Things i like with lcds: my phone, tablet and laptop. Things i like analogue: my watch and the instrument cluster of my car and bike. Just because you can slap a screen doesnt mean you should for some things.

[@SrinivasGanesh]

While this maybe true for a lot of people, we have to accept that change is the only way forward. :) No disrespect to anyone. Thank you for watching the video!

[@n-i2ttyy]

@SrinivasGanesh thanks for making great content! But going by that re needs to come up with a high compression short stroke liquid cooled parallel twins which rev over 10k rpms to go with those lcds 😆. The selling point behind the 650 and 350 lineup is the lazy retro classic engine and aesthetics. The 450s are the modern motorcycle in the lineup and the lcds do look good on them. Just my opinion.

[@artistryamour6958]

I booked a GT last year but then changed that decision to buy a Classic , I love it but somehow I feel a slight regret on that decision whenever I see a GT , so I am looking forward to buying a GT in next two years, let’s see what RE brings in the new GT 750 or 850 whatever it’s gonna be :) Great content btw

[@vinayakdinde6270]

same i bought hunter and now im waiting for new gt finally worth the waiting ❤

[@SrinivasGanesh]

That is a good decision! in the next two years, seeing the way RE is aggressively expanding its portfolio, I am sure that you will have a ton of options to choose from!

[@SrinivasGanesh]

@@vinayakdinde6270 It would most definitely be worth the wait!

[@woodstockwoodstock2116]

I hope it is an 850. I would not want that frame but I am salivating for a bigger engine from RE. A 750 would not take me far enough from the Interceptor I have. Which is already bliss on two wheels.

[@SrinivasGanesh]

It is definitely bigger than the 650. I feel it would be a great update!

[@sidharthsuresh3740]

it would be nice if they give 17inch wheels

[@SrinivasGanesh]

That would solve so many problems!!

[@prathaps848]

The 17inchers from Guerr450 will do just fine.

[@Alpha27GTR]

pretty sure the ex-showroom price is going to be 450k+ INR if the engine capacity is increased to 750 CC

[@SrinivasGanesh]

I think it will touch that price point. but you never know, RE might release a cheaper paint scheme, like single tone colour etc and the custom paint ones will be like INR4.5L.

[@OlafThorbjorn]

I love that they are launching a new model so they clear their left over 2024’s with special prices and I can finally justify a second toy with a lovely solo seat. Basically I will finally get my dream bike 😍😍😍😍😍

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Hahah that is a good perspective, I too am thinking of going for a motorcycle that would solely be used for weekend, short rides. And nothing comes close to either Continental GT, a Triumph Speed Twin 1200 or a Triumph Thruxton 1200

[@xxxxjbb]

why RE deciding to remove that beautiful twin pod analogue meter.. that is the main beauty from front

[@Aayush789]

Because triumph also removed those

[@SrinivasGanesh]

haha don't know if we should compare Triumph to RE since RE is the market leader in India.

[@SrinivasGanesh]

I believe change is the only way forward and RE is implementing that fearlessly!

[@saiprateek5779]

Just looking it it seems it came out of TOP GUN 1😍😍

[@SrinivasGanesh]

It does indeed!! 🤩

[@VaibhavBain]

The things which I don't like is the instrument cluster, gap between it and the suspensions.

[@SrinivasGanesh]

🫣 Same here

[@MotionwithJoey]

The new interceptor must be liquid-cooled, and a multipoint fuel injection should be done with electronic throttle control. Two rider modes, 6-speed with Dual-Dial Instrumentation with Multi-Function LCD.

[@SrinivasGanesh]

That’s a great prediction for the next iteration! I'm sure RE engineers are on it.

[@Vikassingh-lh1rz]

Dr Mayhem Gt looks really cool

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Oh yeah that was my favourite colour until it was discontinued. 😭

[@vivekshinde1802]

so no one is talking about those, new cover near the back suspension and behind the angle created by legs, which seen on bear 650 as well

[@SrinivasGanesh]

You have a sharp eye! 😎

[@sd3457]

Looks like the same number board side panels as the bear has, which is guess is a race-themed thing to go with the fairing and not just grabbed out of the top of an engineering parts pin. I'm suprised to see conventional forks though, I was expecting the next gen Interceptor and GT to get the Showa upside down ones. I don't think this will stop me ordering a Bear as soon as I can here in NZ.

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Kia ora! Oh yeah Bear 650 is legit very good! I test rode it and made a bunch of videos on it. Just editing those to upload at a later date. :)

[@sudishmaleyur9938]

You think it’s better for me to wait until the new lineup releases or buy one now? Planning for Feb next year..

[@SrinivasGanesh]

I’d be tempted to get one now, they’re so good! Ideally you should wait. It is only a matter of 2 more months.

[@himanish-u3w]

buy one now not much difference anyways

[@SrinivasGanesh]

@@himanish-u3w but do get multiple test rides to see how it feels for YOU.

[@sudishmaleyur9938]

I had my friend’s motorcycle for a couple days.. loved the engine so much! Just the riding posture is not suited for longer rides is my opinion.. thanks for your input ❤️ love your videos..

[@jypsumfantastic]

Is it definitely coming out in Feb? It felt like we waited a long time for the bear and the classic 650 after initial spy shots. Having said that, this looks like a significant upgrade on the current model

[@RageClash]

although I already own 2024 GT650 Mr clean, I am quite interested in this New Generation 750 GT. Damn I should have waited to make the purchase.

[@SrinivasGanesh]

That is alright. You have a fantastic motorcycle. Maintain it nicely, when the time comes you may sell it and get a new one ☺️.

[@RageClash]

@ GT650 is my first and dream bike , I am not gonna sell it, maybe in future in I buy the new Gen GT650 but keep my first bike with me forever

[@LowQualityPigeon]

My thoughts on this. I'm sure analog dials are not coming back since they are moving to the new digital cluster on almost every bike. Fairing definitely needs rework since taller riders will hit the knee on that fairing. I guess the tail light and indicators might be temporarily fixed for testing purposes so it could change. Dual discs do look good and fairing does add to the charm and looks of the bike but hopefully they somehow reduce the weight in other segments otherwise interceptor will feel like a logical option for me personally. Hopefully we get some news about this new engine in upcoming months. Can't wait for this bike to lauch.

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Rightly said. And like I mentioned, because of the aggressive riding position this is a fun bike to ride albeit not for longer duration. Interceptor seems like a practical option. This to me, is like having a bike in your garage only for leisure riding.

[@Tea-ei1cl]

The modern cafe racers are just fully faired sportbikes 😂

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Haha though I feel that cafe racers were more on the street naked kinds.

[@Arnab1violin]

Exciting !!!!!!

[@SrinivasGanesh]

I knowww right!!!

[@Krishnendu792]

They better provide showa forks this time

[@SrinivasGanesh]

I believe they will.

[@himanish-u3w]

great video

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Thank you for watching!

[@piyushhmusic]

Man they really shouldve kept the twin speedo. Or create a hybrid one, Surely they have enough R&D money to make that happen. I really dont like this single digital display. First on the triumphs, now RE.. Would be good if the old gauges could be fitted into the new bike.

[@SrinivasGanesh]

I’m sure there are people out there that have figured a way to do this and would do this in the future. But yes nothing beats that retro feel.

[@clutch-zilla9957]

Hybrid one is coming in the 750s although the bikes in this vid are actually pre 750 updates

[@abhimanyu5031]

@@clutch-zilla9957 you sure??

[@SanandanDA]

It seems to be an early prototype, I think they are trying to get engine and chassis validation done?

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Yes. And get the emissions checked considering it will be a rather large CC motorcycle.

[@KAUSTOV94]

I bought an apex grey gt last year..if the upcoming model makes more than 65 bhp, would exchange my gt

[@SrinivasGanesh]

That is a very good idea.

[@HarshKumar-jc1ct]

Hey, I'm planning to purchase Gt conti.. in the next quarter. Should I wait for the new one or go for current one.🤔

[@SrinivasGanesh]

This is still a prototype and there are a lot of testing to be done. I say go for the current one. When this comes you may trade it for the newer version.

[@shaan2567]

Re should bring in tubeless spoked wheel setup for their other bikes just like they did in goan 350

So does it means that 650 twins are going to be discontinued after getting 750or850 cc model ?

[@AkashPaul-ql1fu]

I somehow think those are not 320mms . Maybe 300s or 280s. They look small compared to current gen 320mm brembo

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Ah I thought those looked like 320mm.

[@SrinivasGanesh]

No clue what you said there.

[@sarthaksharma3655]

Why do you believe that RE will give the choice between older model and this when it hasn't ever done that. Not even with the Himalayan

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Well, the old himalayan may be discontinued but the Scram 440 was just launched at the Motoverse. So 411 got an upgrade and looking at that I suspect that it will give a choice. I could be wrong though. But we can wait and only see

[@navjyothanil1039]

Heyy just wanted to know.... Whats your opinion on putting the new indicator setup of the bear 650 on the interceptor 650

[@SrinivasGanesh]

That’s a great idea actually! Will need some fabrication due to usd suspensions n rear ones too

Did u notice the bear 650 battery covers in get 650/750?

Oh yes I did!

[@GenRevibes]

Do we really need a long-stroke, high-torque engine in a café racer, while a short-stroke twin would be more fun to ride, with the long power curve to enjoy 🐥 ( i just love riding on high RPMs 😅)

But there are so many bikes like that already! These low rpm motors have so much character.

bro but that twin pod dash board the old exhaust the numberplate holder is a major deal breaker for me......... again only for me it might looks good to many but as a person i don't get that og continental gt650 vives from it

I hear you! The OG is still a classic. 🤘

[@seansitymusic559]

Why no usd forks on the new one?

[@SrinivasGanesh]

This is still in the testing phase.

[@ahan2001]

Will it be a 750? Anything more than 47hp will make them lose the A2 license market internationally. seems like a long shot

[@Zawxsecdr]

Bhai can u predict the roadmap of RE for 4-5 years down the line? Will there be a new bigger engines? Like way big Engines? Will we get classic 850? ( I know 650 hasn't been even launched) Also review when classic 650 price are announced 🙏

[@SrinivasGanesh]

It surely looks like bigger engines are on the way. Right now they are already working on 750CC/ 850CC. Which would be plenty for Indian roads. Heck even 650 is great for Indian roads.

[@akashghosh5826]

When is the launch date

[@SrinivasGanesh]

I’m guessing sometime next year

[@pratyushpandole9722]

It's 750cc bike or 650cc both inter & cont ??

[@pranavbhandari3023]

There is speculation that it features a 750cc liquid-cooled engine, based on a 650cc platform.

[@SrinivasGanesh]

who knows it might even be an 850CC. Yes both Int and Continental GT

[@SrinivasGanesh]

@@pranavbhandari3023 yes and a lot of people are saying that it might just be an 850CC too. We can only guess.

[@scorpio9414]

For some reason this doesnt lookd good to me the old one is better look wise. Again just my opinion plz dont hate me Your opinion may differ. Well its final for me i am gonna get INT 650 next yr when the new one comes i hate the instrument cluster design but it has more functions so i guess it will do. I wish they had a hybrid style where they mixed both digital and analog meters.

[@SrinivasGanesh]

haha everyone is entitled to their opinion bhai. Hate is a strong word. Yes that would be a great purchase! Interceptor is a really good motorcycle!

[@ZaheeruddinAhmed-ew4ky]

Wait if it's expected to be a 750cc or an 850cc wouldn't the price rise a lot more? (Sam with the interceptor spied 2025 model)??

[@SrinivasGanesh]

Yes, but keeping its history in making things extremely reasonable, it can come down to this pricing. Or it will be touching 4L exshowroom. The super meteor 650 top model is priced like that due RE offering all the accessories on that model. Else it was also around ₹3.5L

[@bharathyadav1589]

[@jesseneuber4438]

Tbh I think everything you talked about is pretty much irrelevant and subject to Change. This just screams new engine testing bike to me and I hope it's a 850. I think the fairing for example is just so long and almost touching the knees to hide the engine. Obviously all the wires are also for testing.

[@SrinivasGanesh]

I believe I did mention that this is still in its testing phase. 😉🙏🏽 that is of course if you’ve seen the full video. If not, then this comment shall be irrelevant. 🤣

[@jesseneuber4438]

​@@SrinivasGanesh I dont know if my message came across to harsh or something, no I did watch the whole video and also really liked it in general. I just think we shouldn't interpret to much in the fairing or lights or position of the dash because it's all subject to change. Like I said I think it's primarily a testing bike for a new engine and tbh I think that's exciting enough. Besides that the fairing and Cafe racer Elements look super early Stage. But all in all I cant wait for Royal Enfield to release that thing I would love an Himalayan 850 because I'm also quite tall (209cm).

[@jesseneuber4438]

I mean I understand the news here is basically the new fairing (Let's call her Continental R or something like that) but tbh I like my cafe racers without the fairing more and at best with double analog dash. So for me the real exciting news is just the new engine still 😅 if I would have to make a tier list which bike I would be most excited for it would be Himalayan 850, Bear 850, Continental GT 850, Shotgun 850 and than maybe Continental R 850
