting or more adventurous off-road duty. They can also be used interchangeably as a side case or top case.

As a soft adventure luggage option, the waterproof SysBag WP L Side Bags are also compatible with the new Himmy and offer full ADV styling and waterproof functionality. Each system attaches with the same PRO Carrier system, which is also completely removable in seconds.

On or Off-Road Safety

From engine to handlebars, SW-MOTECH has the protection to make sure the adventure doesn't end early due to a critical component failure. One of their newest protection products are handguards, available in either the Sport or Adventure models. Both variants feature a robust two-point attachment.

Axle crash pads on the front mitigate damage to the fork in a slide. Crash bars supplement the factory upper guards and protect the new radiator. The engine guard (aka skid plate) protects the underside and lower front of the Himalayan. SW-MOTECH protection components are made from premium materials produced in their state-of-the-art European factory.

Comfort and Safety

SW-MOTECH also offers several accessories for the new Royal Enfield that improve safety and ergonomics. ION footrests and the foot brake lever extension improve riding comfort, particularly useful when riding off-road. Mirror relocation mounts improve your view to the rear.

Adding SW-MOTECH EVO auxiliary lighting, available as a complete kit for fog lights or high beams, will dispel all worries about seeing or being seen—even when the weather takes a turn for the worse. A kickstand foot extension will help keep the Himmy upright when leaned over in the soft stuff, especially until Royal Enfield can offer a longer kickstand.
