Interceptor Pillion Comfort - Bad back seat
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 мар 2019
- We took the Interceptor for a ride of about 150 kms on Highways, Broken Tarmac and little off road along with a Pillion with full luggage system to understand how is the comfort at the back seat of the Interceptor. And the results were Negative.

Friends now I am at the seat customisation shop... Stay tuned soon u will see the mods...
People who are looking for Ride on Air here it is amzn.to/2TyiGXk
Bulu. That seat sucks. I rode it extensively when RE was in Goa last year. That seat deterred me from buying it.
An RE 350/500 style seat might be a good design to start with from an ergonomics point of view. How about a bonnie styled seat.
@@blue_rackham yes yes buddy doing something like that
Sir mu be Odisha ra bbsr ra please please please sir reply
You should’ve gone for the accessory touring seat and you need to make a video on the preload suspension setting I’ve been looking for a video for quite some time
V Good Detailed vlog on seating and suspension setup. Hope customised seats would solve the problem for the pillon. Waiting for your post mod review of the same.
Good video Bulu, your review is indeed unique and really appreciated mate.
Here’s what I got from the video 😎
- Handle bar uncomfortable.
- suspension is soft & bouncy.
- seat isn’t good for touring, too soft.
- pillion comfort is below average.
- peg position is bad for rider & pillion.
- Mirrors aren’t good enough.
I’m wondering if RE forgot about ergonomics but while they were building this bike.
Good honest review sir.. Really appreciate ur feedback. But my only question is to Royal Enfield is... When you tubers can find out the negatives so easily what are their foolish engineers getting paid for. Why do they want to charge so much money for a faulty product. As u mentioned sir.. The seat has a big problem. I'm not a professional biker or a youtuber but can just make out from the looks itself that it's not a bike for 2 people. The footpeg positioning, the handle bar...so many problems.. Is it really worth spending so much additional money after spending 3.25 lakhs on road cost and that too for what.. Such a substandard quality product. I really don't understand why people r so crazy for royal Enfield. Just to show off status or what. Anyways. ...really an honest review by you sir. Keep up the good work. All the best to u.
Perfect post Vinay...all RE bikes are substandard...if u have money spend on good quality bikes or on companies who are willing to improve not like RE
@@abhijeetdabhade7893 I wud never go for a RE. If I had to choose a bike I wud love to go for the Mahindra Mojo. I know it's not a competitor to the 650, but I think Mahindra have done a fabulous job on that product. Every bit of it is premium. The fit n finish is awesome and however hard you push it there's not even a hint of vibration. Hats off to Mahindra engineers for giving such a refined engine and the exhaust is just too good. Sadly it's not doing very well in India and I think in the coming years they might stop the production too... But I wud give it 5 stars for such a brilliant product and for the perfect engineering. Even it's pillion seat is not comfortable at all, but still as a product it's brilliant. It's just my opinion.. Don't quote me if I'm wrong. 😊
Thanks a lot bulu bhai I m feeling blessed after watching this video 👍
Been a while watching it videos Bhai... It editing skills have improved a lot....👍👍
Many many thanks for the video. I have just changed my mind. Canceling my booking for Interceptor and going for Himalayans. According to my requirement, I have to give importance to pillion comfort. Otherwise, there is nothing wrong with Interceptor. Rigorous modifications (seat height, straight silencer etc) may convert the Interceptor as pillion friendly but that will destroy the originality of the bike. Since I am not a frequent tourer, I think 400CC Himalayan will be enough for me compared to my current Bajaj Avenger 220.
No compromise with comfort whatever it may be 🤨and Joy Jagannath bulu vai 🙌🙌🙌🙌
Very informative Bulu bhai...thanks
Bulu bhai good to see u moving faster in subscribe count. go on with daily content u can be fast
Yes... Even I experienced all that you have mentioned Bro. Whats the way to modify the footrest to move little forward. For both rider and pillion footrest.??
Bulu bhai side view mirrors aapne Kon sa lagaya hai..I need for my interceptor..as in stock right mirror is not correct in view
hello bulu did u get any false neutral on this bike?
Bullu bhai non stop traveling love ur energy
Bulu bhai..mera TBX 350 suspension is also very bouncy, please let me know when you are changing the suspension set up, I want to know how it works.
You can weld additional footsteps for pillion on the rod a little further.... Fold it when not in use and open it when using it
Bulu also let know ur feedback on tyres... especially the rear one...I somehow feel wobbling when tyres go in any small cracks on roads..also what solution for the handle bar..I don't like lean on it ...await ur revert bro...thx aks
Bulu Bhai ..see I saddle seat like Thunderbird or avenger can be fitted on interceptor.? May be it will enhance the look also besides the comfort on long distances
bulu bhai.. does interceptor's engine clutter's below 2000 rpm, as in himalyan and what about the seating comfort and suspension as compared to himalyan?
Hopefully himalayan 650 would solve the issue of pillion comfort ✌️😀
There's no himalayan 650 coming, not even next 5yrs
@@vickeysingh2044 looks like it man!
No test mules spotted, no news of it anywhere
Bulu Bhai... Interceptor pe after market allows + tubeless Tyre available h market me?
Motul 300V Square 10w-50 experience and can i use in gixxer 155cc bike ??
I told the dealer of my nearby showroom on the day of the launch that the twins will be uncomfortable for longer rides. If RE launches the Classic styled bike with this engine, nothing will be better than that. I love my RE Stealth Black 500's ergonomics, seating position and that with this 650cc engine will be pure bliss. Hopefully RE can try and do that.
Bulu Bhai I remembered u r past video.
Booking cancelled interseptor 650cc
Keep it up sir 🤘🤘🤘
Where did you get the mirrors from? thanks.
I hope you are following the run-in precautions and not over-speeding or over reving the engine. High heat produced due to excessive friction on new engine parts can cause them to warp. So more than the speed, concentrate on engine rpm. Avoid over enthusiastic use of throttle. Ensure that you are in the right gear at the right speed. 2000 km of running in will be over before you know it. You have just bought one of the best built bikes. I personally feel its not a long touring bike and specially with a pillion...and also this bike is not meant for off roading..
Strell ♥
I found it very odd for even rider so cancelled the booking. Seat and suspension is very low grade. Foot pegs, exhaust are total afterthought.
Vai jaldi se mod karo ... Ap ki vlog se bohot kuchh sikhn ko milta hay
Have been using a GT since 2016, and also a magnetic tank bag. The magnets of the tank bag have NO effect on the performance of the fuel pump. Whoever made those allegations to you about the ill-effect of tank bag on the GT fuel pump has no clue about what he/she is saying. The magnets of the tank bag, though strong don't have enough magnetic field so as to effect the magnets of the pump motor located in the tank. Just, writing this, since you have a good number of subscribers, and people shouldn't get incorrect information. BTW, I'm a ardent follower of your videos.✌️👍
A GT 650?😒😒😒.............hope u know he is referring to the 650 twins here........ur GT 535 not = GT 650
@@sathiadev6447 Yes, I know. But, my comments on effect of tank bag magnets on the fuel pump still holds. :)
@@mariner_biker74 Are u speaking from experience of owning and riding a 650 with a magnetic tank bag?(im not saying the problem exists....but saying the problem doesn't exist is wrong)if the answer to the question is yes/no ,u wait for others to share their experience and comment on this ,all machinery can have unexpected annoyances and problems.....one cannot outright claim 'so and so' problem does not exist ever....thank u for sharing ur thoughts on the gt535 not having this problem....and for the explaining the physics behind how this problem cannot exists (which obviously applies to all bikes acc to u )
Your audio is heard in only one ear piece for sometimes, when music is played along with mic audio is also there.
Nice video
What about magnetic tank beg on interceptor 650 ?
Does changing of handlebar voids the warranty?
Do keep us posted with the new seat mod
Bro am planing to buy a new bike next month..my budget is around 1.40 k to 1.60 k..pls suggest which bike to buy
I too love long rides ..can ns 200 make it or should I go for other bike..pls help bro
.
Side mirror u use bro??
Which camera using for helmet
What's the problem with handlebar you are facing? For me, I'm 6'1 and still I feel I've to bend a little forward and stretch out, and on turns.. Stretching on the outer arm is too much, uncomfortable a bit. Not sure how guys with standard height are managing. It is sort of deal breaker for long rides.
which bike is better for pillion to tour more than 500 km
aapke mic mai problem hai ek speaker mai awaz aa raha hai dusre mai nahi
Hi bulu baiya love from Tamilnadu✌️😊
Go for RD 350 handlebar for less vibrations and relax sitting posture
Hi Bulu Bhai, you can take a look for custom foot pegs from bikenbiker.
Bulu Brother,
Simple question to you,
I hope you answered it appropriately this is what I expect from you,
1:inceptor is good over all and Dominar,
Thank you in advance.
First one again to watch it and like it ☺️
I can literally hear the buyer's remorse in this video lol
Lol MATLAB Kuch bhi ho desh ke brand ko hate karna hi hai.
Typical LIBRANDOO
You are very familiar to me because I am also from odisha

I've the same helmet in white instead of orange :D
Bulu bhai..thoda mic dekh Lena..hope placement is not properly done..
Haan .... Mere phone mein bhi issue aa rha hai...piche 2-3 video se
Bro try adding tank grips
Why don't you try your ride on air seat on interceptor ??
The seat of the bike is not so good for a little big persons
I am 6.2 and more than 105kg.
I prefer some more spungy and big seat in this bike...
same here 👍
It is odd for the rider as well , odd footpegs position and rider triangle.
Hi sir my name is mohd sadiq ahmed
Sir meray pass thunder bird 350x bike hai us bike may vibrastion issue bhoot ziyada hai
Kay interceptor may vibratiob ka koi issue hai agar hum 120 ki speed may bike ku long drive may chalaye to
Mai intercepter bike lenay ka plan kar rha ho
Ekdum vibration nahi hai
Ok thanks sir
Hiii bulu this is Manikanta from Sweden......
Interceptor has the worst pillion leg position...the leg pegs are higher to accommodate angled silencer which makes extreme discomfort for legs of pillion...RE has a long road to learn basic bike making etiquettes.... They just work on one thing in every new model...here in Interceptor they just worked on high capacity engine n left other departments for customers to suffer
I agree , the bike also requires a full backrest
Really nice , great for long drive, first viewer 🤘
Ur handle bar is cross not in proper condition
Bhi aap leh ja rha ho
In my test ride I realised that interceptor is jumping a lot unlike gt... even if we make the suspension set up hard I got it will be stable as gt... also riding comfort is much better on gt (not sure of long rides as I just took 8-10 kms
Which will be better dominar 400 or re 650 ?
Both are great bikes on their respective price points......
In terms of comfort , dominar is way ahed
Lights from the versys 650....and the mirrors as well....next would be engine then chassis....just joking but this machine needs retro looking ancillaries......cheers ride safe.
Expected
This guy is only explaining it as he was sitting behind 🙂
Can you make following modification:
1. Lower the silencer by inch or two
2. Lower the footrest by inch
3. Pull the handle bar towards you
4. Increase the seat cushion by inch!
May help pillion rider since footpegs will be down by inch.
Yes buddy already on it... Seat mod is done plz checkout recent video..
These small mods will make the Interceptor a great Bike
So... I need to literally change part by part after shelling 3 lac plus 😳
Nahi bhai bash thoda bahut.. tension mat lo
Hello bulu
Bro visit art of motorcycle. Best customisation
Odiya bhai
How is the pilion comfort compared to Dominar..
Dominar way better
@@BuluBiker wow thank you! Now nothing is gonna stop me from buying a Dominar.. :D
@@srikirangs lol
han bhaina hard karidio... suspension ta
the chassis is supposed to be put together by Harris performance How can they screw up placement of foot pegs. I rode continental gt and Interceptor back to back When i got on the Interceptor i felt uncomfortable and pain on the side of my ass.Pathetic . But love the engine.
Royal enfield should have made the exhaust like the RD350 not upswept which is not at all comfortable for the pillion. They should offer straight exhaust as add on with a lower rear footrest. Front footrest the rider will get used to even if it's not comfortable and oddly placed. But for pillion the rear footrest is a surely gonna demand knee replacement .
Bulu Bhai interceptor meh engine chir aur kuch accha Haii kih nahi...😂😂😂
Royal Enfield ko bahut sudhar kih jarurat Haii
Mainey bhi book ki hai yeah bike for touring purpose but after watching this I think I should must cancel my booking instead of taking interceptor I would go for triumph street twin which bit costlier but value for money
Triumph isn't just bit costlier, it is way more costlier than re, if you can afford ST then buy it.
It's not a touring bike bhai.. kya karteho yaar
Seems you will sell this in one year 🤣
And it's sold😂
Cancelled my booking...I don't want my pillion to curse me...
U can modify yr seat
@@SagarUdit footpegs are also a problem right?.
I am using dominar from 2 years for long distance,,, I booked 650 but cancelled
It's an OK ok type bike 😂
Thunderbird 500 is my choice .
Or ye interceptor not comfortable.
But i feel very comfortable on Interceptor 650 can't say about pillion. But seat is anyday better on Thunderbird
*helmet AC Kaha GAYA 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣* Garm ho gaya hoga
Ha ha Gopro lagaya na bhai.. so either one at a time
Cancelled the booking .
Bilu Bhai bike change kardo 🤔
Take vstrom 650 suzuki
U never read comment
This motorcycle looks good as it is .I am sure with all these modifications it's not gonna look like an intecptor Any more
Correct and thats what is going to happen. RE should have thought about these issues. Overall this bike is for solo riding and that too for short trips of under 400km.
Wrong buddy, no one would buy a 650 RE for short trips... 2nd if this bike was for a solo rider then the rear foot pegs should have not been there atall, plus the seat shouldn't be that long, it would have just been a short seat with a cowl.
So basically no bike is perfect, some or other mods are needed on every bikes.
Your language sounds like a mixture of Bengali and Assamese.

Jab itni sari issues hain to bike hi change kar do? This bike has so may complaints better to buy GT 650cc.
Himalayan 650 is the one this is completely useless
Horror bhai ? 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Saddle bags look pathetic and out of place
the seat is not good in intercepter
Bulu bhai, aapko handle bar nahi theek nahi Laga, seat comfortable nhi hai, suspension acha nahi Laga, mirror vibrates, itna saara modification...AAPNE BIKE PE PESE WASTE KIYA KYUN???!!!!, AAPKE PAAS TO VERSYS 650 THI NA?...why did you decide to buy a same displacement with lower power motorcycle?? PLEASE EXPLAIN EVERYONE...
10K kharch karne se ye saare peoblems fix ho jayega RE had it been the versys 50K kharch karna padtha even for small mods pe, and what you get is a torque engine, plus it is a royal enfield, I can get it fixed at every corner of India... I may not be able to service or fix the issues on my versys in anywhere other then bigger cities in India.
Therefore I selected a Royal Enfield.
@@BuluBiker oh...🤔
Everywhere there is some positive n some negative.. but good thing is we always have solutions...
At last ...At last ...At last the rear seat discomfort bcoz of footpegs
has been 1st hand experienced by u...I know Ur wife must be cursing u on the bouncy roads😂..My Into 650 pillion update after 45days of ownership "No one is
prepared to sit pillion"
Footpegs for rider and also for the pillion are not placed properly...Less thoughts have been given to this department...Rider can still manage but the pillion position is very discomforting and also the seat is horrible ..
@@Kamal67811 Agreed to the core
How can the engineers over look such a flaw & the test rides uploads by so many you tubers also did not mention it further strengthens that RE does a paid promo every time..Hope we r not made the "guinea pigs" just like the Himalayan.
@@biswanathmohapatra1836cost cutting
Also, my wife told a lot of heat is being emitted by the exhausts and the engine, something the rider doesn't feel. Also, looking at the proximity of the exhausts and the rear footpeg position, it is a dangerous place to be, just imagine if the shoe slips. No heat shields provided by RE unlike other motorcycles too. Why can't RE develop a complete motorcycle which has everything proper?
You will definetely sell this bike within next 8 to 9 months or max 1 year..Deep in your mind you must be regretting by buying this bike.. anyway.
Wrong buddy, I am really happy with the bike. I will still say RE has done a wonderful job with the bike. No bike is perfect, every bike has one or other demerits.
You plz stay tune to the channel and I will take this bike to so many places.
