The footage appears to have been shared via the rider himself, where viewers quickly pointed out the rider's disregard for safety rules.

After a while, he turns around to make a gesture to the camera.

Netizens wasted no time in condemning the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 rider. Comments flooded in, with many labelling the behaviour as "reckless" and a poor reflection on motorcycle enthusiasts. One user remarked, "Zero civic sense." Meanwhile, another group of social media users appreciated the rider and the stunt he performed with his motorcycle.

The backlash underscores a growing frustration with thrill-seekers prioritising social media fame over public safety, especially with high-end bikes like the Himalayan 450, known for its off-road prowess rather than urban daredevilry.

Authorities in similar cases, such as a Thar SUV stunt in Uttar Pradesh, have seized vehicles and issued warnings. Police urge riders to stick to designated lanes, particularly on highways where dividers prevent head-on collisions.

This incident serves as a stark reminder of a need to focus on road safety amid the rising two-wheeler sales in India. The Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, launched with advanced features for rugged terrains, deserves better handling than such misuse.
