What is torque of Royal Enfield Interceptor 650?

Same issue, but mine started from day 1, at first I thought the valves might need some getting used to kinda situation. But after 2 days, when the engine was driven for about 5-10mins and when the engine heat start to build up the sound became louder. I have had few ceased my yamaha FZ-S a couple of times to know when the sound of the engine is not right. tik tik sound in the values in such a performance bike is not acceptable. Imagine riding the bike at top speed, in highways obviously, and suddenly the valves act up. Once my fz's timing change broke loose from its socket as it was not screwed in properly and this was at 80kmph. What if same thing happens?Same response from the service center, this is normal sound, they are checking for sound difference using some instrument to measure decibels.I've never had satisfactory service for my fz, my cars and now 650 twin. I can accept yamaha or skoda as I only approched the authorized service center never expected such no skill or knowledge service from RE directly.

Please warm up the engine 3-5 minutes before moving.The noise may be coming from the valves not getting the proper lubrication.The noise should come down to normal level after warm up.If it still does produce that noise take to service center for a valve clearance recheck.Hope this helps! Happy riding!

Yes like @debabrata said, Both 650 twins come with tubeless tires but since they have spoke rims they have tubes in them. They call it ‘Technically Tubeless Tires’. But if you can wait a few months, Royal Enfield is reportedly bringing out Alloy wheel rims for the Twins as an add on accessory. Before 2023 is what I heard. So maybe wait for it and you can have fully tubeless alloy wheel tires on your Int 650. ✌🏻🤩

All Re interceptor 650 manufacture after Jan 2021 comes with CEAT tube type tyre. so they are not tubeless. if you need to go for tubeless conversion, then you must change tyres.

I left my GT 650 to the RE service station for this issue only, they kept the bike there for 10 days..checked wiring, cleaned, refitted each and every relay, connectors and what not. They did not find any fault in the RR unit. Today when took the bike after 10 long days..the same problem still persists. Wrote complaint to RE support team. Don’t know what happens next and how this life threatening issue will be rectified!!

My Abs light has been staying on constantly after riding for a while. Seems like it's triggered by the heat. It would not come on during the winter months. But now that summer is here I have noticed the light come on and stay on, meaning there is abs fault, when I brake hard the abs is not activated, and rear wheel locks up. When I let the bike rest, cool down, the light goes off and abs works like normal.

I am somewhere around same height. I own an Interceptor 650. I have used the bike for normal commute in Bangalore. From my experience, you can comfortably drive the bike in most conditions. I do not have experience in driving in uneven conditions much - but in traffic and in normal road conditions - it is a very comfortable drive. I suggest you to go for it, if you like the style and the comfort the bike offers.

Use boots plus change seat to lowprofile touring GT seats gives you easy reach to the ground for a 5ft 4' rider .Lower suspension settings at the rear and in extreme cases change rims to a 17' will do the job .That's a lot of mod but it's worth the effort .

I have slipped disc and tail bone/sciatic pains .. you know how bad it can get. But I can tell you, on a normal day the Interceptor has never caused any issues or never till date have I had any issues because of the seating position on the Interceptor. I can't speak for Himalayan, I am sure it's meant for touring and expect that to be equally comfortable or more. With Interceptor, you cant go wrong that much I could tell trust me.

The Interceptor 650 will marginally have a better seating posture than the Himalayan and hence should give less back pain.But eventually it depends on whether you will utilise the motorcycle for city rides for which Interceptor is best or for off roading for which Himalayan is best.Hope this helps! Happy riding!
