User Review of Interceptor 650 by Soumya Ranjan Muduli

I have been part of the Royal Enfield family for more than 20 years. Earlier I had Thunderbird and now it's been more than 5 years with Interceptor. Interceptor is a straightforward bike. It is easy to handle, has minimal maintenance issues, and its pickup is among the best.
The mileage is a bit less. It's in the 20s but I don't have any complaints regarding that
The company-fitted seat is ok but you can get that upgraded by replacing it with Royal Enfield's custom seats. Those are great.
To summarize, it's a great bike for every season and every road. Either you ride in the city or go for a long ride.

About the Reviewer

The way it rides man you will fall in love with it. Might be heavy for new users but you get used to it. The engine just gets hot so fast but that's because of the 650cc engine. The weight balance is also great and one loves to ride it. The smoothness and the power are just great I ride it safe at 80-85 but as a new rider, one can push to 150 easily.

About the Reviewer

Best bike. from Royal Enfield. Owning it makes you feel proud. No competition from anyone, any brand. Royal Enfield is the original. Rest are trying to copy. You don't even have to think before buying a Royal Enfield. A brand that has been trusted for years Long rides as well as city rides are comfortable and always a pleasure.

About the Reviewer

The buying experience was good, not much hassle. Coming to the riding pleasure, it stands out in the power and smoothness segment. There is just enough power to stay engaged. The only issue is the seat, it's not that comfortable.
The bike looks almost perfect as a retro motorcycle from all angles. Service is slightly costlier, especially the brake pads they are damn expensive.
Pros- Good power, looks, and value for money.
Cons- seat comfort and mileage

About the Reviewer

I would say plenty of things about THE ROYAL ENFIELD INTERCEPTOR 650
I love the way it performs on streets and long drives especially when it comes to handling corners is on point.
I haven't owned this vehicle, but I've driven quite a long drive with my buddies
The throttle response makes me shiver through my bones I'm in love with this beast !! Someday I'm gonna own this.
Speaking of comfortably I have no complaints I've driven around 400 km nonstop with no back pain the seating posture is so good.
It has some heating issues of course it's 650 CC what can you expect from the hot beast ( but the company should improve with oil cooling radiators )
One thing left to say buy it without hesitation if you are a long-drive drive enthusiastic person who performs very well in all terrains. I recommend it.

About the Reviewer

My journey with the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 began with a seamless buying experience. The dealership was professional, making the process easy and enjoyable. Riding the Interceptor 650 was an immediate thrill. Its 648cc engine offered smooth, powerful performance, and the bike's retro design turned heads wherever I went.
Performance-wise, the Interceptor excelled on highways and handled city rides with ease. The braking system was reliable, but the suspension felt stiff on rough roads, which was a slight downside on longer trips. Servicing was straightforward, with parts readily available, although maintaining the chrome fittings required extra care.
The bike's pros included its powerful engine, smooth handling, and classic looks. It was versatile enough for both city commutes and long tours. On the downside, the suspension's stiffness on uneven roads and the bike's weight could be challenging for some riders.
Overall, the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 delivered an exhilarating riding experience with a few minor drawbacks, making it a worthy addition for any motorcycle enthusiast.
Positive Points:
$ Powerful engine
$ Smooth handling
$ Classic, head-turning design
$ Versatile for city and long-distance rides
Negative Points:
$ Stiff suspension on rough roads
$ Heavy weight can be challenging for some riders
$ Extra care needed for chrome fittings

About the Reviewer

Classic design, smooth power delivery, comfortable ergonomics, and extensive service network. Some riders may find it heavy, with occasional quality issues. But I love it when I get on it and its exhaust gives a feeling that non-bikes can give and I especially love to ride it in rainy seasons. If anyone wants to buy it do dont think about the cost because this bike was my dream to ride.

About the Reviewer

Interceptor 650 is a very reliable bike in that price segment
It gives a very good comfort.
The looks are very good and very impressive.
The performance is very superb.
Service and maintenance are also very price-worthy.
It is very good on every terrain. The only con is the high heat in the engine only in city rides.

About the Reviewer

Firstly mileage!!
You get approximately 18!
And if ur adding an aftermarket exhaust you get almost 14!
You will hate this bike in traffic cause of heat and weight of the bike
You will love this bike in highways
Service is pretty decent not that good nor that bad
And the common problem is brake or clutch lever brakes easily
If punctured you should take it to the service center and they remove the tyres and give and we should go close the puncture and come to that things sucks cause no puncher shop closes the puncher of this bike cause of the sensors in the wheel its too risky so they just don’t do it!
