Indian motorcycle manufacturer, Royal Enfield has announced the opening of two new service centres in Himachal Pradesh, which the company mentions will cater to the thousands of RE riders travelling to Leh as well as the surrounding regions. These two new service centres will be located at Kaza and Keylong. The company, with these two service centres, now has a total of 13 service centres in the state and 943 located across the country.

The company states, building better accessibility for riding enthusiasts has been an important cornerstone in Royal Enfield's expansion strategy. Quicker and better access to the world of pure motorcycling, including product, service and spares is an important aspect, and the launch of the two new service centres in Kaza and Keylong is in line with this strategy. Royal Enfield has established network of dealerships across India, including remote locations in Ladakh and rest of Jammu & Kashmir, Arunachal Pradesh and Sikkim among others.

Shaji Koshy, Head, India+ Business, Royal Enfield, commented, "The Himalayas has been the spiritual home to Royal Enfield, and for over 60 years, riding enthusiasts have traversed these mountains on our motorcycles. Over the last few years, we have seen an increase in the number of people riding to the Himalayas on Royal Enfields. With the expansion of our service network in Himachal Pradesh at Kaza and Keylong, we have ensured that riders get adequate support even at high altitudes and challenging terrains. With places like Leh, Ladakh, Lahaul-Spiti getting featured on every rider's bucket list, these service centres will cater to riders travelling to Leh region from any of the two routes - via Manali or Shimla."

Both the service centres offer full-service facilities with over four service bays and a crew of fully trained and authorised Royal Enfield service personnel, thereby providing support to all the riders on this route, further expanding Royal Enfield's presence in the region.
