Royal Enfield Scram 411 – Review in the Dunes

foreign [Music] hello this is the Royal Enfield Himalayan ah [ __ ] sorry retake hello this is the Royal Enfield scram 411. it's a scrambler thank you [Music] sure it's mechanically identical to the Avenger bike but never mind that's look at all those colors so today is not a day for adventure it's a day for scrambling 1951 British Racers get pissed on pints and bet who can win from A to B no track no particular route just a melee of bikes zigzagging whichever roads or sheep pastures they choose I say quite describe it is broken out so these are the Oregon dunes and traditional wisdom goes duning with something like the CR500 maximum horsepower minimum weight paddle tire so not a Royal Enfield then 24 malnourished horses 430 pounds well never mind that it's a beautiful color it's a beautiful day this is a scramble and the ocean is three kilometers that way go go go [Music] [Music] [Applause] uh-oh talcum powder reminds me why I hate Scramblers Ducatis is based on the monster Yamahas is a bolt and the Triumph is a bastardized Bonneville the vit pill and made the fart pill in the rebel 500 made the CL500 and the r9t made the r9t see they're all street bikes with bigger Wheels which is needlessly shitty ask a farmer to build a unicorn and he won't start by putting stilts on the donkey just go to your stable full of horses and stick a freaking horn up [Music] that's where the Enfield is Unstoppable it's the only Scrambler that is actually an adventure bike which is a no-brainer since Adventure bikes are actually scramblers minus the Nostalgia see how it slows but never stops she makes her greatest torque at agricultural speed because the ls410 was born an off-road engine LS for long stroke long stroke for prioritizing torque and idle sure there's half the peak power of its Rivals but Enfield makes more power under 4000 RPM which is where the stuck man needs it oh of course once you're out it remains John Deere slow but never mind that look at all those colors [Music] [ __ ] [Music] damn it ugh there are three solutions to the hill climb first find more grip second use an abundance of power if there's no abundance of power then most Dangerously carry momentum wow the risk in hitting a hill at speed is that when I slap the incline bottom the skid plate generally a terrible idea on scramblers since their street bike frames use the engine as lowest hanging fruit that's called a stressed member which is also the name of my sex tape but remember this Enfield is ascended from a proper off-roader so it has dual cradle framed rails which should take the abuse Theory [Music] now this is one of those moments we only want to shoot once it risks catastrophic damage to a press bike so fortnite mounts the insta 360 X3 and sponsor this video cdx3 takes everything so we can reframe if the mount shifts on impact and with 360 degrees of footage we can grab clips for YouTube or Instagram or Tick Tock if something viral happens like the engine falling out those aspect ratios can be selected in app all from the same physical setup using insta360's mounting bundle click the link below for the smartest way to film your dumb [ __ ] now let's see how mine pans out oh you're such a popular platform it lands surprisingly bad it's like Joe Rogan's stand up never mind that look at all those colors nah I wasn't worried this engine's only two steps removed from a mortar and pestle it has air cooling fins and two screw type valves Helen Keller could do the maintenance herself though there is a lot of it an air cooling allows for more temperature expansion more shavings in your oil and a big old screw valve wanders off faster than my father I'm only kidding he's the one who taught me to yank in ABS fuse basically Enfield gives us an easy job that must be done every 5 000 clicks over an expensive job every fifteen thousand its accessibility over exceptionality but never mind that look at all those colors [Music] [Music] another reason I hate scramblers is that they're too pretty to drop but remember this one is actually an ADV it's stylish panels are actually cover-ups for the old tank guards huh bolted right to the frame stuff and it's a rare frame too Harrah's performance chose Square Tubing which no one does because it's weaker [Music] foreign broke Trail the embarrassing way but they learned to have this Frame robotically welded now we've got something that won't snap in half anymore and is also really special [Music] heel of square tubing is that it can be drilled and bolted a frame in two parts that lower cradle protects the engine yes but the whole assembly also bolts to the upper tube like a stressed member I have the shield of a dual cradle with the arrow likely of a sport bike [Applause] of course doubled up Square beams are heavier than a two-shelled turtle come on but never mind about that just look at all those colors [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] as fast as any Scrambler you could buy for three times the price because this one is sensibly built on an adventure bike however the Himalayan has to be the worst adventure bike money can buy it's so slow it's so heavy it's not particularly good looking it has a dodgy record of build quality and it's not that Honda crfs in the world but look to the street bikes masquerading as scramblers this is not catastrophically heavy it's not that slow off-road it's based on the newer more reliable Himalayan and it's better looking and somehow cheaper five grand which is way cheaper than the so-called scramblers from huskaprada bmd ore and daguchi I would sensibly choose the scram 411. if only because it's the small fish in a fake pond of course a Scrambler would never mind that and they just look at all those colors and raise a pint to a beautiful day thank you very much for watching and thanks to insta360 for sponsoring this video If you happen to want a camera click in the link below we'll comp a motorcycle mounting bundle
