Interceptor 650 fuel cap problem and solution.

Here's a detailed video about the problematic fuel cap rubber of the Intereceptor650 and Continental GT650 and it's long term solution. Thanks to Road power Customs, I no longer have to replace all 3 locks on the motorcycle, that are Fuel Cap, Side panel and the Handle-lock/ Ignition.

P.s. The video is smudgy because of the terrible pollution around New Delhi at the moment. Apologies for that.

Canadian customers be aware it's 70$usd for shipping

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Thank you for this. I’m pinning this info.

[@GregoryHouseMD1]

70USD?

[@666Kudos]

Thaa Fokkk.... Its more easy to own a zx10R than Royal Enfield in Canada I guess... lol

[@SrinivasGanesh]

@@666Kudos hahaha what a stark difference.

[@666Kudos]

@@SrinivasGanesh It is indeed, I just checked for a random price or a rectifier unit it costs 140 pounds in UK, I am absolutely certain it costs more in Canada. The damn thing cost 20 bucks tops to manufacture... ahhahah

[@longjonwhite]

How bloody crazy that RE would choose to replace all those locks, instead of simply upgrading the damn gasket !

[@SrinivasGanesh]

I know right!

[@MeAndMyRoyalEnfield]

Added this to my Maintenance Playlist to hopefully help other people. I had that problem and it took a long time to figure out the problem and cure. Great video! Oh and love your paint scheme.

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Thank you so much for watching!! The paint scheme is one of the best! :P Sadly it was discontinued in 2023, but that makes mine a limited edition! :P

[@MeAndMyRoyalEnfield]

@@SrinivasGanesh Haha, mine too. Big bucks someday? 🤣

[@ruahinesrider]

Definitely the best solution.I have seen them for sale through Royal Spares & Ebay.

[@SrinivasGanesh]

They are pretty good with their service and delivery. I’m very happy

[@alphaaelectricalsandinstru9036]

I am experiencing the same issue!...That's very helpful! Big like to your efforts mate.

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Thank you for watching the video. This was almost a year ago, and I’m happy to share I have not faced any issue with the fuel cap rubber at all since then. 🙌🏽

[@kevynjoshua14]

Too good Sri! Thanks a lot. You don’t know the countless times you’ve helped me out!

[@SrinivasGanesh]

wow thank you for your comment and for watching the video!

[@BicepsBiker]

this was much needed for me since am facing the same issue, thanks for sharing it at the right time bhai

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Much glad that I was able to help you! Thank you for seeing the video brother!

[@vikasshelke5544]

I have done it myself from used tractor tubes and they lasted the life of bike , why the hell manufacturers design such locks where soft seals are cut .To Change entire lock set and what do they do with replaced lock set . Scrap

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Wow! Do you have a DIY video?

[@notsure9853]

This is gold thank you

Recently I worked on valve adjustment. Had to remove tank. Unfortunately for Baker Express model, it can leave yellow stains which are hard to remove. Be sure to lay the tank right way around and flat.

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Thank you for this tip! I’ll be sure to do that! 🫶🏽🤙🏽

[@89k34r]

Faced the same issue what did you do about the stains

[@MrRourk]

Thanks Just the part I need

[@theradiantchild]

Road power is pretty pricey if you don't live in India. Ebay all day long.

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Oh I didn’t know that.

[@WanderSinghS]

Hi Bro can you please explain how to you clean the water exit hole on fuel tank. Surprisingly it's very small and post wash or rain water gets collected

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Mine doesn’t. There is usually a rubber hose that comes to where the rear brake reservoir is. Ensure that is not cloged.

[@anandgosala6660]

Me too facing the same issue thank for the video …it’s cost about 1248 rupees including shipping charges

[@SrinivasGanesh]

A worthy investment/ inclusion to the bike!

[@lalitkhopade6747]

Thanks for the video. Very informative 👍

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Thank you so much for watching the video!

[@KitarPratiK]

This was informative! Thanks Sri

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Thank you so much!!

[@aqilbary904]

Thank you for the informative video! I ended up purchasing the same product for mine. I currently have some choking left due to water getting in the tank because of the 'one time' leaving it in rain (Its reduced alot but not fully recovered yet). Do you have any recommendation or reference video on how to get it out? I know taking it to the showroom will have them telling me that I will need to replace a couple of parts for no reason and so will save that as the last resource.

[@SrinivasGanesh]

I'm glad that you found this channel and found this video useful. To get the remaining water out, you will have to take it to an experienced mechanic who will take out your tank, drain the fuel from it, and then remove the fuel pump. Clean them both and put them back together. It is definitely a tedious process but on the upside, you only have to do this once. Thank you for watching the video. I wish you good luck!

[@gianpaul1093]

Sir could you share link for the bar end mirrors?

[@andrewbull3537]

Thanks for the video 👍, very interesting......but please ....use a smaller screwdriver, ITS so easy to slip and slice your hand open (yes ,i've done it myself 😁) .see you later mate ,take care on the road. Peace out ✌ P.s where did you buy your handlebars?

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Hahaha I did the best I could with what I had. 😉 Thank you for watching the video! I got it from RE showroom. Ask for Himalayan Handlebar.

[@SohailKhanAyaan]

My fuel tank fills with water in Rainy day will this solve my problem?

[@SrinivasGanesh]

yeah, one should avoid parking and riding in the rain. If you know that it is about to rain then better to cover it up. much better, cheaper and easier to avoid than to buy a replacement. The high quality rubber is there to prevent it from being damaged due to dust and other elements. It should be fine in rain. But still avoid parking or riding in rain.

[@Obito10371]

Hello sir i need to chat with u about roadpower customs

[@dodgingrain3695]

That's a serious screwdriver!

Royal Enfield only. By they are from Himalayan. Will make a video soon.

Does it fit gt 535 fuel cap?

[@SrinivasGanesh]

No idea. If the 650 fuel cap fits 535 then it might.

[@anmolsinghjamwal]

Sir if you could please share a video about your new helmet or perhaps share a link to buy that retro helmet. :-)

The Brand is Torc T150. Open face helmet. Graphic is Flying Tiger. :)

[@rattengift42]

thanks for the video, buthe link for the fuel cap rubber doesn't work

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Which browser are you using?

[@mgmoura]

the insane coast.... this is the only problem, about 70 usd for ring + shipping (to brazil 10/2022) dont have another similar ring?

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Sadly the cost is purely for shipping. :(

[@ThanuV]

Have a doubt, won’t RE service do the same by replacing the rubber with a new one 🤓

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Yes they will replace it, but what they do is a bit different. They Change the petrol tank cap lock, side panel lock and the ignition lock, since all three are opened by the same key. And they might take 2 weeks or longer to replace it. So if you are going on a vacation for that long, then go ahead give it to RE service center. 😉 or just replace the rubber cap yourself. Which is what I did. 🤓
