HI ya - we are putting together another tour to the Himalayas - let us know if you want to join - it will be our 5th year of tours up to the mountains of India. Check out Cape Town Royal Enfield for details.
Royal Enfield Cape Town also run these tours every year. One should make 100% sure you deal with a reputable operator - and nothing beats having a local SA company organising it all on your behalf.
You can get some more info on www.thruxtonmc.co.za and some good reading at www.himalayamotorbiketour.wordpress.com
Tour departs the 27th of June. Great times !
Price is about R20K for tour and add flights of about R14K - everything included except booze.
Or send your email and I can forward...
I hope anyone can help!

It's not the bike that's the main issue - it's the sidecar and baggage and passenger that will prevent the increase in speed. the Enfield should cruise easily at 110/120kmph but the sidecar, although great fun and very versatile, take the cruising speed down to 90/100kmph.
How's the handling...
