I have an interceptor but tbh i have always had my eye on a big engine scrambler someday (ducati/triumph) or the speed twin. How would rate the feel of this and yout int650?
The Triumph is a lot more lopey, like a cruiser, the gears are looong. Twist the throttle and there’s a lag before the power comes, it’s not as direct with its ride by wire, unlike the cable throttle Interceptor. So the Interceptor is more engaging to ride except on more open roads, IMHO. Heat is pretty bad in this climate especially with that high exhaust, and it’s a big heavy bike. Interceptor more practical in that sense. That said, it’s a big step up for build quality, it has 10x better brakes, and you have offroad ABS mode. It’s so smooth, the transmission is awesome and makes the INT’s feel ancient. For Philippine riding the Interceptor makes way more sense. The Bonneville though is just such a looker and rides like a perfect modern bike but with a more retro gurgly-sounding engine.
@@Ride_XP Nice. Di talaga nagbago isip since the last vid. ;) I'm really impressed with the Int for you and so many others to love it so much. So... Int + T7?
Aaron ...just loved the video and the scenic beauty you captured. I am waiting for your Himalayan trip next episodes. You just posted 1 episode. Please post more on ur leh journey . Love from India .
Sir Aaron, totoo ba na mainit ung tambutcho nya and not tolerable especially with the traffic here in the philippines? That's one of my dream first big bike.
Medyo yan ang naexperience ko. Gabi pa yung naramdaman ko sobrang init sa traffic, what more sa araw? Lalo na raised yung pipe. So mas pang-long ride ko siya marerecommend :)
Hi! We use mesh communication intercoms in our helmets. Here in the Philippines, Cardo is the preferred brand, either their established Packtalk or new Edge models.

Very stunning!
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow the moon rising looks so surreal
I love riding during the magic hour, that full moon though. Stunning.
Yes!! The best feeling.
Thanks for watching! Let me know if you have any questions about the Triumph Scrambler 900 for a future comparison with the Interceptor!
Ako, I'll ask the main question: Wallet willing, would you make the switch to that?
@@hisnameisrentoo Nope. Hehe. For me perfect combo INT + a midsize ADV

@@Ride_XP thank you for your response, I think that bike is not for me haha.
You seem to talk to someone . How do you guys communicate with helmets on . ?
