Originally launched in 2016, the affordable adventure motorcycle has been updated over the years. And there are now taller and tinted screens for the Royal Enfield Himalayan from Skidmarx to fit the current E5 generation of the bike in 2022.
You still get a 411cc single cylinder four stroke putting out a relaxed 24.3bhp. But the suspension and 220mm ground clearance means you should be able to keep going whatever the conditions. Which is where aftermarket screens can be helpful, as noise and buffeting can be seriously tiring. As well as irritating.
So along with the Standard Skidmarx screen for the Himalayan, there are two higher options, with all made from 4mm acrylic and available in your choice of clear, light grey and dark grey tintes.
The Tall screen adds 80mm, which might not seem like much. But it can make a big difference to the airflow, allowing it to pass over you rather than in your face. And if that’s not quite enough, there’s the Super Tall, which adds 130mm over the standard item. Which will be welcome by the most mountainous riders. as it also offers more protection from the wind and rain.
The Skidmarx screens are all designed and manufactured in the UK, and fit directly onto the existing mounting points, using the original fasteners. So they’re also an easy option if you’re replacing damaged original equipment, or want to cut down glare when you’re riding.
The Skidmarx Standard and Tall screens for the Royal Enfield Himalayan E5 models both cost £74.95 in clear, light grey or dark tints. The Super Tall screen will cost you £89.95.
