For you intrepid Himi types, you might enjoy the YouTube channel "Nomad Brad" at https://youtube.com/user/bradbailey701.

Brad's one of those DoorDash food delivery drivers down in Texas who gets it done astride a Himalayan. He just sort of recently popped up on my YouTube shorts feed, and I find I really enjoy his cheerful stuff and thought I should pass it along.

Now that I think on it, doing a bit of DoorDashing might be a fine way to afford a nice new bike and even make a few bucks besides. I know a lot of folks have done similar gigs with Uber or Lyft chiefly to get a car out of it. I believe they may even offer some programs for vehicle purchase, though I have no details on that, good or bad.
So badass my Enfield's actually illegal  in India. Yet it squeaks by here in Virginia.

Thanks for the heads up! I'm in Fort Worth, Texas and do Doordash/Uber Eats in my regular car.

Would love to put around town on the Scram, I'll have to check out his channel and see how he deals with multiple drinks/larger orders!

I found this food carrier on Amazon and ordered it: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01ICNT5HA/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Now, I just need to work out a stable rack on the bike to support it.
