@@sriharsha0406 Hey mate!! Yes, indeed it was a pure delight, getting up on the saddle and go to a place all alone, a place you have never visited before, experience the culture there and trying out the local cuisines!!
I got my dux delux gt a couple of weeks ago and was kinda worried if the riding stance might be too aggressive but suprising for a 5’10 guy like its really comfortable. Its super fun to ride in the city and hills only one thing I noticed was due to the clipons while going downhill your weight really comes on your hands but not something discomforting. Overall love the bike and love the headturns i get too
@@yedukrishna6603 it is fine for 20-30km then if they are taller than 5’5 might feel a little cramped. I have installed the cowl on my gt anyways but whenever i have had pillion they didn’t have any issues
LED lights are nothing in fog. The reviewers should stop advocating for such things. A good halogen light is way better than LEDs anyday. LED lights offers more spread which is actually dangerous for someone coming from the front.

No f***s will be given, and none will be taken, so don't make a fool of yourself in the comments section. The Interceptor/GT are a great pair of motorcycles. After test riding multiple times, and almost writing a check to get one, multiple times and only to change my mind at the last nick, something about these twins just doesn't cut it for me. It has the charm, bells and whistles for a twin, a fantastic and an overall tractable motor, but something about it just says this isn't a long term motorcycle. Being a guy that loves torquey motors and coming from 2015 390s, the 650 twins have great road hold, the weight of the machine definitely helps it to its advantage during crosswinds and overall stability which makes it a true highway champ. But as soon as you turn the keys off the motorcycle, and call it a day, the connect just isn't there. I am not comparing 650 to the 390 in any way shape or form, I am doing this primarily from a power and torque spec comparo, the Duke 390 does have it own share of flaws, but there is something to that 390 motor that the 650 will never have, being a twin, being torquey, being a great highway champ, it just doesn't have that "Damn what a ride it was" feel good factor. It's like you reach your place, hang the keys on the key holder and that's it. Just a parotta and beef curry ride, it just doesn't spice up things the way one would like it to be. Good to see Strell bring in the charm back to the old dog, narrate his observations in a clean and open way, I echo his comments and that's mostly what I'd felt and experienced when I rode the bike, for a little while. Nevertheless a decent machine to ride onto, definitely not a long term machine to hold onto. No wonder one sees lots of Interceptors/GTs up for grabs at cheap prices on used markets, should say something.
Have you tried cb300r ? What is your opinion on that bike . I am looking to buy either 390 or interceptor or cb300r My heart says go for cb300r but my mind is not convinced . Basically I am confused between these 3 bikes
@Strell a question, i have riden a scooter for the past 3 years and have been saving up for a bike, do u think i can handle the gt as a beginner? ik its not appropriate but GOD I LUV THAT BIKE
You didn't ask me but I'll tell anyway, don't buy anything but a bike with atleast 40bhp other bikes are just not worth it IMO. If your budget doesn't allow just save up and get a big bike you can handle it for sure
It will not be easy but it's doable. Bike is not scary like ktm 390. It has friendly power delivery. I think you can go for it but before going for it just ride some different bikes( from friends or relative). Basic knowledge of gears will do the job. With in 10-15 days you will get used to.
My opinion : If you guys are buying a bike for around 3.5 lakhs Duke 390 is the best choice 2nd interceptor. If you can find a very well maintained used one 2017/2018 and newer it offers much better value.
Totally different bikes it's gonna be, same engine but different overall character and style, if you want sporty handling faster machine then gt, if you want laid back slow riding cruiser than Shotgun it the way.
What is the risk of overheating in this motorcycle? Since there is no heat gauge, how do we know wheather the engine is overheating in traffic or riding conditions. Is there any failsafe measures in the ecu to prevent overheating?...
Bro how to know when the bike hits a petrol reserve and when the petrol signals to E and it's starts blinking does it mean I need to refill or we just hit the petrol reserve.. please help me out on this
Why Interceptor 650 is cheaper than Continental GT 650, If it was only about the handle and seat then the price could be a marginal change but why there is such a big leap of price change? I like interceptor but since Continental GT is more expensive I wonder what could be that headturner reason? Help me out on this confusion?
Hey strell bro :) I have one doubt :- the continental gt coast 3.5 lakhs (on road ) Do you think the price is high. Is it value for money...? I know the problem's of royal Enfield bikes😂 rusting vibration etcetc. If i buy this continental gt in future will tears pour from my eyes🥺. As a person who knows a lot about bikes i want to know your suggestions. I relly love honda 650R ( the best bike in india @ 600cc) but i dont need a sports bike. i love to ride at a 30 - 40 km/hr speed range 😌 Now i am using a honda hornet 2019 model.
I have a GT 650. Its absolutely a smooth bike with power. The probs that I faced are wobbling issue at higher speeds, rusting in some parts, gets heated up too much in traffic nd you can burn ur skin easily if you dont wear full jeans. The fuel meter is not accurate. Makes u tired in traffic. But the bike is lovely to ride nd its fun. The sound is so soothing also.
I don't recommend this bike for city users and college kids u guys go with rr 310 . Pros u guys know there are lot let tell cons 1. Heavy 2. Low Mileage 3. Heating 4. Spoke wheels 5. Maintainace is pricy 4.7l engine oil 6.wobbling 7.basically anti street bike . Sunday is gonna be fun Touring too Alternatives 1.rr 310 2.duke 390
@@sanjeevbravo121 your friend should have known that a 650cc costs more than avg 300 cc to service and maintain. Conti GT isn't meant for everyone, only if you have enough financial capability to maintain this bike properly, this bike will serve you for decades.
Absolutely no issues with long rides, but you gotta go for the touring seat. Have recently munched 2100 km in 4 days and riding it is a pure pleasure…

One of the cleanest review I have ever seen on GT 650. Good one👍
LED lights are nothing in fog. The reviewers should stop advocating for such things. A good halogen light is way better than LEDs anyday. LED lights offers more spread which is actually dangerous for someone coming from the front.
👍👍👍👍🙏
Exactly, it irritate me everytime.
LED also spoils the 60's classic design of GT
Yeah. When people think of India, Fog is what comes to mind. (Gut wrenching sarcasm)
Can't wait for Classic 650... especially after seeing the leaks ❤️ looks 🔥
Can you share link to it ? I haven't come across it yet
Looks like Harley
My dream bike 💖
Thanks for reviewing this one ☺️
thank you for posting a video at this time......your video is just tranquillising my bad day!!!!!!! THANKYOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
Owning a GT 650 for almost 2.5 years, the main issue I faced is the instability at 130+ kmph speed due to its tyres.
How do you find it for long distance riding and touring?
They could have given better tyre 😜
Well you can swap wheels to 17inchers and get good Road based tyres. Go with Metzellar M5 and you are golden 🏂
@@ItzClassico swapping to 17” will decrease the ground clearance
Ya also the handle starts wobbling around 80

Hi bro
I am very much confused between Rocker Red and Mr. Clean. Which color will you suggest and why?
