Hi everyone, i want to share my experience with the interceptor wobble. I bought it used at 5300km, and it was my first bike. In the beginning i was feeling a bit of movement in the handlebar, at various speeds, usually between 3k and 4k rpm.
Sice i was a new rider, I wasn't sure if it was me imagining it, or if the bike really had a problem. As time passed, i was more and more convinced something was off.
I did some test in the freeway and on normal roads, without hands, and the handlebar was shaking most of the times. The feeling was just not good, and once it even wobbled with hands on. After looking online, i decided to replace the stock tyres. They were not consumed, they had 7300km and 4 years of life. I hoped it was just that and not some bike defect. After putting on a pair of bridgeston bt46, the wobble was completely gone. It feels so much better.
SInce it's a very discussed topic, i wanted to share my experience. I hope it may help someone.
Hi all, I’m a Bullet 350 BS4 UCE owner from Bengaluru, and I’m planning to convert my bike into a scrambler with features like a detachable pillion seat that doubles as a luggage rack. I’m looking for reliable workshops or mechanics who specialize in Royal Enfield customizations and a little bit in budget too😬
Mechanical Problems I face with my bullet bs4 is petrol overflow and a decreased intial pull, basically performance is very low, and i also recently upgraded the clutch assembly to 500cc.
Can anyone recommend places in Bengaluru known for quality work? Personal experiences with workshops, pricing info, or any tips would be greatly appreciated!
Hi Everyone, I was thinking of changing the stock suspension on my Hunter 350. Can anyone suggest some good suspension and your personal review?
Also, wanted to know whether the same can be done at RE Service Center or do I need to get it done from local mechanic. Also, will it affect the warranty?
I absolutely love the interceptor 650, the parallel twin sound and also because there’s a whole lot more i can do with this bike. But i am mostly going to ride it in the city 35 km round trip -2 days in a week. I want to get the inti but i feel speed is a better choice overall. I am still inclined towards inti Almost Convinced to buy the interceptor but just need a little more convincing. Please help
I tried scrambler 400x, i am 5’9 and i did not flat foot it but because i will ride it mostly in the city only Sunday rides etc for long rides so i removed it from my options Edit- if anybody of you know about the crash guard/engine guard, should i go with a moto torque engine guard and ditch the royal enfield one
It’s a classic 500 it was working fine morning when i took it for re fueling
Upgrading from a 125CC to this beast is absolutely phenomenal
Since the int/gt chain doesn’t come with master link, is it fine if i remove a link and replace it with a master link?(clip type)
If the gt650 120yrs edition fuel tank gets damaged and you have no other option to replace it do the RE SERVICE CENTER give the same tank or the regular tank
Can anyone tell why does it started to sound like this
Up and about on my interceptor for a relaxed riden in the western part of Slovenija.
Joined the club and bought a Himmy yesterday. The fuel gauge will go between being correct to this position throughout the day.
Any 411 owners out there able to confirm if this will be fuel sensor or is it an issue with the physical dial itself?!
Many thanks!
I know the 600cc is already in the market, but many of my friends, who are familiar with my lifestyle and spending habits, say it's not the right fit for me.
I got my motorcycle's first free service and it costed me 1300+ (INR) even though it was supposed to be free.
I paid and got my service done because I didn't know better. However, I feel like I was duped into paying for stuff that was not necessary.
I am requesting you fine folk to please help me understand and know better if it was normal.
Also, what should I keep in mind while getting the second service done schedule this week.
Machine: Meteor 350 Stellar State: Delhi/NCR

Edit: Thank you all for your thoughts. It seems everything checks out. There wasn't any additional charges than the norm.
Only everything is costly these days, lol.
Whilst exploring the countryside my bikes clutch wire broke , I rode around 30 km till a town named Khopoli, it was an adventure riding the motorcycle without clutch.
Hello everyone, I am located in Australia and just got my learners license. I love the look of both the Hunter and the Guerilla as a first bike. Is the 350 going to be enough grunt for a everyday commuter/weekender or will the Guerilla be a better choice as it has more power to grow into? Any help will be great.
I am based in India. I have been riding my Classic 350 Reborn for the past 2 years. I had reduced the height by cutting the foam from the local vendor but I feel I need to adjust it a bit more but cutting more will affect the seat cushioning. Is there any other option???
It's considerably flatter than even the one that used to come with the thunderbird X. The seating position doesn't change much due to the handlebar risers that add an inch and a half to the height of the flattish bar. However, it's wider and it's easily noticeable to the rider, the viewer, not so much. I did take a video of myself to see how it looks while riding. The seating position is changed very slightly, need to learn into the bar now, strains the lower back a little during longer rides. Around the city, not so much.
Just the beginning of the many mods I have in my mind on this bike.
Brand - Moto Torque. I rode about 30 kilometers on it, and the city handling was much better. The palm pain was gone too! I was putting more weight on the handlebars without the risers, which caused the pain.
Bought pre owned, A year back Dec 2023 with 4K on milo. Using for daily office commute in Pune. Average mileage in city 8 liters for 125 km max . Composed riding with Occasional burst to speed. Recently my speedometer went haywire , dropping to zero or non functioning when accelerating, but needle flips with engine breaking. Pleasant surprise is the speedo fixed itself after a while and now shows no sign of malfunctioning. And recently the other day while getting back from office one cold night , engine stopped multiple times but I was able to restart while on role . Funny ! that never happened again . Fingers crossed . I love the ride ! Though I wished if my bull shook its head bit less 😊 while charging ahead .
