Last weekend I got a chance to ride the very same Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 which I owned previously for a few hours. The ride was awesome. Do I miss her? Do I regret selling? Watch the video. . #interceptor650 #cb350
What do I mean by practicality ? Tubeless tires, Comfortable Posture, Better suspension, Light Handling, More mileage (and tank range), More functional display with lot of info, Hazard lights, LED headlamp, Charging port 😊
Every time when I ride interceptor I feel like the king of the road. It makes it presence felt. Honda is much more refined machine but Interceptor's abnocsious engine is unparalleled
If you think Honda CB 350 is more refined than Interceptor, you haven't either ridden the Interceptor or the CB 350. Honda bikes are more refined than Royal Enfield bikes but INT is way more refined than H350
So difficult to make a decision. They don't sell cb350 in Italy. Considering interceptor used or classic 350 new. The problem with classic 350 is the power, going up with a passenger I think could be a problem if you do 100-200 km trips unless you run at lower speeds like 80km/h.
100% agree to all the points. I rode both for 1 whole day to make a decision and ended up chosing interceptor..hness is easier to handle, more comfortable, its much more practical..puncture in an interceptor is a pain. Forget puncture shop, Even the RSA guys struggle to fit the wheel back. To fix the tube back into the wheel, the local puncture guys will manhandle your rims..you will observe rusting in multiple prts of the bike, clutch wire would have burned off by touching the header pipes. So many issues... But the riding feel is unmatched. When you are off the bike you might feel that the interceptor is not worth the pain but when you are on it, its bloody brilliant
For Puncture, it is a advised to fill in tyre sealant, you will not face any issues. I have been riding for many kms, i haven't faced any such issues so for on 650.
I did test ride cb 350 but I think there is none to hear from the engine sound only the exhaust, but on interceptor there are some engine sound in high revs. Yeah but at last I better trust you, since you own them and for me just a short hard test for cb.
What I'm trying to say is about the refinement. I feel honda cb 350 engine is more refined than interceptor 650. This is just how I felt, eventhough honda is single. I feel it is too refined. But well, better to believe who own both the motor cycles
Bro please help me out, I'm confused bw the classic 350 & INT, both are within my budget. The only thing that I didn't like about the INT was the riding triangle(rear set foot pegs, slightly forward stance) whereas the classic was like sitting on a sofa. I'm getting a bike only for long distances, can INT match the classic when it comes to riding comfort? I won't be riding above 100kmph. [Pls don't recommend Honda, it has to be a RE this time, I already own a Japanese(Fazer 150)].
Between classic 350 and int, I would recommend the classic for comfortable touring, the bullet 350 which is going to be launched within a week would be even more comfortable if you are tall, or else you can wait for shotgun 650 which would hopefully be released within a quarter or two, which is expected to solve all the ergonomic problems of the interceptor
@@GodsOwnRider Thanks for the reply man, I'm definitely waiting for the new bullet, I thought the bullet & classic have identical riding triangles, is the bullet even more comfortable than the classic? Due to better seat or different handlebars or footpegs position? Also like with the UCE they used to say bullet has a heavier crank, do you think the crank size would be the same in classic reborn & the new bullet?
The bullet has a larger frame than the classic, so you sit higher and the posture is more relaxed, the seat is definitely better, i had an electra - other than the vibrations the seat and posture were excellent compared to classic
Oh Man... Few months before ur video on selling ur interceptor 650 for a CB 350 kept me away from booking interceptor for a couple of months. Again I made up my mind as I am a big fan of Bonneville motorcycles which I cannot afford ended up in Interceptor and booked it. Now whet it is about to arrive.... Ur another video...
@@GodsOwnRider yha thats meteor 650 ..but that forward set footpegs are an issue while offroading... thats why that 650 engine on classic chassis make more sense
Wonder why everytime you have run out of word so soon. So soon!! While your every sentence has so much interesting facts. Make more videos and talk more please sir.
No it does not. The heat management is very good. The engine and the pipes do get very hot, but in most normal conditions you won't feel the heat on legs or thighs. May be in heavy traffic some amount will be felt. .
@@GodsOwnRider alright thanks. I'm confused between a hness and an interceptor. The Honda is known for its refinement and modern features but the interceptor is just a beauty.
@@r.m7921 Yes, the purpose and appeal of both these bikes are different. Each has its own reasons to like it, but you can't have all. Fix your requirement first and then you should be able to choose. For me I wanted to do 400-500km day trips with comfortable ergonomics, without worrying about puncture and with good tank range. Hondas engine is very well refined for a single cylinder. So fix.your need first. Write out the 3 most important things which you need on a new motorcycle and then pick one accordingly 👍
Thanks for asking bro 😍 Stopped with lockdown which started in May. Weekend lockdown is still there and it has also started raining heavily . .Hope to ride again soon 🙌
@@GodsOwnRider enthayalum ariyana aalayathkond vandine miss cheyyonnum illa le 😁 pakshe aa bike um venam tto edaki chodhich nok bro frnd alle tharaandirikilla 🥰🥰
So if I don't want to be practical, I want a Machine which gives me pleasure of riding whether it is a high way or in a moderate traffic condition, what should one buy ? It is very difficult to maintain both the bikes, so choosing one is must 😀
@@GodsOwnRider hahaha ! It is very true that no bike is perfect. the one u choose, u may loss some good thing of other. I ride Interceptor and when see CB 350 on the road , I think I should own one and at the same time, I guarantee the guy on the CB 350 thinks same about my bike ....Lol 😂😂😂
@@theridingsoul1639 That's so true . .You can't have everything (or you end up buying one from each class). .Some sacrifices have to be made . .Motorcycles have so much personal character which differentiates them much from each other, unlike cars . .
And I appreciate yours too for believing everyone would make the same choices as you do . .If you don't understand it's a small life, get what you like, it's not about the brand or the number of cylinders or anything . .It's about what makes you smile the most ..And for me that's this, if you hate it I understand..🙂🙏
