Our take on this /// Verdict

The Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 Black Ray is a compelling package for those who appreciate the blend of retro aesthetics and modern performance. The bikes parallel-twin engine delivers a pleasing timbre and robust torque, making it a joy to ride across various speeds. The riding position is comfortable, although extended rides may require some adjustments to find relief. The handling is competent, though it struggles with mid-corner bumps and sharp potholes, which can affect the pillion rider. Brakes are adequate but could benefit from more power and better lever feedback. Despite some niggles, such as inconsistent suspension tuning and engine heat at city speeds, the Interceptor 650 Black Ray remains a charming and fun motorcycle that captures the carefree, relaxed vibe Royal Enfield is known for.
