ROYAL ENFIELD INTERCEPTOR 650 PROS & CONS | ACCESSORIES WALKAROUND 

I got my intercepter 650 today ☮️☮️☮️

Useful review. Have done 8000kms in last 6 months on this & trust me it's a very versatile machine - real joy on the high way & also great fun in the hills. It can even do some mild offroading & found no issues at an altitude of 15k feet during my recent ride to Arunachal... approx highway mileage is 28 to 32 kmpl & in city it gives around 20 to 23kmpl.

First of all Raj thanks for speaking in 2 languages and excellent review 😊😊👍👍🇬🇧

Nice review mate, the RE twins just got announced in Brazil's motorcycle event yesterday, it's way cheaper then triumph's classics available here. I'm very excited to drive those bikes, regards from Brazil.

I am not a bike rider but the way Raj was explaining his bike, kept me interested in understanding what all was done. I really liked how simply and nicely you explained. Keep it up buddy! More power to you. Cheers.

Yakuza is looking fantastic mate - great update. Safe riding!

You explain better than anyone else out there. Your pros and cons hit me like a sine wave

Dude...you sound so down to earth like a true biker.... don't ever change your style of presenting. If no-one has told you yet..you have crossed the mark from amatuer to pro reviewer. Keep this up and you have great places to go

I think you made all the valid points, this might be a bit overwhelming for city only rides and if you are coming from a 150-200CC. Give it some time and accept its character, it is quite FUN. That's what this bike is in one word.

Yes please! We need those cleaning tips. ♥️

I had one last summer rode 1800 miles. Easy to ride, easy to live with and excellent engine. Pure motorcycling but a little expensive in Europe retails for 8000 USD and no discount. Well. Let’s see what RE does next with this great engine. Seriously, it’s all about THIS engine.

very beautiful, I will work to buy one, hugs from Brazil

I never watched any moto video form start to end. But urs is the first. That was a good explanation.

Thanks for the video! Good looking bike. Living in Scotland, I'd say "it heats itself up" is a pro not a con!! :D

Hi Raj, Enjoyed this video. Thanks! Please put up a video around the cleaning kit - would really be helpful to us cleanliness fanatics!

Hey Raj! That was a great walk-around video. I am also a fellow Interceptor rider and have been a big fan of your videos. I too have the same issue with the fuel indicator, it's COMPLETELY inaccurate. I did inform the service centre but no positive response so far. Let me know if there is a common forum where I can put this forward and get Royal Enfield to actually pay attention. And hey, why not a video on the soft update that has been done on the Interceptor since September 2019. Minor but still may seem cool. Keep up the good job and keep riding!

Yes I really like your Tank thigh guard.

Whatever camera setup you are using right now. It's dope

I've bought my new interceptor and I really need those cleaning tips you talking about so please!❤🤘🏻

A heartiest thanks 🙏 to you my dear brother from the very depths of my heart for giving us this awesome information about one of my beloved classic interceptor 650 twin. Your feedback is quite informative and honest and very very useful for all the bike lovers. I am also a proud owner of interceptor 650 twin in custom ravishing red colour and believe me the bike looks stunning and I am really in love with my beloved bike and I mostly ride my bike on weekends especially Sunday mornings. May god almighty always blesses you with health wealth and prosperity and happiness and a healthy life full of love and blessings and guffaws of laughter. A millions and millions of tons of love and blessings from Punjab especially Amritsar city. Please do keep up the good work.

The accessories make the bike look very beautiful, tastefully done! Kudos!

That's a great video Raj. Subscribed immediately! Looking for more tips on the interceptor. Is it also true that the exported version of this motorcycle has better fit and finish?

dude i ordered the Pair Motorcycle Cafe Gas Fuel Oil Tank Pad i was searching for this since the 1st day i bought my bike

Nice selection of extras Raj ... you have good taste in picking good bits for the bike. Royal Enfield should be employing you as a product development manager (or some other credentials).

Non experienced or non R E owners only say this engine geting hot.this is twin and i ride harley street rod only in 3 km that burn like bhatti.

Bro, Just love the way u approach the viewers ✌️♥️ "Which camera do u use?"

Finnal y my prayers are answered bhai...thanks a ton..

You really mentain your bike well. I like it. Superb accessories collection you have on your bike. The way it looks simple is the best. I love re intercepter 650 cc. It is my dream bike now. I want to have it in future. I love the simplicity of bike it looks. I own rtr200 and 160...the old one.

1st viewer and 1st liker💥❤️

Congratulations on 130k subscribers

Yes yes yes , we want the cleaning kit video .

Brother i want 2 kno ur height, and do u feel comfrtable with interceptor in manuvering traffic..

Check the fuel on flat groud when statonary at lights or parked up with the bike in total upright position. A booster plug may help cool the motor as they run lean from factory. I believe the gear shift leaver, Brake leaver would be better cast metal intead of flat plate. I believe adjustable clutch leavers would be a favored modification like the Triumph Bonnevilles have. A more free flowing exahust is also a good mod to go with the booster plug. The lower scratch plate is a very good idea as well as the crash bars. The wind screen is a good mod as well. I put an O-ring chain on as well.

Hey, did you feel unwanted noise front front suspension while driving through poor roads

Ok,as you would expect, I didn't understand everything you said but I think I got the gist of it ! I really enjoyed this and thanks for sharing. When I get mine I'd like to able to have the use of GPS as I drive a lot in London and it's easy to get lost! Any ideas?

How is the electriacal quality .. is the wiring harness insulated ???

My interceptor’s indicators were bent when delivered.... its the black rubber part which was bent.... is there any way i can only get that part new instead of the whole indicator?.....

Really lovely description of intercepter 650 And you bro so handsome & your voice is good... Am biggest fan of Royal Enfield bike...

Good vid. Thank you.

Hello mate, have you had any squealing brake issue on the bike? My rear brake is squealing like a whistle when I brake softly say when I'm approaching a traffic signal. The front brake also squeals but not as much as the rear. Any ideas on DIY brake cleaning? Cheers.

Beautifully curated review..Thank u

Yes bro . Give us some information on which products to use in order to keep the bike clean , how do u clean the bike personally and about the cleaning kit which u have mentioned in this video . Pls do make a video on this ... Thank u bro ur yasuka and u are awesome yarr❤❤

Loved your presentation and coverage, I am booking one for my son soon. Very useful and exhaustive review. What are the minimum mods which we should look at ?

Good one Raj. I rarely like bike reviews. I have owned 5 bullets in last 38 years. Thinking of an interceptor now. Wondering if I shud yet buy myself another Buller or this. Let's connect. Best...

Great video Raj !!! Can you please make a video on fuel injection specifically. Way to costly. Standard 500.

Friend, in the catalogue at Saharaseats, exactly what color brown is that? It looks much darker than the browns in their online catalogue, but still lighter than black.

Pivot Risers for the handle bar is certainly a must for the interceptor,it was the first thing i noticed when taking a test drive at the worli showroom.Silencers are quite high up and will certainly be an agni pariksha for the pillion passenger.A key defect i have noticed in the interceptor has been that its been too "leanly" tuned,the AFR certainly needs to be made richer and that will immediately result in a much cooler running engine.(one can use a piggy back like powertronic that will surely sort this issue and increase power or a cheaper solution is just get a remap done from the company if possible) I wish this bike was a 750 straight from the start instead of a 600 cc.

Hey Raj! Great video as usual... can u tell me lil more about mobile holder? Purchase link would be great.

Aapko phli baar dekha bhut accha lga bro

Nice video, and modifications too. About heating, the bikes compared here have liquid cooled engines. This is a retro motorcycle with a air and oil cooled engine. The exterior of the engine is designed to have more surface area, through which the air flows absorbing the heat and cooling the engine. The hot air rider feels is part of the normal cooling mechanism and not a defect :) this is less apparent in liquid cooled engines. Unlike modern, performance oriented bikes which go up to 10K or more RPM, Retro motorcycles with big displacement usually don't require liquid cooling because they mostly work on lower RPM. Also air cooled engine looks more retro.

You should make the video about cleaning, washing n maintenance of the bike. We're waiting for the it.

Hello Raj I bought my R.E. Int 650 last year as soon as they were available here in USA. I have the same color as you and like your mods a lot. How can I get my seat recovered like you. It looks fantastic.

Quality information...and interceptor looks dope

The Best Ownership Review On internet today. Very well sorted and narrated. I am sailing in 2 boats today. Really loved Interceptor/Continental however, I have never been an RE Fan because of obvious stories of painful ownership. However, these new breeds are a diff story I think. How would you stack this against say a used Triumph Street Twin? Some call Interceptor a 'Garrebo Ka Bonnie' :P . It may not be a fair comparison but I am longing to get a classic ride since forever. What would be your take on that ? Also, I am a Weekend and occasional long distance rider. But how is the pillion comfort? That is something I am very keen to know while making up my mind. I think stock seats are pretty bad. Thumbs Up for the review and Ride Safe Brother.

Wow. Your video quality is so good bro. Awesome. Loved it. Vlogging style is improved alot bro. Loving it. As always cheers bro🙌🏻✌🏻👍🏻

I'm in Oklahoma, USA. I have riding Harley 883L for 12 years. The VTwin heats up real good. It is air cooled and muscle bike. So dont worry about heat. I use 20W-50 oil.

Bro, can we use the stock seat for long ride and is it worth buying touring seat from royal enfield or should I check after market seats. But the price comes near by the original one. Pls replay

Nice. Appreciate for useful information about Interceptor bike Regards

Not surprised with the instrument cluster not working!! it stopped working on my TB after 1 month

Great review Mate thanks India

Kya heating problem bs6 model me solve ho jayegi

Very nice and informative video... Thank u

Good job done on the bike. The best are the thigh tank pads.

Hi brother . I need your suggestion that i have a classic 350 ( signal edition ) & i want to upgrade it to interceptor 650 . Is it better or not ????

Hello Raj, big fan. Had a question. Do you observe handle wobbling in your interceptor above 40-45mph, after you lift your hand from the handle. I am facing the issue and would be great if you could help me sort it out as by service centre is unable to resolve it and i am tired of writing and following up with them

Talking about the shocks it's on the softer side so not that great for cornering how about installing the ohlins suspention kit for the interseptor..?

Honestly waiting for this.. thanx alot ✌

Hi, I wasn’t able to find the customized radiator grill anywhere unfortunately. Could you please help us with their contact?

you are doing well man. nice video

Classic 350 or intersepter 650 which is better because I ride somthing 50 km per day and Ill go for a riding log trip so I asked question sir kya better hoga mere liye intersepter ya 350

Thanks for honest review.

Very nice extras, but how / where can l find out about buying these pieces. I live in W Australia

Hi, can you share some new motorcycle break-in tips, please? Planning to buy 1200CC Triumph Speed Twin, need some tips to break in.

Very useful review Sirji…. I am planning to buy an Interceptor 650. Moving from KTM 390. So was really skeptical about it but your review clarified most of my doubts. Thanks. And yes, loved your Yakuza. Cheers!! Would like to understand more if which are the best suited tyres for this bike.

About cons it looks very generous... Thank u fr ur info😊😊😊

Hey Raj...any idea if these are worth buying? Lowered Pillion Footrest For RE Interceptor 650 - Hepco & Becker

Love your review.Youve got a good looking bike there.....

bro cant find touring seat in the official site,are the touring seats really available? and different from stock?

Very informative video buddy 👍

Thanks Man!! Got the seat cover from Sahara seats for my Orange crush..the owner helped me customize the seat stitching with orange thread and it's a perfect match for my baby..the delivery was thru FedEx and lightning fast like in 24hrs from Hyd to Chennai p.s.. also ordered those tank grips yet to get them ...used ur disc code Thanks.

Minute but detailed modifications which has indeed kept the bike's look intact. (y)

Just love it, l now have a sidecar fitted. Wow, what fun.

Confused between HD 750 street and this ......which one to chose ? ...limited city ride and mostly on freeways

I want to ask a query, is this bike also best for individuals who are of 5.5 or 5.5 foots particularly

I dont hav bike....but never missed ur videos...

Really practical customizations

The biggest Con is Lack of Tubeless tyres in the 650twins.

Bro, fuel gauge and front forks are issues i am facing too with my GT650, Some time the feedback is so bad that i feel either tyre is flat or suspension got a seal break. Lets figure out some bug this to RE ears, so that we can get them fixed.

Tank me jo rabar lagai hai aapne o bohat good achi lag rhi hai use pe good job

These bikes have rear brake fail problem. I’m suffering with my Continental GT 650 rear disc brake failure. Even after changing the callipers and master cylinder.

can you please share some info about the waist bag youy are wearing

Many reviews complain about the position of the foot pegs, rider and pillion. And also uncomfortable seats when riding for more than an hour. How do youself find these?

Hi Raj I have been riding my Interceptor daily to Office Malad Mindspace from Naigaon Vasai. Trust me engine performance very good, Heating problem is manageble, pick up on top gear while over taking is amazing. Only problem is the tube got puncture and to my surprise the puncture is tube was due to heating of tube and there was no nail sticking in or other kind of damage to tyre. Strange but such puncture in tube faced first time in life. I have been riding bike since school days but never seen such puncture in tube.

Great video. Perfect Information.

Even I got a burn on my left leg while I was a pillion riding from Bangalore to Krishnagiri Dam in Tamil Nadu. When I got down I completely forgot that this bike has another silencer on the left side as well, I took off from office for good 23 days recovering from the burn. I so wanted to buy this bike, however I changed my mind after that incident. I do not want anybody to suffer like me.

Wow, beautiful bike , thanks for video 🙏

Yup how’s the headlights? Night rides?

Hi Raj , I have the same color as yours ,I need to get your expert opinion that coming from a 350 re ,I was not absolutely blown away by it's performance in first gear , I get to a speed of 35 -40 and feel the speed somewhat stagnatung , so feel no point in pushing further rpms in first gear. .is it the same in your case or do you get 50 -60 km/hr in first gear .other gears really make the bike ride such a mind-blowing experience and that's where it shines ..I am asking my doubt about the first gear range just because I saw some RU-vidrs push it 70km/hr in first gear and thus my expectations were raised. What's your realistic feedback on first gear range in normal riding conditions ?

I also want the yakooza radiator guard bro can u plz say from where can I get it

I'm planning to buy continental gt650 what do you think about it? Can i really not tour and dard hone lg jayega?
