Our take on this /// Verdict

The Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 in Ventura Blue is a compelling package for those seeking a classic yet modern riding experience. This bike stands out with its 650cc twin-cylinder engine, which, although not the most powerful, offers a delightful balance of torque and horsepower. The engines character, with 47 brake horsepower at 7,000 rpm and 52.3 Nm of torque at 5,150 rpm, makes it enjoyable for both city rides and highway cruises. The build quality, while budget-conscious in some areas like the plastic mud guards and electrical components, is generally robust and well-engineered. However, the suspension can be a point of contention, feeling both soft and stiff at times, though it doesnt detract significantly from the overall riding experience. Overall, the Interceptor 650 is a great choice for those who value a classic design, comfortable ride, and a strong community of enthusiasts.

The EMI options start from around 9,578, making it more accessible to a wider range of buyers. Given the features, performance, and brand reputation, the pricing is reasonable and competitive within its segment.
