Expert's Conclusion

To our surprise, the Interceptor 650 felt more like a 90’s Honda and less like a Royal Enfield, given its refinement levels and performance. The engine feels amazing with loads of torque on offer and a nice sound from its twin exhausts. Overall quality is quite good and the motorcycle feels like it is built to last. This can easily be called the best Royal Enfield bike out there.

I have been riding the interceptor

I have been riding the interceptor since 2+ years now.It's an awesome bike with the power that is enough for a new bee to cruise or to overtake any vehicles you want to on the highways.2 things that i dislike are the frequency of disk pads change and the less mileage it offers.

One of the best bike to travel

4.2

One of the best bike to travel couple with luggage, Low end torque is a boon at mid rpm as one can effortlessly cruise in higher gear or climb ghats a gear higher without much fight.Its a forgiving bike on the throttle as the power is linear and gradual.If to nitpick, Tube type tyre is a pain if its punctured rsa is the only saviour during those times.And softer front suspension needs constant adjustment when cornering.But as a bike man it can munch miles making travel ever enjoyable.Happy riding riders.Cheers.
