Wobbling Issue and Solution and Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650

  • Finally. After months of trying and documenting, I've finally managed to find solutions to this 'wobbling of front tyre' for the Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650.
    I've tried to cover all the possible solutions that can help solve it. If there are anymore solutions beside these then please do let me know, I will cover those in the future videos.
    I would like to point out that the issue could be solved by just changing the tyres.
    (solution 5) However if you are have installed new rubbers and are still facing this issue, then you might want to try the other solutions.
    The tyres that I have are dual compound and are from the brand Timsun.
    I got them from Torque Block.
    torqueblock.com
    Tyre Profile
    Front - 100/90/18 and Rear 150/70/18 (this is how it should have come from the factory in my opinion)
    I'd like to thank ‪@speedmonksperformancecentr4332‬ for helping me with the installation.

    I own a 2019 RE Interceptor, one of the earliest models since its launch in Nov 2018. Purchased in Jan 2019, it initially had a wobbling issue above 100 kmph. Surprisingly, a simple fix resolved it. A puncture led me to a local tyre shop, where I discovered the tube was incorrect for an 18-inch rim, likely intended for a Honda Unicorn or Shine. Changing to the correct size tube eradicated the wobble, even at speeds of 160 kmph. Check your front tube size - it should be 100/90/18.

    I've test driven continental gt and interceptor too, and faced this issue in both of them, fews years back and shared this with showroom owner as well, but nobody looked at this seriously and eventually i never got a chance to make my mind in buying this bike. But thanks to you, now i can look forward to it. Thank you.

      Thank you so much for sharing this valuable feedback. The Interceptor 650 now comes with Ceat Tyres, but they are not tubeless. Otherwise I’d have gone with them only.
      Sad that people at RE showrooms will not look into this as their main goal is always going to be sales. Best to write to RE directly and sharing video feedback. I’ll try this once and address this issue.

  • @daveinwla6360
    @daveinwla6360 2 года назад +64

    Questions come to mind:
    1) Did you check the balance of both wheels? The tires might have had uneven mass distribution, which manifested in a wobble as the rubber gradually wore down.
    2) Did you check the lateral runout of both wheels with a dial indicator? The tire may have gotten distorted with wear, or the rims may have gone non-planar or non-perpendicular with the axis of rotation.
    3) Did you check the radial runout of both wheels with a dial indicator? The over-tightening of a spoke points to this having been a problem the mechanic found.
    4) Was the steering quicker when you went to tubeless tires?

Was it easier to initiate and/or complete a turn? Did the front wheel follow road bumps better, i.e. with less time spent airborne or unloaded?

    Taking my Intercetor in this week to have a new ECU fitted under Warrantee. The bike cuts-out randomly. The dealer has reflashed the original ECU twice and each time assured me all was fine, but it wasn't. There's loads on the internet about fuel relays and the huge amount of dielectric grease on the connectors, but the dealer seems certain it's the ECU itself. Thank god for the Warrantee. Bet the ECU is worth as much as the rest of the bike put together!

    I own an interceptor 2022 model, I actually bought it after watching your videos Sri, even this one. I didn't experience any wobbling issues on my interceptor but now after 5000kms I am having it on my bike as well, I have the stock ceat tyres installed, I have reported it to Re service center and they weren't able to do anything about it as well. I do like these ceat tyres.. their grip and everything is pretty good but after watching this video again I think ill change it after a couple of thousand kilometres or so because this wobbling issue is very irritating

      I made a mistake. I am actually running 17 rear and 18 front. I swapped the rear rim to the front for the new wider profile tyre and replaced the rear with a Racing Boy 17" 4.50 rim.
      Don't ask me why i did that i am new to motorcycles(clueless) and this is a common and popular mod amongst the twin riders here in Thailand so I went along with it. Lol. Good thing is, it turned out good(beginner's luck lol).
      Bike feels more eager to lean and those mt60rs give me alot more confidence than the stock pirellis. Wobbling went away like magic. Thank God.
      The stance of the bike changed a little. More aggressive now imho.
      Total damage was less than 500 dollars all in. 1 rim, tyres front and rear and balancing, alignment. It was alot of work. But worth it. :)

    • @SrinivasGanesh
      @SrinivasGanesh  Месяц назад

      wobbling can be due to several reasons like I pointed out in this video. Having a thicker oil can make the suspension stiff. no doubt but it will remain that ways. If you really want it, then by all means, go for it.

    I m getting interceptor soon and like to swap with tubeless tyres with similar setup. The minus i felt is the lack of tyre options. Is the speed rating and load index of this timsun tyre is similar or higher than pirelli phantom? It may create wobble at high speeds if the rating goes lower.

    • @SrinivasGanesh
      @SrinivasGanesh  2 года назад +1

      Definitely go for Outex conversion. As far as speed rating is concerned, the front is P rated which means it can handle speeds of upto150kmph and the rear is H rated meaning it can do up to speeds of 220kmph. But the main question is, how often you think you would be crossing the 150 threshold? and would you really want to?

    Can I know what problems or issues you faced by putting on 150 section instead of the stock 130 And if it's safe and advisable to do so. Does it sit comfortably between the sprocket and swing arm ? Is there any scrapping or brushing against the swingarm ? Notice any difference in the fuel economy as well as the top speed ?

    • @SrinivasGanesh
      @SrinivasGanesh  Год назад

      Problems? No problems, slight wider rear tyre meaning more contact patch on the road for better traction. It is very much safe to do so. It sits comfortably between the sprocket and the swing arm. Fuel consumption remains unchanged at 24-25 kmpl in city under ideal conditions. I’m not that enthusiastic in reaching top speed. I whole heartedly believe in cruising at under 120 kmph. People should be able to see what I ride as opposed to them having a discomfort in their ears and seeing only a blur. 😎👍🏽 thank you for watching the video!

      Ceat has less wobbles, but they are tubed. Meaning if you have an outex kit installed or a way2speed solution put to your rims, the air would still escape, since the tyres do not have a tubeless profile. But I'll ask around more about these tyres.

On our recent trip (myself, same pillion and around 30kg of luggage), I noticed wobbling at 80kmph and haven't been able to understand the reason. As we are back now, I am yet to try out again and see if the wobbling still exists (with the pillion but without the luggage). A little context before I ask you this... Could the luggage be the reason for wobbling?

      There could be one of the reasons that I point out in the video, could be because of the unevenness of the road as well. Luggage could be a reason as well, that is only if they were not balanced, or weighed differently on either sides. Please keep us posted if you were able to find the reason.

      Use the tyre depth measuring tool to measure the tyre depth. Many a time the tyres 'look' good but are not. So that is the only sure shot way to find out. If the tool says the tyre is worn out then you know the solution.
