I am sure you are going to love this bike. The black finish looks good, and it has some nice options on it, maybe some heated grips will be nice for the winter. I had an Interceptor for two years and have Continental gt now and the engine matches the bike perfectly, I have some aftermarket pipes and they make the bike sound superb.

Love from India....yes both Interceptor and Super meteor are our best Indian bikes, quality improvement can be felt, dependable and smooth ride is guaranteed, one can meditate while on ride ..😊

It's those "funny noises" and other quirks that set it apart. The sound of that double thumper is indeed pleasant and not overbearing. Great first impression report. Very much looking forward to your full review. 🙂Cheers.

I've owned my Interceptor two years from New now, And I love it, I believe your Interceptor has a Touring Seat on, which makes it slightly higher, But a bit more comfortable, I've fitted one on mine, I also have a Hunter 350 for winter and all year round riding, I love that too,. Cheers Paul 👍

Dont think it's a touring seat? I put one on my interceptor and it is flat at the front and rises at the back - kind of two tier. Also with the touring seat you have a fitting for a seat cowl - a hole on each side on the last third of the seat. It is supposed to give it the cafe racer look, particularly when used on the GT?

@@ultimateoutdoors4659 The one on this video Is the Royal Enfield Touring seat, Distinctive by the white stripe on the back.

The 'chill-factor' on a bike brings the temp down even-more . I went hunting for one of these (GT650-version) after following the development from Day-1 , any CEO that rides and makes his entire Development-Team ride , is taking things to the next-level . Nice-flat-torque-curve and Harris-Performance-frame make-for a good combination . Across-the-ditch from us (Australia) they drag-race these-bikes , taking them out close-to 1000cc and they don't shit-themselves, very-strong-engines . I ended-up with a W650, not the RE but I'm sure one will come-along eventually (love the-one your-with and all-that ) . Been-riding since the 70's , had many fast-bikes but the Modern-classics capture the-purity of motorcycling for me . Dave nz

Tomboy Royal Enfield is making some really nice 650cc motorcycles. The Interceptor is very Triumph Bonneville styled and the Continental GT is very Triumph Thruxton styled. They are Fantastic for being perfect commuter motorcycles with style. I love them. The bike fits you perfectly! Very nice review and very relaxing to watch. Please keep the videos coming ! Ride SAFE and BE safe Lady! 👍👍🌹

They , along-with the W650 , pre-dated the Triumph 'retro's' and possibly was the-reason Triumph entered that market....so it's almost the-other-way around.. Triumph looks like-them (the W650 is Truly an old-school 360-degree parallel-twin that Out-Triumphs the Triumph ) Dave nz

I had my intersepter for 4 year's all I do is service it No modifications just added back rack and saddle bags top bag every time I go out on it it's brilliant even now even motorways keeps up with the traffic no problem I liked the video 👍

The useable torque on the RE 650 is very good for the streat. 😊

I’ll be trading in my Hunter 350 for one of these as soon as they hit the USA - I really like the blacked out engine and exhaust of this version - Hoping it makes it here by early 2024 - Thanks for sharing your thoughts! Enjoy & ride safe!

Nice video despite cold weather,Interceptor 650 is a great modern Classic motorbike,im the owner of a customized one and I can tell you that Interceptor is the definition,the Spirit of motorbike! I would like to see another video later in spring or summer where you can enjoy more your trip!!👍

I love the stance and color of the bike. Lately I've been on a Royal Enfield research venture and I so want one !

Thinking of an interceptor as next bike so your review was helpful. Great to see reviews on roads I know in my area that I get out on sunny days. Great filming and very stylish. Stay safe

This is a nice video. A new bike and a chilly ride to the coast and still you sparkle with enthusiasm. Air cooled engines give off more mechanical noises than water cooled engines. Maybe that's why Harley owners like loud exhausts. I wouldn't buy a bike with spoked wheels but now the Enfield has alloy wheels.......

Great review. And a lovely view on Mersea on the beach with the sunsetting. As a 125 rider on Mersea most local riders say hello to other riders, no matter what they are on. Look forward to seeing more of Mersea on your vlogs.

👁️ ... something beginning with : RE!! I'm a sucker for twin dials and that parallel twin engine. This is very Speed Twin like and probably why I like it so much 👍

I bought the same Interceptor Black Ray in June of this year. Really satisfied with the bike.

Love the colour! Wanted one for ages but went adv first bike.

The last time indicators fitted so well on a bike was the BMW /5 series. Those indicators with the slim alu-housing are perfect, but only on the REs

After many British bikes it feels very familiar and everything is in the right place apart from the gear pedal . I really like mine and feel they did a good job on this model .

Thanks for the review. The Interceptor looks a better bike than I'd have believed. I'll look out for future reviews/reports from you.

I have been waiting for months to see you review this wonderful bike ,,,love the Interceptor ,,,so looking forward to your future Interceptor reviews ,thanks Dee

J’ai vraiment aimé cet essai, vous avez raison, elle est très jolie et le son est magnifique, je l’ai testé aussi ça me donne envie je suis pas trop décidé pour l’instant j’hésite avec meteor ou interceptor , ou Triumph street 900 , mais avec votre essai très professionnel, comme d’habitude, sûrement je vais faire un autre essai pour la tester encore, si un jour on se croise je vous dis bonjour

they are popular for same reason as Mcdonalds, cheap but very average food...

Love the first review comments was thinking about getting one of these bikes, if you can like a bike this much in winter it will surely but great in the summer months will see what you think in your long term review ride safe😊

You are going to love it, they get better and better. The weather gets better too lol

just like my cloths and hair style ....keep something long enough and it will came back to fashion ...... an air cooled 650 twin is the latest thing.....who would have thought it!!! glad i kept my XS 650 on the road this past 27 years.... this bike does look good though .....BT 46 F tyres are the way forward next though for this bike .

She's a real beauty , I Pass now my A2 Li here in Belgium . The Interceptor 650 Is my favoritte

lovely bikes, had trouble with my footpegs, maybe its my leg/feet combination, biggest issue was sometimes changing gears, but loved everything else about it. I have its brother, the Rocker Red 650GT, gear changing on that, perfect. And same gorgeous engine. Anyway, love REs, next I'll trade my Tiger 800 XCA (2014) in on the new Himalayan when its available. Keep up the reviews! Love your sportster, I had a 1200 Roadster from 2016, best stock sportster ever. But I can't justify 3 bikes 😂

@tomboy_a_bit 1.75M translates roughly to 5.7½ Feet. With that out of the way, loved your review, you ride maturely and nothing over the top. As an Interceptor owner (Barcelona Blue) I totally reflect your thoughts. The metallic clanging of the simple twin mill and that mild burble from the stock pipes is music to my ears. There may be far superior bikes than the Interceptor but what it has is soul and charm. Something that draws a second look from other people. Many people walk past a Ninja 650 or a HondaCB650F (both of which my friends own) but when they see my motorcycle, they always pause for a look, a nod or a small chat. I got one for close to £3600 since I live in India and at that price nothing even comes close though Triumph has some pretty neat Speed400 and Scrambler400 options (though both are single cylinders). Once you hear that 270° Parallel Twin, singles dont sound as alluring. Much love and respect from India. God Bless!

very tempted to get this as a second bike, especially as its as you say a little 'scramblery'. Nice detailed review.

Hello Tomboy a bit, an interesting comparison would be the Triumph 650 c.c. Bonneville air cooled, the B.S.A. 650 c.c. Lightning, the Yamaha XS-1 650c.c. and the Royal Enfield 650 c.c. Interceptor. Also, the Royal Enfield 650 c.c. would be an excellent engine choice for the Rickman Metisse.

love this RE interceptor.. the delete crome version.. because i'm the black lover + classic big bike.. thanks for this video.. i like~

I am from INDIA and I loved this bike.

It's a lovely bike would be a great City commuter especially with those bags. has roughly the same horsepower and torque as my iron 83

Nice . Your little hands not too little to feel the finesse. Good video. Bike is from our country, thanks, feeling proud.

Royal Enfield Interceptor and Continental 2019 models will become classics in years to come.

I almost bought one of those it's a very reliable bike but I have one bike that's enough for now ,Great video thanks.

Might be time for another collaboration with Tony (Man Cave Moto) as he has had a Royal Enfield Interceptor for some time now 😉👍.

I really enjoy your videos it would be fun if you did some premieres sometimes With the live chat

I got the Black Ray just last week while I'm currently working abroad. I'm thrilled because next month, I have a planned solo trip in South India covering approximately 2000 kilometres. only concern about this bike is its weight, and I'm uncertain about how I'll be able to handle it.

I really fancy the shotgun version looks really nice but not sure if its out yet.

My gripe is the tyres. Not a great selection and I don't have a lot of confidence in the "CEAT Zoom" tyres that came with the bike. The suspension needs work too... but I am that guy who fusses with things like that. One other thing... The bike is a middle-aged man magnet! I can't go anywhere and do anything after I get off the bike without some guy tracking me down and telling me about when he had a Triumph in the good ol' days. If this happens to you say "It's fuel-injected", while they are dazed and confused you can make you getaway. I'm not used to being a celebrity and it is probably the single most difficult thing to get used to about the bike.

I would like to have this bike and a Triumph T100 together in my garage to test ride, and compare them both..., but unfortunately, my name is not Dei or tomboy_a_bit ! This one is very attractive in this colour scheme, and looks more expensive than it is.

I'm interested in what type of video/audio equipment you used. The video and audio are excellent, as are your comments. The riding position seems a bit more upright than my Triumph T100. It would be great if my handlebars were more like the ones on your Interceptor.

Love the bike but I'm just not a fan of the black cases and rims. Much prefer polished alloy. I've got a Continental GT 650 and the polished alloy cases look far better in my opinion but they're a pain to keep shiny. At least the black engine on yours just needs a wash when it's dirty and easier therefore to look after.

1:38 You're 6'9 ? Damn, that bike must be a huge one then !

Pretty Ride, Pretty Weather, Pretty Girl.

Try GT650 by RE. That in cafe racer. Unlike interceptor has same specification but this is cruiser bike and GT is cafe racer 😊

Not for me way too plain , but I'm a fan of Japanese crochet rockets

# i think an RE Interceptor 650 in Ray Black is a bike for your garage. 🏁👍

Wait for few days, it will start showing its original nature of troubling owners 😂

U should put 43mm usd forks suspensions in front , the only problem in this bike will get solved , Handle wobling,,,

Why has nobody noticed the noise? Gear whine, squeaky. When she starts it especially strange
