Today I took test drive at Naman motors Panvel. Classic machine with great performance.Only I am worried about heating issues.I could feel heat even it was raining heavily in Mumbai.As per dealer since it is new machine heating is there. It will reduce after first service.Lets hope for the same...I am going to book it ❤....
See It is a single cylinder 650 we should expect some heating even the RE has it evenbeing a twin, but the point is it shuld not bother you while riding else you wont enjoy riding! Now the one I am riding alos got some heating and I was in riding it in city traffic but it didnt made me uncomfortable.
One of the most important thing is 1/ service center 2/ spear part 3/ build quality Royal Enfield ke yahi sab point top-notch h Warna honda hiness 350 best bike h but service center wala point nahi h
BSA has officially announced that the center stand will be a standard accessory fitment. When the bikes are delivered to customer, they will be added to them.
Is it tubeless tyres? If not then it's of no use in buying your bike.. You keep spending money like on RE.. Head light change, Upgrading to tubeless tyre..what else Bike should be complete..
I think almost every bike in the segment has tubed spoked wheels even the upper segnment bike has it! We still have to test the headlight once I get it for testing and I think to keep that retro aura continue there should be some elements
The heating is there and felt when the fan runs. Otherwise heat management is good, the cylinder is far away from the legs, unlike RE where it is very close by due to twin cylinder configuration. RE should consider liquid cooling at least for INT and GT.
@@gautamrabha6402 do you think purchasing this will be a good idea I really love this bike but the only problem is that if somewhere in the future piston rings worn or piston gets worn I'll have to replace either with bsa genuine part or with a 2.6 litre engine piston coz only cars have 100mm piston which is costly a lot
It is tubeless tyre but due to spoke rims there are tubes. The international model carriers the same. Tube sealant is suggested and probably convert to tubeless by custom methods like in the Himalayan 450.
Single cylinder is ok, but on a 650cc bike only 5 speed gearbox and small 12 litres fuel tank is not at all admirable. Side panels dont have any lock so anyone can open it and also open the seat, so there are serious issues with this bike
It is still not confirmed weather it is tubed but most probably it not not tubed as sold internationally, accessories list is also not out till now! Will post more videos once have this info!
Ase nahi hota bhai..every engine can be made in any way that it's designed for..single cylinder can bring out 100 horsepower and twin cylinder can bring out 8 horsepower if they are designed that way. The main difference is sound and vibration, if the single is smooth what's the problem?
Umm, well one thing for sure double's are more refined this is powerful but I dont like to revv long stroke they are made to enjoy at lower RPM's but you might feel some vibes as mentioned!
Sir price logically jyada hua interceptor se...RE dual cylinder similar price mein de rahi hai....BSA 30-40k sasti honi chahiye fir ye achi choice ho sakti hai...

The engine is actually advanced that the RE's 650. It is complicated due to the sheer displacement and liquid cooling. Liquid cooling is the complex process which increases the price. But, in this case the cost is high due to imported Pirelli's and Brembo's. The logical move from BSA should have been to switch them to Indian made Pirelli's rather Italian import and locally produced Brybre. The ABS is from Continental which is another import. Until further localization happens, the cost would not reduce.
It does happen, but buyers are informed of the same and discounts applied. Typically such bikes are kept in showroom for longer duration to fecilitate other test rides. But those who want immediately, they are offered such test bikes albeit with additional discounts.
In my test ride, I went over a couple of nasty unscientific local ones and it did scrape once probably due to my weight. But the scientific ones on proper roads were just fine.
I would love Yamaha to make a comeback. Their FZ X model is actually retro but sold with higher capacity engines abroad albeit a different name. Not sure when will they wake up. Such a shame it is.
Yes, it looks very odd in pictures and for a moment in real life too. But at least it is effective in keeping this engine cool. I wish RE had liquid cool on their INT or GT. It would have been unbeatable. But their engine overheats in the lightest of traffic and spirited riding on highways. My legs fry everytime either in city or highway. I wish there was a solution. But this bike is good in that aspect. Wake up RE!!
@@gautamrabha6402 i have been riding interceptor and it doesn't need liquid cooling. I have also ridden some other 650s like versys 650, ninja 650(same) and felt the heat more. Liquid cooling is not needed in a low compression relaxed motor. It adds up cost and complexity and also ruin the authenticity of classic motorcycles.
Interceptor is probably a better product now. It got the time to evolve since its launch. The initial ones had issues and had to be recalled for software updates and others. This bike was already launched in UK in late 2021 and by the time it reached us, it is a lot better. Still there is room for improvement. Besides, no bike is perfect and it is such a personal item that it has to fit with the individual. This is however, not applicable to commuters.
Class and mass main difference tha hai and rahega as interceptor is the cheapest 650cc twin and bsa is the costliest single 650cc difference in brand positioning 😔😔
Halogen head lights are way better in visibility than LED, there is nothing to boast about as LED light should gave been given LED light have poor visibility in dark it lacks the throw of light just provides brightness most of the LED light on recent model bikes are useless.
First on road review! Kudos!

I guess BSA Goldstar 650 uses a heavily reworked version of the same Rotax 650 engine used in BMW F650.
@@vineethg6259 yes it is very similar to that engine. We can say heavily based on it.

One of the most important thing is

3/ build quality
Royal Enfield ke yahi sab point top-notch h
Warna honda hiness 350 best bike h but service center wala point nahi h
New company hai, thoda wt karo bhai sab sahi ho jayega
Lets hope ki sab BSA ke lie available ho!
Is there a center stand or not ? If not r their mounts for an after-market center stand ?
BSA has officially announced that the center stand will be a standard accessory fitment. When the bikes are delivered to customer, they will be added to them.
what an eye candy.
Yes it is ❤️
Is it tubeless tyres? If not then it's of no use in buying your bike.. You keep spending money like on RE..
Head light change,
Upgrading to tubeless tyre..what else
Bike should be complete..
I think almost every bike in the segment has tubed spoked wheels even the upper segnment bike has it! We still have to test the headlight once I get it for testing and I think to keep that retro aura continue there should be some elements
How's the engine heat is it heating like re twin or less than that
I felt less then that but there was heating!
The heating is there and felt when the fan runs. Otherwise heat management is good, the cylinder is far away from the legs, unlike RE where it is very close by due to twin cylinder configuration. RE should consider liquid cooling at least for INT and GT.

Is there 350 cc also?
The international spec comes with tubeless spokes right? Then why we got tube setup
Well the dealership has update me that it has tube even I have seen videos of international spec!
The international spec doesn't come with tubeless spokes. You got wrong information.
It is tubeless tyre but due to spoke rims there are tubes. The international model carriers the same. Tube sealant is suggested and probably convert to tubeless by custom methods like in the Himalayan 450.
i think re should increase the redline limit for 650 and add a socket in all bikes for tyre inflation device
🙌🙌
Speedometer kaam nahi kar raha.
do u have breathing problems ?? If not, get it checked out .. i sense a post-covid pulmonary scarring impairing breathing
I think I should get it checked it was after covid 🙌
Single cylinder is ok, but on a 650cc bike only 5 speed gearbox and small 12 litres fuel tank is not at all admirable. Side panels dont have any lock so anyone can open it and also open the seat, so there are serious issues with this bike
how can anyone open side panel and seat????
@@GearheadOfficial just because they are not lockable, you please try to oen the side panels on a locked bike, you will get to know
When i rev my xpulse at 5k rpm at 3 rd gear i want to hear engine grunt noise. Bs6 has made it all weak.
Umm!
BS6 has made most ICUs sound and perform poor. But that is the price you pay for environment and climate change.
Tubed tyres ..No center stand ..🤦🏼♂️ option hai center stand keliye ?? Mounts hai ??
It is still not confirmed weather it is tubed but most probably it not not tubed as sold internationally, accessories list is also not out till now! Will post more videos once have this info!
It's tubed tyres even on the international models ! Tyre pe likka hoga tubed hai ya nahi 🤦🏼♂️
BSA has just made official that center stand will be part of standard accessory fitment.
It's tubed tyre?
According to dealership yes, But still I doubt...
@@GearheadOfficial thanks
Speed at 1st gear?
Speedo was not working will try to make another video!
Konsa company ka showroom mey milega?
Jawa Yezdi
Speed brakers experience with pillion, good if it can be covered
Noted! Next time will try to cover that
What abt the leg guard and grab rail at the back.. Are they not standard on the price mentioned..?
Secondly is it pssble to remove the sari guard...
Well that is still not available with dealer but most probably you have to purchase it seperately! And yes you can remove saree guard
That tyre is not such a good tyre , we have to upgrade to something else to get good grip.
Worth while upgrade for 350 owners.
Which tyre you will consider over pirelli?

Twin cylinder VS single cylinder which one powerful re ✌️
Ase nahi hota bhai..every engine can be made in any way that it's designed for..single cylinder can bring out 100 horsepower and twin cylinder can bring out 8 horsepower if they are designed that way. The main difference is sound and vibration, if the single is smooth what's the problem?
@@nyctophilecat bro bro twin cylinder is always powerful
@@vikashbarnwal So bisaically Twin are more refined and can be made more powerful you get that scope to make it bigger!

Dealer will shamelessly sell this to potential customers who is joyridden by reviewer!
I hope it doesn't happen!

@@gautamrabha6402but here I think they don’t intend to inform coz they can simply call it brand new and not ridden.

If Company add one more cylinder and made it with twin cylinder 650 CC engine then i am ready to spending my money on it

They need to desperse the heat from a single cylinder! I think the main reason why it is so big!
