As I can’t speak Indian, what is the cure for the wobble? My Interceptor only does it when you close the throttle and decelerate from 60mph to around 50mph and only in certain gears. I think it’s actually caused by a vibration harmonic.
Interceptor is more of a street fun bike than a tourer. For long distance touring Himalayan works better practically because of it's comfort n luggage carrying capacity. Yes you won't get the power like interceptor but for long distances, it can easily manage an avg speed of 90-100.
Like i said....it's the overtaking at those speeds on the highway where one feels the lack of power...but that's not Himalayan's fault....it is 24-25bhp bike. And yes Interceptor isn't meant specifically for touring...but a little mods here-n-there and it has been serving that purpose really well for me.
I have hyundai verna 1.6 automatic diesel and mileage figures are almost same. Given diesel is a cheaper fuel cost of running interceptor are same as running a really good car. Thats something to consider. Bikes are supposed to be economical in running. But then interceptor is no ordinary man's bike.
Hi Neeraj...you said it right. If fuel economy is a primary concern then Interceptor should never be the choice for things like commuting. Something like Apache160 would stricke a good balance between good fuel economy and decent power for city traffic. My next upgrade would definitely be a tourer and if I can keep this one as well then I would make it look prettier and take off all the touring related accessories.
bhai sorry but cruising speed is easily 120kmph and you can do 130 too if the roads allow it and you have a good fly screen installed, secondly the top speed is easily 178-180kmph. Interceptor bs6 owner here.😊
The difference here between our opinions is in think... We have a different definition for the word 'easily'. Touring speed of 110-120 is something where the rider is also comfortable with the amount of windblast + the engine isn't running too hot which would end with a lower than usual fuel economy. You can ride INT-650 at 140 too all day long but that doesn't make it an 'ideal' touring speed for this bike. Top speed: I've ridden the BS-6 version as well as I have 2 friends who also own Interceptors (2 BS-IV & 1 BS-VI) and the easily achievable speed is 160 but stretching it out it does around 170ish... In my experience it didn't reach those speeds "easily".
Nice informative video ... I would like to add one more Tyre option which is Avon Roadrider and Trairider tyres which includes 130, 140, 150 section 18" rear and 100,110,120 section 18" front tyre. Love from Assam 🙏
Hi Joy...I have seen the picturs of these Avon tyres on the Internet but couldn't find any dealers for them in Delhi NCR.... Not sure from where we can get them and the price too... 🤔

I go for grocery shopping as well on my bike, and I've done commute to work plus the weekend and long rides on my Int. 390 just doesn't enjoy going at slow speeds and demands gear shifts....Int would happily chug along in third gear doing 25-30kmph... low down Torque take care of the rest.

And that's why coming back to your question....

My head says Dominar n heart says Interceptor. Dominar is better package than Interceptor. In City run Interceptor is a task. Interceptor is heavier than Dominar. Interceptor is less fuel efficient than dominar and I doubt if I shall drive Interceptor with my kid as pillion as raised exhaust touched his feet during test ride. All above factors blow off when I see Interceptor in canyon Red ❤
Agreed with all your points... Dominar is a well rounded package and covers most of the practical aspects whithout the need of any mods. I'll add one thing here though... Talking of positives of Interceptor - that engine is a gem...it's refinement, torque delivery and utter smoothness is something which obviously a single cylinder Dominar just cannot match. But practicality is something that Dominar really delivers in...plus it has got some decent power too.
Are you in any Interceptor what's app group? Would be much more convenient to connect with you. I have been following you from your very 1st video and recently got my Revishing Red INT. And yes i am again saying this, your voice is like Love Guru, so soothing..😁

@@TheTwinPost Last year I rode a Continental GT for half an hour and did the same thing. Now I own an Interceptor with repeated issue. Maybe the reason is changing gears too fast I'm afraid.
@@TheTwinPost by the way, she is in her soften up process (riding in 6th gear at 80 km/h, under 3.500 rpm) for at least 1.500-2.000 km and drinks only 3,58 lts/100 km of petrol. Very good machine at the moment.
wanna ask something related to tyres...we all know pirellis are far better than ceat but can we really have the fun with ceat and the confidence in corners with the latter tyres(ps: obviously after getting the tyre warm up and the engine too coz pirellis sportcomp that use to come before wasnt good if u dont warm up the tyres)
Hi Teko... I've ridden with these tyres on another bike as well.... The Jawa Perak... Perak also comes with Ceat Zoom Cruze tyres and I did 120-130+ speeds with them and they felt amazing on long sweeping curves....it felt like the tyres offered more but the bike was not capable of delivering more.... that's where Interceptor comes in...These tyres are perfectly fine for what Interceptor is capable of.... I can say that with what I've experienced.
@@TheTwinPost ok lets hope for the best like how u mention coz i have heard ceat cant replace the mighty pirellis so wanna just confirm from someone with some information.
Should I buy gears from Royal Enfield showroom? They're providing some discount? If yes which product, taking mid- budget in every gear.. Thankyou bhaiya ❤️
Hi there... Actually RE gears are pretty well made...a little on the expensive side but with discounts they are really good deal. I myself bought Military-brown gloves for daily riding and a black Windfarer riding jacket for my better half from (RE Citywalk Delhi)... I got a very good quality Duffle bag worth 2k free with the jacket (there was an offer). Quality is pretty good... Although the Armor is CE-1 ....but that's something you can upgrade I'm the future too....one can get a CE-2/3 level armour and install it. Windfar jacket costed me 7k (plus free Duffle bag worth 2k) and the daily riding gloves were for 2k which at discount were for 1.6k

Why tube tyre , RE sh have given tubeless, cheated customer, I was considering this bike I had almost brought it, now with heavy heart I am going for a 2nd thought . Rather I will go for 350, honda hness, classic 350 is like splendor or cd dawn now a days.
Sir, IskeExhuast jo hai vo bike ka look kharab kar dete hai to iske lie koi option hai? Aur agar puncture hua to bhi pareshani ho sakti hai to koi achha option batayie as I'm going to purchase Interceptor very soon.
Hi Krunal....agar stock exhausts ke look se aap khush nahi ho to market me bohot saare options available hain... AEW, Powerage, MotoWings, Gursevak etc. New Interceptor me ab Ceat ke tube tyres aate hain....to in tyres ke saath only option hai ki aap anti-puncture gel use karo....lekin agar aapko tubeless chahiye to aapko tyres change karvane padenge and then ya to alloy wheels ya fir Outex/Way2Speed tubeless conversion kit install karvana padega spoke rims par.
Handlebar riser, windscreen visor, seat customisation & pillion footpeg relocator kit (if you plan on doing tours with a pillion). Itna karlo agar to aapko long distance me bhi maza aega
Only thing I'm worried about on interceptor is punture issue as it is a tube tyre (on BS6 comes with Pirelli-stock)..so any solutions for that?😓 But I heard that Timsun is good for interceptor & it is also tubeless type so after installing Timsun I can use anti-punture kit for tubeless option....isn't it useful?
You are absolutely right.... Switching to a tubeless tyre and then getting the tubeless conversion kit installed would save you from some really tough situations. Timsuns have recieved decent reviews till now so you can definitely go for them.
@@TheTwinPost yah that's the only way to get rid off from punture issues😓I was planning for Dominar then switched to Int650..btw what is the best anti-puncture kit available in the market now...(*note- Budget is not an issue) btw one more thing I heard that Timsun rear size is 150section & front 120..is it true ? & If yes then any problem for upgrade?
Usually people go for Outex kit if budget isn't an issue...BUT Outex seems to fail alot more if it is not installed from someone who is an absolute expert at it.... (Bulu Biker's Outex kit on his Interceptor failed within 2 months of installation from Art of Motorcycles in Bangalore). I have been using the Way2Speed tubeless conversion kit for the past 7 months now and my experience has been phenomenal with it....no unusual psi loss... encountered a puncture during my long ride which took 2 minutes to fix. I got the kit installed from PathPavers in Delhi as it was suggested by the seller (Way2Speed) themselves... Satisfied with the product.
It's so so easy and cheap to covert a tubed rim to tubeless, I've done it on mine, all you need is some sealent for the spokes on the inside and tho it's optional some tape over that
It does heatup... But that is expected from a 650cc twin cylinder engine.... But not to an extent where I would feel the need to get off the bike (the way it does on the Harley)
Bro one doubt. Since these are spoke rims.. Fitting a RALCO tubeless.. Will it work?.. As RALCO is tubeless and bike has spoke rims how will it be air tight?
Hi Rahul... Fitting Ralco tubeless tyre would work along with a tube inside just like the original Pirelli tyres (which were also tubeless) came with tubes. I got the rims converted to tubeless that's why I'm able to use the Ralco tyres without tubes. I've covered this topic in one the video...you can check it out if required: ua-cam.com/video/TK-Qvu69XPo/v-deo.html
@@TheTwinPost I'll go through the video.. I'm new here so didn't know that it's already been covered.. Thank you taking the time to reply. Really appreciate it. I'm clueless about many things right now as I am going to book the bike in 3 to 4 days and wanted to know things about it.. The do's and don't's and probable issues.. That's how while going through multiple channels and videos I landed here.. So thank you for taking time.
Hi Shyamal.... When the RR-Unit of my bike failed I faced similar issues with my bike. Best thing would be to take your bike straight to the RE service center and let them handle it... If you can't start the bike then you can make use of your RSA.
@@TheTwinPost can you please suggest me a good seat for the interceptor because i felt uncomfortable on standard seat my butt got numb after 10 kms🤣😂🤣 so i am looking for comfortable seat if have any suggestions please do🙏🏽 Thanks In advance
If you live in Delhi then you can get a customised one as per your preference from *Khajanchi Seats* in Karol Bagh (That's where I got mine made). Otherwise there are quite a few aftermarket ones but I've realised one thing that you'll have to compromise in terms of looks to get comfort. I've made a detailed video for the one that I got: ua-cam.com/video/BKlwEt8fGmY/v-deo.html
Brother, even I have an interceptor bs6, I observed that whenever I am refuelling the bike from almost an empty tank to a full tank, it doesn't get filled more than 7.95-8 litres at a time that too filled fully although the tank is 14 litres. kindly shed some light on this! :)
Hi Utkarsh...well that's weird.. when I'm on a long ride and we stop for fuel...I usually fill up about 9-10 litres with the fuel tank not being fully empty. The best logical explanation I could find to this was - *It is extremely likely that you have a problem with either the fuel tank's vent hose or with the evap system, most likely the evap canister. Same thing happens when you are filling up your Fuel tank at the pump. The air already in the tank prevents the gasoline at certain level to be pumped into the tank*
Hi Vaibhav... Actually the stock setup worked fine and managed pretty well... although In case of added luggage we sure can bump up the pre-load on the rear a little...will try it out sometime.
Bike to aramse karlegi Ladakh ride aisa koi issue nahi hoga aapko - bas ek cheez ka risk hai or vo hai spoke rims jiska matlab hai tube tyres. Agar puncture hua to bura fas sakte ho aap
I would suggest spoke adjustment from the service center...since this method has been pretty successful. If already tried then the service center people would be able to assist.
Hi Sandeep... I have got the tubeless conversion kit installed on my bike... and it's been 7 months now. It's working really well and I encountered a puncture as well which took a couple of minutes to fix.
Help me bro, I wanted to purchase a bike within 4 lacks and confused. I will use the bike for long long years. My requirements is 60% city (Daily office, normal city work and traffics), 40% highway (highway + rough trail) and pillion comfort also a requirement. I am confused between KTM 390 Adventure, Dominar 400 UG and Interceptor. Please please suggest me which one would be best for me. OR Should I wait for another bike launch,
Hi there.... I'm assuming you have shortlisted the bikes which you have mentioned in your comment. So I'll talk about these three as per your needs.. The 390adv and Dominar can handle city traffic better than the Interceptor in terms of the ease... 390 doesn't like going slow and has jerky throttle at slow speeds...hence in slow moving speed Dominar is better overall. Highways...we'll all three are perfectly capable... But Interceptor shines on the highway because of its engine... Minimal gear shifts and loads of torque for overtakes. Pillion Comfort: Both Adv390 and Dominar's stock pillion setup is more comfortable than the Interceptor's stock pillion seating stance because of the unusually high footpeg position. Interceptor needs a seat mod and pillion footpeg relocator to be at par with the other two bikes here. If you're willing to go for certain mods then Interceptor is a great choince....and the reason I'm saying this is also because of the fact that you want to keep the bike for many years to come.... And for that factor I would rate the Interceptor better than the other two
Hey, my Interceptor's brake pads are totally gone. and in this lockdown I'm not able to find any. any suggestions from where I can buy the original Brembo brake pads online?
Hi Kushagra.... Even my bike's brake pads required replacement and the service center didn't have them in stock..... So I went for EBC Brake pads from *Pathpavers* . They are as good as the BREMBO ones that come stock and cost almost similar as well.

@@TheTwinPost Thank you for your prompt reply , I have done just over 2000kms on my 2020 Glitter and Dust , and as yet have had no problems with the bike except the money it's cost me on after market accessories , IE short smoked Givi screen , Motone bar risers , chrome engine guards , Continental touring seat , rear chrome rack , stainless steel oil cooler cover ,stainless steal chain guard , sump guard , DNA air filter , Booster plug and most expensive of all the S&S Slip on mufflers , so now it not only looks good but goes good , but now I'm very interested in the upcoming 650 twin cruiser, which I will probably spend more money on , PS I'm South Australia .

Bhai tubeless spoke rims bohot mehenge aate hain... India me sabse sasti bike with tubeless spoke rims almost 9.5 lakhs ki aati hai (Suzuki Vstrom 650). To 3 lakh ki bike me ye de nahi paegi RE....zada se zada alloy wheels nikal sakti hai Interceptor ke liye jo actually nikal dene chahiye the but abtak nahi nikale.
Meri bike pe mene spoke rims ko tubeless karvake ab bina tube ke chala raha hu...7 mahine ho chuke hain or koi issue nahi aaya hai

Can you please suggest me good hazard lights and mobile charger for interceptor 650
pls don't go for Ralco Speedblaster tyres. These tyres perform very bad in rainy season or if you find any wet surface. skidding issue bahut hota hai.
I bought bs6 no wobble now
My head says Dominar n heart says Interceptor. Dominar is better package than Interceptor. In City run Interceptor is a task. Interceptor is heavier than Dominar. Interceptor is less fuel efficient than dominar and I doubt if I shall drive Interceptor with my kid as pillion as raised exhaust touched his feet during test ride. All above factors blow off when I see Interceptor in canyon Red ❤
Agreed with all your points... Dominar is a well rounded package and covers most of the practical aspects whithout the need of any mods.
I'll add one thing here though... Talking of positives of Interceptor - that engine is a gem...it's refinement, torque delivery and utter smoothness is something which obviously a single cylinder Dominar just cannot match.
But practicality is something that Dominar really delivers in...plus it has got some decent power too.
Are you in any Interceptor what's app group? Would be much more convenient to connect with you. I have been following you from your very 1st video and recently got my Revishing Red INT.
And yes i am again saying this, your voice is like Love Guru, so soothing..😁

For anything bikerelated you can connect with me through Instagram : instagram.com/thetwinpost?

Occasional neutral between 5th & 6th gear. I sometimes witnessed this issue.
Hi Juan... That's a new one that I've heard
@@TheTwinPost Last year I rode a Continental GT for half an hour and did the same thing. Now I own an Interceptor with repeated issue. Maybe the reason is changing gears too fast I'm afraid.
@@TheTwinPost by the way, she is in her soften up process (riding in 6th gear at 80 km/h, under 3.500 rpm) for at least 1.500-2.000 km and drinks only 3,58 lts/100 km of petrol. Very good machine at the moment.
@@juanjoseviaderorivas5998 Awesome 🙌
wanna ask something related to tyres...we all know pirellis are far better than ceat but can we really have the fun with ceat and the confidence in corners with the latter tyres(ps: obviously after getting the tyre warm up and the engine too coz pirellis sportcomp that use to come before wasnt good if u dont warm up the tyres)
Hi Teko... I've ridden with these tyres on another bike as well.... The Jawa Perak... Perak also comes with Ceat Zoom Cruze tyres and I did 120-130+ speeds with them and they felt amazing on long sweeping curves....it felt like the tyres offered more but the bike was not capable of delivering more.... that's where Interceptor comes in...These tyres are perfectly fine for what Interceptor is capable of.... I can say that with what I've experienced.
@@TheTwinPost ok lets hope for the best like how u mention coz i have heard ceat cant replace the mighty pirellis so wanna just confirm from someone with some information.
Should I buy gears from Royal Enfield showroom? They're providing some discount? If yes which product, taking mid- budget in every gear..
Thankyou bhaiya ❤️
Hi there... Actually RE gears are pretty well made...a little on the expensive side but with discounts they are really good deal. I myself bought Military-brown gloves for daily riding and a black Windfarer riding jacket for my better half from (RE Citywalk Delhi)... I got a very good quality Duffle bag worth 2k free with the jacket (there was an offer).
Quality is pretty good... Although the Armor is CE-1 ....but that's something you can upgrade I'm the future too....one can get a CE-2/3 level armour and install it.
Windfar jacket costed me 7k (plus free Duffle bag worth 2k) and the daily riding gloves were for 2k which at discount were for 1.6k
@@TheTwinPost tum great ho bhaiya! So whenever my bike will be delivered, I want your assistance with bike accessories like khanjanchi seat,

Very informative. I am also planning for interceptor. My only concern is the pillion comfort.
Is this Dhanolti route via maldevta?
Hi Pravesh...there are certain mods you can do to improve pillion comfort by alot...please watch this for more info: ua-cam.com/video/hT6BOdNCxT0/v-deo.html
This route is towards Nadaun (Himachal Pradesh)
Why tube tyre , RE sh have given tubeless, cheated customer, I was considering this bike I had almost brought it, now with heavy heart I am going for a 2nd thought . Rather I will go for 350, honda hness, classic 350 is like splendor or cd dawn now a days.
Sir, IskeExhuast jo hai vo bike ka look kharab kar dete hai to iske lie koi option hai? Aur agar puncture hua to bhi pareshani ho sakti hai to koi achha option batayie as I'm going to purchase Interceptor very soon.
Hi Krunal....agar stock exhausts ke look se aap khush nahi ho to market me bohot saare options available hain... AEW, Powerage, MotoWings, Gursevak etc.
New Interceptor me ab Ceat ke tube tyres aate hain....to in tyres ke saath only option hai ki aap anti-puncture gel use karo....lekin agar aapko tubeless chahiye to aapko tyres change karvane padenge and then ya to alloy wheels ya fir Outex/Way2Speed tubeless conversion kit install karvana padega spoke rims par.
Bhai konse konse simple and legal modifications necessary hai interceptor ke liye?!
Handlebar riser, windscreen visor, seat customisation & pillion footpeg relocator kit (if you plan on doing tours with a pillion).
Itna karlo agar to aapko long distance me bhi maza aega
Only thing I'm worried about on interceptor is punture issue as it is a tube tyre (on BS6 comes with Pirelli-stock)..so any solutions for that?😓 But I heard that Timsun is good for interceptor & it is also tubeless type so after installing Timsun I can use anti-punture kit for tubeless option....isn't it useful?
You are absolutely right.... Switching to a tubeless tyre and then getting the tubeless conversion kit installed would save you from some really tough situations.
Timsuns have recieved decent reviews till now so you can definitely go for them.
@@TheTwinPost yah that's the only way to get rid off from punture issues😓I was planning for Dominar then switched to Int650..btw what is the best anti-puncture kit available in the market now...(*note- Budget is not an issue) btw one more thing I heard that Timsun rear size is 150section & front 120..is it true ? & If yes then any problem for upgrade?
Usually people go for Outex kit if budget isn't an issue...BUT Outex seems to fail alot more if it is not installed from someone who is an absolute expert at it.... (Bulu Biker's Outex kit on his Interceptor failed within 2 months of installation from Art of Motorcycles in Bangalore).
I have been using the Way2Speed tubeless conversion kit for the past 7 months now and my experience has been phenomenal with it....no unusual psi loss... encountered a puncture during my long ride which took 2 minutes to fix.
I got the kit installed from PathPavers in Delhi as it was suggested by the seller (Way2Speed) themselves... Satisfied with the product.
It's so so easy and cheap to covert a tubed rim to tubeless, I've done it on mine, all you need is some sealent for the spokes on the inside and tho it's optional some tape over that
What about city riding mainly daily commute ? Interceptor or himalyan ?
Interceptor is on the heavier side and you'll have to get used to its weight.... Plus in city traffic don't expect a mileage of more than 22 kmpl.
@@TheTwinPost heating issue hai ?
It does heatup... But that is expected from a 650cc twin cylinder engine.... But not to an extent where I would feel the need to get off the bike (the way it does on the Harley)
Iska tyr Kitna km pr change karana Chahiye
Bro one doubt. Since these are spoke rims.. Fitting a RALCO tubeless.. Will it work?.. As RALCO is tubeless and bike has spoke rims how will it be air tight?
Hi Rahul... Fitting Ralco tubeless tyre would work along with a tube inside just like the original Pirelli tyres (which were also tubeless) came with tubes.
I got the rims converted to tubeless that's why I'm able to use the Ralco tyres without tubes.
I've covered this topic in one the video...you can check it out if required: ua-cam.com/video/TK-Qvu69XPo/v-deo.html

@@TheTwinPost thank you soo much..
Please let me know the reasons for rpm fluctuation in interceptor ,leading to engine shut down...batery signal light is glowing all the time !!!
Hi Shyamal.... When the RR-Unit of my bike failed I faced similar issues with my bike.
Best thing would be to take your bike straight to the RE service center and let them handle it... If you can't start the bike then you can make use of your RSA.
@@TheTwinPost okk ,thanks

@@TheTwinPost can you please suggest me a good seat for the interceptor because i felt uncomfortable on standard seat my butt got numb after 10 kms🤣😂🤣
so i am looking for comfortable seat if have any suggestions please do🙏🏽
Thanks In advance
If you live in Delhi then you can get a customised one as per your preference from *Khajanchi Seats* in Karol Bagh (That's where I got mine made). Otherwise there are quite a few aftermarket ones but I've realised one thing that you'll have to compromise in terms of looks to get comfort.
I've made a detailed video for the one that I got: ua-cam.com/video/BKlwEt8fGmY/v-deo.html

Hi Adil....you can access the link below for the sellers Insta ID and place the order after talking to them.

Nice video. Did ur tubeless experiment work? Is it worth doing ?
Hi Chirag... This tubeless kit has been working flawlessly for almost 10 months now... It's worth every rupee I spent on it.
Brother, even I have an interceptor bs6, I observed that whenever I am refuelling the bike from almost an empty tank to a full tank, it doesn't get filled more than 7.95-8 litres at a time that too filled fully although the tank is 14 litres. kindly shed some light on this! :)
Hi Utkarsh...well that's weird.. when I'm on a long ride and we stop for fuel...I usually fill up about 9-10 litres with the fuel tank not being fully empty.
The best logical explanation I could find to this was - *It is extremely likely that you have a problem with either the fuel tank's vent hose or with the evap system, most likely the evap canister. Same thing happens when you are filling up your Fuel tank at the pump. The air already in the tank prevents the gasoline at certain level to be pumped into the tank*
@@TheTwinPost Yeahhh I hope so, I'll get it checked as soon as things get better in Delhi. Thanks for the reply buddy! :) great going

i have a bs6 interceptor and it still wobbles over 80 kmph
I would suggest spoke adjustment from the service center...since this method has been pretty successful. If already tried then the service center people would be able to assist.
Sir hows your anti puncture kit works which you installed 3 4 months back ??
Hi Sandeep... I have got the tubeless conversion kit installed on my bike... and it's been 7 months now. It's working really well and I encountered a puncture as well which took a couple of minutes to fix.
Or ECU update k baad kya pickup ya top speed men Koi fark ata hai kya
Nahi bhai ECU update se aisa koi farak nahi aega.... Sirf jo pahado par bike band pad rahi thi usko theek kiya tha company ne is update ko laakar
Help me bro, I wanted to purchase a bike within 4 lacks and confused. I will use the bike for long long years. My requirements is 60% city (Daily office, normal city work and traffics), 40% highway (highway + rough trail) and pillion comfort also a requirement. I am confused between KTM 390 Adventure, Dominar 400 UG and Interceptor. Please please suggest me which one would be best for me. OR Should I wait for another bike launch,
Hi there.... I'm assuming you have shortlisted the bikes which you have mentioned in your comment. So I'll talk about these three as per your needs..
The 390adv and Dominar can handle city traffic better than the Interceptor in terms of the ease... 390 doesn't like going slow and has jerky throttle at slow speeds...hence in slow moving speed Dominar is better overall.
Highways...we'll all three are perfectly capable... But Interceptor shines on the highway because of its engine... Minimal gear shifts and loads of torque for overtakes.
Pillion Comfort: Both Adv390 and Dominar's stock pillion setup is more comfortable than the Interceptor's stock pillion seating stance because of the unusually high footpeg position.
Interceptor needs a seat mod and pillion footpeg relocator to be at par with the other two bikes here.
If you're willing to go for certain mods then Interceptor is a great choince....and the reason I'm saying this is also because of the fact that you want to keep the bike for many years to come.... And for that factor I would rate the Interceptor better than the other two
@@TheTwinPost Thanks a lot for your reply. Now I am all clear about my doubts. Thanks you again.👍👍👍
Hey, my Interceptor's brake pads are totally gone. and in this lockdown I'm not able to find any. any suggestions from where I can buy the original Brembo brake pads online?
Hi Kushagra.... Even my bike's brake pads required replacement and the service center didn't have them in stock..... So I went for EBC Brake pads from *Pathpavers* . They are as good as the BREMBO ones that come stock and cost almost similar as well.
@@TheTwinPost thank you so much for the information. I'll surely look into that.

Apke anusar sab achha hai meri bike men
Throttle, pickup,overtecking,top speed, sab achha hai but
Ek problem nhi gya or vo starting se lagbhag 3,4 hajar km se hone laga hai vo hai hendle ki awaj Karna chee,chee,ki awaj karta hai jab chota khadda ya speed breaker se nikalte hai tab yh awaj karta hai sir
Reply soon sir please
Or yh ECU ko kese samjhaye unko agency walon ko
Vo tarika batao
Tomar bhai vaise jo bhi Interceptor August-2019 ke baad ki manufacturing vaali hai usme vo ECU update peeche se hokar hi aaya hai...to agar aapko bike Aug-2019 ke baad ki hai to aapki bike pe vo updated hi hona chahiye pehle se hi.
Agar aapko service center se aisa response aaraha hai jaha unko khud hi nahi pata ECU ke baare me....fir aap Royal Enfield ko ek lambi chaudi email maardo apni bike ka number, service center ki details or phone number daalke.... Uspar action lenge vo.
Handlebar se aane vaali avaaz ke liye most probably aapke handlebar ke coneset me greasing ki requirement hai...jo karne par ye issue theek hojaega.

@@TheTwinPost Thank you for your prompt reply , I have done just over 2000kms on my 2020 Glitter and Dust , and as yet have had no problems with the bike except the money it's cost me on after market accessories , IE short smoked Givi screen , Motone bar risers , chrome engine guards , Continental touring seat , rear chrome rack , stainless steel oil cooler cover ,stainless steal chain guard , sump guard , DNA air filter , Booster plug and most expensive of all the S&S Slip on mufflers , so now it not only looks good but goes good , but now I'm very interested in the upcoming 650 twin cruiser, which I will probably spend more money on , PS I'm South Australia .
Whoa.... that's some tastefully selected mods right there... I'm sure your *Glitter & Dust* goes much better than the stock now and even sounds amazing with those S&S end-cans.
Yes we've encountered the cruiser version of the 650 on our streets multiple times during its test runs... Looks proper cruiser too.

It definitely does.
