We have details and photos of Gary Birtwistle's Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 racer in our STORIES section.
We also have these details on the spec (or as much of it as Royal Enfield are willing to share).
This from a Royal Enfield insider, 'The bike feels inbetween a Rotax framer and a DTX bike (which makes sense as we took elements of his C&J Rotax and his Husky to find the current geometry), with the power characteristic of a big single and the lower centre of gravity of a framer, but has the stance and ergonomics of a DTX bike. Gary is able to find traction in a different way to a DTX bike.'
