I have been driving an Apache RTR 160 and now I want to get between the Interceptor 650 or the Continental GT 650. I have to commute 30km per day and this would be my first bigger engine experience. Which should I go for?

After riding an Apache RTR 160 it will be easy to ride the Interceptor 650 which will be more comfortable than the Continental for your 30kms daily commute.Why I am saying because I ride my Interceptor to office in heavy traffic.Hope this helps! Happy riding!

For daily commute, I would suggest interceptor 650 due to riding ergonomics. GT 650 has a bit sportier riding position which may not be very comfortable for a daily 30KM ride. I have been using my Interceptor 650 for daily commute and its very comfortable and quite powerful.

I suggest you test ride both and decide. For older riders, the interceptor works better. GT has a very committed riding posture.

@ Uppiliappan | Both are same in terms of performance. INT 650 has upright riding position. GT 650 has a bend riding position in corners & Curves it handles well. For long term usage INT 650 is the best choice
