440 Hima coming?

You never know with these shady advertisement driven sites. But if true I hope they keep the old instrument panel

yeah i heard this news from a service center guy today, i assumed he was just making an estimate guess based on scram 440. but i saw on insta too

I guess the scram 440 is still the better choice, if only for the alloy wheels. Flat tires in the middle of nowhere are no fun unless you have tubeless.

Only thing I care is the six speed for relieving the engine when highway riding on the plains.

Of course western countries will never see this bike sold anyway...

... so all my hopes lie in the great guys here that are working their way into 411 six speed conversions using the Scram 440 available spare parts.

the biggest problem right now even for us in india is sourcing the parts, the delays are huge. i have almost all the parts except for gear shaft assembly. I m planning to make a detailed video once i get around finding a good mechanic who can help me install these parts

A bit of news: it will not be sold outside India - and comes with spoke wheels (which I personally do not like). My dealer expects it in his showroom in early October. I will have a look but as of now I still think the Scram is the better choice, if only for the tubeless tyres (anyone with a flat in the middle of nowhere will agree).

Adventurous souls with deep pockets and a love for their Himis could, theoretically, buy all the parts from India and put them on an old Himi 411 frame. I am pretty sure with minimal mods it will fit. the only thing not 440 then would be the frame and the wheels (too big to ship and the same anyway). It might even be cheaper than what a 440 Hima new in their country would cost if it was available.
Of course this can only be done by buying a complete bike in India and stripping it down - shipping everything leaving only the frame and wheels behind. I would guess the costs including disassembly over here, packing, shipping and the bike itself no more than 4000-4500 Euros.
In Germany the 411 Scram new sits at 4990.- Euros showroom price.
