Hey man, I know this isn’t directly related to the video, but I just wanted to say that discovering your channel has been one of the best things to happen to me on TH-cam. I came across an Instagram reel where you talked about the best accessories for the INT650, and at the time, I was thinking about getting a new motorcycle. That reel made me fall in love with the Interceptor. Fast forward to January, I finally got myself an Interceptor 650 in Canyon Red, and your channel has been a lifesaver ever since. From chain cleaning and engine buffing to mods, your content has been incredibly helpful every step of the way. Just wanted to say thanks for the amazing content. keep it up man!!
hey man, thanks for the information. As an interceptor owner who was very much influenced by you into getting one, your channel is a go to stop! btw, which boots are those? They look very cool
The washing issue which you mentioned,...i had the chance go meet murthaza junaid (a well known adv rider) and he also told the same. Never to wash the bike when it's hot as the water can evaporate and can mess up the electricals. Also some really good info in the vid, thank you for that 🙌
Oh I have met Muthuza! He is an amazing guy! Genuinely helpful and very down to earth. Loves to play pool and can speak several languages! Thank you for seeing the video and for commenting! 🙏🏽

@SrinivasGanesh, Thank you very much for the details. Really like the way you explain stuff in a systematic way. Others can get out of tough situations easily because of people like you. Kudos! 🙂
Really informative Srini.... I've stopped power wash for my motorcycle completely. Though there's this additional issue where the battery is losing its charge within a day or two. I got the RR-Unit replaced a year back and got a a new battery 6 months ago, so not really sure what's wrong. Will be visiting RE workshop to find what went wrong 🤔
My new Bear 650 is randomly cutting off on the road. Maybe, as you mentioned, it's because of the side stand sensor issue. I'll get it checked. Thanks, buddy
I'm facing the exact same issue with my Classic. Since it's a single-cylinder, it wouldn't start at all and without giving it a bit of throttle, and if I pull the clutch in while riding, it stalls. I've tried several things, including cleaning the throttle body, but the issue still comes up occasionally after riding a bit while its hot, or during cold starts in the morning, not always. I'll ask the technician to check the fuel injector too-maybe that'll help. This problem started around October 2023 during the heavy rains in Bangalore. Thanks, Srini!
Thank you so much, Shri, for making this video. I have an INT650 2023 model, and it’s currently running fine. I’ve done 3900 kms on this beautiful machine. However, I sometimes get annoyed by the "tik-tik" noise coming from the engine when it’s idling. The service center guys say it’s completely normal and there’s no issue with the bike. Should I be worried about this noise? Recently, I’ve also felt like my bike is giving less power at times. I’m not entirely sure if it’s a real issue, but is there a chance it could be related to the clutch plate? My bike is generally parked in my room, and I usually do a cold start every 15-20 days and ride it for about 15-20 kms. Since you have more experience with this bike, I’d really appreciate any suggestions or advice you could offer. Once again, thank you so much for making these videos. Really appreciate it! Love from Chhattisgarh.❤
Hi, thank you for watching my videos. That really helps me support the channel and make more videos. That sound you mention might be coming due to the exhaust headers being loose. Check for any wiggle on them. These will be the star shaped things on the front of the engine, just below the tank and the horn. Where exhausts start.
@@souravmj8667 😅 so far there is only wobbling, relay issue, RR unit replacing and lastly this. And I have made videos of these issues individually. They are there on the channel. Do check it out if you want to.
Had the same issue on my interceptor(2019-BS4). Found out it was a loose connector for the left injector, i cleaned it with contact cleaner and used some dielectric grease. Never had the issue since, bike is at 75000km now.
Uncle ji i faced an issue in my int650 yesterday I parked my bike bike for an hour or so and when I returned and turned on the ignition it didn't started and after that the power gave up it was like a bike without battery the speedo was dead after a while after I messed with the fuse it turned normal....
Am also facing the issue not the same missing issue i have done all the things you have done now i need to inspect this one injectors , the service centre guys are also not aware of these kind of things they don't know Actually how to do these things or how to find the solution the main solution got from service is this the manufacturing defect or maintain min fuel now i got other thing to check thanks for the information am waiting along time for this one video
Bhai please make a short on changing side stand censor … i got the side stand censor today and i need to change it by myself and i could not find any detailed video on how to remove it or chsnge sl
I won't be able to, as I mentioned in the video, a slight annoyance to changing the rear tyre from 130 to 150, there is no room to access the RR unit or the Side Stand Sensor. 😭
@@SrinivasGanesh bro I also need it , at least explain the side stand censor like how does it closes or opens the circuit , just show the censor and explain in brief how to disconnect the censor , where does the wiring lead to kinda …. Don’t remove but verbally showcase it bro ….
Decade of Owning a Royal Enfield Motorcycle up until Interceptor 650 Rule number 1 :- If your bike is even couple of years old with some mod's. NEVER TAKE IT TO A AUTHORIZED SERVICE STATION.
@ Dude, Half of them(Technicians) are nailed by the management to make you replace parts.. If you are lucky you do get good technicians at RE, you pay him on top of the Labor fee Perhaps get the work done. Create Repo, but for how long ? you are a influencer with 17k followers. They might probably do a better job out of the fear that their RE station will come under fire. For normal people '"Building Repo" that will not last for long.
@ Shhh they don't even know that I have a TH-cam Chanel. 😉 I'm just nice to them by asking about them, their education, making friends with them. I remember a very small gesture of getting frooti for them during summers back, in 2014, when I had my Classic 350. :)
Which part are you referring to? The fuel injector? I have mentioned its price in the description btw. Thank you for seeing the video and for commenting! 🙏🏽
@SrinivasGanesh I see. Well my purpose of buying comes with few constraints, let me try my best in short. (Taking in mind the Indian roads with a lot of patches and breaks) I want something to ride to office and a few couple of long tours in a year. This is what i felt after test rides : Interceptor - has the feeeeeellllll, the smile when you take the bike out but compromising the fuel and suspension. I would have to do few upgrades after buying. Himalayan 450 - will serve the purpose of city and highway ignoring the bad patches on road(great suspension). Is fuel efficient and more practical. But I didn't get the feel when riding it, the only thing stopping me from buying the 452 is the 650 feeling. Let me know your thoughts since you have owned, I hope atleast you can somewhat remove most part of the puzzle for me.
Woah! This is not common. I believe we are the rare ones who faced this issue. I hope your bike is running fine now. Thank you for commenting on the video.
In some petrol pumps, there will be water content in thier petrol and filling regularly from these pumps can also cause failure of injector and fuel pump... Always use high octane fuel xp95
@@ramvykkattil I have been using regular fuel for over 4 years and it has had no issues. Plus this was the issue on the electrical part of the fuel injector. (behind it) The pins behind it got corroded. I'm sure the fuel is okay, because these modern bikes can take fuel upto E20. Which is regular fuel. Else not many people can afford xp 95 and not may gas stations have that fuel too. they only have upto 91.
hahahah there is a part in the video which I edited out. And I am basically saying that My Interceptor 650 can turn into Hunter 350! Which I thought was way too cheesy. 😅
