[S1- Eps. 5] CHAIN MAINTENANCE of a Royal Enfield Himalayan
EDITORIAL SUMMARY
This short Season 1 episode follows a ride through Bihar as part of the India-to-Europe journey. Alongside the route, it takes up a practical task: the first chain adjustment on the 2018 Royal Enfield Himalayan.
About this film
Travel and routine motorcycle care share the focus here. The Himalayan is described as performing well, while the episode introduces the need to keep a chain correctly tensioned and shows the first time its chain is tightened. That maintenance detail sits within an ongoing ride rather than taking the film away from the journey. The setting also brings the route into a region associated with significant historic and religious sites.
The journey
After an overnight stay in Bodhgaya, the ride continues towards Vaishali, in Bihar, around 55 kilometres north of Patna. The route passes through Nalanda, though the plan there does not work out. Vaishali is noted for its ruins, while Bodhgaya is connected with the story of Prince Siddharta reaching enlightenment and becoming Buddha. The episode links these places through a day’s ride and a brief piece of Himalayan upkeep.
What to expect
- A Bihar ride from Bodhgaya towards Vaishali
- A passage through Nalanda and a plan that changes
- The first chain tightening on a 2018 Royal Enfield Himalayan
