Great review and totally honest.
I've had my Himalayan since 1 April this year - it wasn't even an April fool's gag! Up to now I concur with all you've said. I'm a similar height to yourself and a "big" lad and it's really comfortable for me. I part ex'd an 18 month old 500 EFI Bullet - the Himalayan is (in my opinion) in a different league. Someone described the looks as the biking equivalent to a Series 1 Land Rover, a fair comparison. I suppose it's a bit "Marmite" but I quite like its quirky looks.
My only gripe was a dodgy compass but this has now decided to work, so happy days! What value, it costs less than the average smartphone per month. Nuff said.
