Everyone Wants A Royal Enfield Himalayan 650, So This Shop Built One

Have you been waiting eagerly for Royal Enfield to build that long-rumored Himalayan 650? So have we, but so far, there’s been no word. While we’ll keep holding out hope that those dreams will one day come true, at least one shop apparently got tired of waiting, so it made its own. Cooperb Motorcycles is a British shop, located in the East Midlands—and it built this extremely tasty-looking Royal Enfield Interlayan 650. 

Imagine the capability, suspension, and posture of a Himalayan, only with that 650 Twin powerplant in place of the Himalayan’s stock 411cc single. Actually, we probably don’t even have to suggest that to you, because so many enthusiasts worldwide have been clamoring for Enfield to do something like this for so long. It’s not that the Himalayan isn’t a great bike, it’s more like a parent-teacher meeting where a kid isn’t quite living up to their potential. Only, you know, the kid in this case is a bike, and you know it could be absolutely amazing with just a bit more effort.
