Thanks for the update Krat! Its good to hear that RE is continually trying to perfect this bike. I went and saw the Himalayan in person for the first time a few weeks back at a local dealer who also had a 310gs. The owner said his techs cringe when someone brings one in for service, and that the RE is a much higher quality product.
It is a bit heavy compared to my 250, but I have read numerous times that the center of gravity lies very low on the Himalayan. I am a believer in that now... Climbing on the bike and and rolling around the showroom it felt very easy to lean and maneuver.. easier than my SSR probably. I wasn't dressed for a test ride, but will be going back soon.
