    Can I put alloy wheels on Himalayan?

    If your primary purpose is just city rides and local driving, you could do this. But if you want the pure soul of Himalayan to stay as it is, then have the spoke wheels as it is or you can replace spoke wheels with high quality alloy wheels that are being offered in KTM 390 or BMW G310, which would cost more.
