Thx, I am 6.2' and 245lbs. I should be fine. I sat on one at the dealership. Dimensions are fine. To my surprise I fit quite well on the GT as well. good to know that the power is adequate. I had a Suzuki GS550 back in the 1980s and that really had all the power that I needed. The INT is probably similar.

Well done, a good example of the Interceptor’s capabilities. When I was a cycling teenager living in a rural village, we drooled over an older lad’s (still a teenager) Triumph Bonneville 650 T120. We would listen out for him returning from work just to see and here the bike, in the knowledge that it was one of the fastest bikes ‘in the world’ (we were teenagers 😉). For context, a good example of that era Bonneville was producing mid 40’s bhp………. With today’s ever diminishing speed limits, the Interceptor is an ideal everyday bike. The sales figures and solid used values would suggest that Royal Enfield have identified just that and developed their own slot in the market to support the theory. Keep ‘em coming…

Thank you so much for this video! I have been on the fence about one of these bikes. Had an earlier bullet 500..... liked it, but when I moved to where I am now, ( south Carolina low country ., all straight roads and everyone driving at least 70mph.....) the disadvantage of acceleration with the old bullet would have meant my death. So, some times you must accelerate for safety. This was my last stumbling block. Thank you again, this video was incredibly useful, just phoned the dealership and told them to get mine ready!!!!!!

I have been riding for over 55 years. Currently have two Moto Guzzis but have owned Ducatis, Laverdas, Moto Morini, Suzuki, BSA, Triumph, Indian, Kawasaki, Zundaps, BMWs. The point of my post is to suggest to stay off the dark middle patch on the highway, especially in the wet. This is where oil from millions of previous vehicles have been deposited. Anticipation and positioning are the two most important laws to embrace when riding motorcycle. Anticipate that cars either do not see you or do not respect you and will compromise your lane position or pull out in front of you without regard to safety concerns. Position your bike to allow you an escape space when cars drift into your lane or claim they do not see you in their rearview of sideview mirrors. Great video by the way--mike

To my amazement, Royal Enfield came top with the least, with BMW a very close second. Harley came bottom, with particulate matter about 20 times worse than the Royal Enfield. This is a marque that deserves full credit, and long may it remain affordable. A good choice for a person who just wants a quality bike, with good handling and reasonable performance.

I almost bought one for my first street bike. I thought it may be a little underpowered for the expressway, not that it wouldn't keep up but I wanted extra headroom in case I needed it for an escape path. The brakes were reported as squishy on some reviews. The levers and handgrips could be better quality. I am not saying it's a bad bike. One thing was the local Enfield dealer where I live just left a bad taste in my mouth and I didn't want to do business with him. The next closest dealer was over an hour away. I settled on the Kawasaki Z650RS which is being delivered this week. It's still a very approachable bike for a beginner. I think it will give me some room to grow. Actually if the local dealer acted decent I may have been talked into buying the int650 and I do think it looks cool. I think we use a different word than knob here in the states.

Good video Nick, the real headbangers will never find it fast enough but for anyone who values their life and their licence it's plenty fast enough IMHO. You can have loads of fun on these smaller bikes, I've currently got a CBF1000 and recently acquired a cb500X which is not a fast bike but it's light, nimble with a peppy little engine and never fails to put a smile on my face I can throw it around and take liberties with it much more than I can with the 1000 so it has become my "go to" bike for pretty much every day. The only time I would take the 1000 by preference is if I was going to be doing a lot of Motorway miles where the big engine is just a lot more relaxed sustaining high speed over long distance.

Watching your tach as you merged onto the dual carriage way confirmed what my ears were hearing… you’re shifting well before you’ve exhausted the 650’s power band. So even though your video made a point… it could have done so more emphatically had the shifts come later. If folks try riding it like a Harley and keeping the revs low it might seem boring to them. But if you shift up closer to 7 grand and do your spirited riding in the 4-5 grand cruising range, the bike becomes way more eager to please.

I hate when bike reviewers call a bike boring. Oh this super reliable bike wont let you kill yourself due to it having modern safety standards? THE HORROR! The worst is when people talk about the Ryker being boring... one of the main complaints these nimrods say about that motorcycle is that it wont let you lift the wheels up? WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO? Another one of my favorite moto-youtubers rides scooters with a third of the displacement of your Interceptor all over the US, talking 2-3000 mile journeys going at an optimistic 55ish MPH with a tail wind in his favor. The way some of the reviewers review things is akin to calling a fish stupid due to its inability to climb a tree, and its a major problem, imo. That being said... If a bike cannot do 85+ MPH I cannot use it for my region of Texas, people go well in excess of that on the regular. Just the other night heading home, I was riding 90ish, and someone drove passed me so quickly all I know it was some sort of SUV, I couldnt even tell you the color, as it was just a blur.

I consider my Interceptor's running RPM to be medium to low by today's standards. With the improved metals, short stroke engine design, piston timing and especially with today's vastly improved lubrication, what used to be redline (5,500 RPM) now feels silky smooth. At no RPM does my engine vibrate or feel like its is "wound out" or straining. I've worked on Harleys and yes they are what you are talking about RPM wise, but I vastly prefer the smoothness of my Enfield.

I agree that the interceptor is fast enough, but it is not powerful enough for those effortless overtakes. Hence the r1200gs!!!

It looks really slow sorry - It looks like it has has the 47bhp it's got - I am gutted as I would really like the looks of it, but that lack of power really puts me off. I don't think I could go from the 90bhp I have now to that, it doesn't look any faster than my car.
