Is the Royal Enfield Interceptor 350 a good beginner bike?

by Ashutoshover 1 year ago0 views5 comments
The Royal Enfield Interceptor 350 is a classic styled bike with a price point that’s attractive to many new riders. But is it good for a beginner? Some, though, say it’s too heavy and powerful to be a good beginner bike, while others say its smooth power delivery and upright riding position are ideal for learning. These are all factors such as the rider’s size, experience, and intended use (city commuting vs highway riding). New riders without a lot of experience fixing things also worry about reliability and maintenance. We’ll take a look at different points of view on using the Interceptor 350 as a first motorcycle.

Consider your local roads. It's great if you're mostly riding in the city. However, if you have to get on highways often, you’re probably going to want more power sooner than later.

I began on an Interceptor 350 and have no regrets. The trick is to go slow, practice in empty parking lots and respect what the bike can do. It's a bike you can grow into, without outgrowing it too fast.

It depends on the rider. If you are a bigger person or have some experience on smaller bikes then go for it! However, if you’re petite, or if you’re a complete novice to two wheels, you may prefer to start with something a bit more manageable.

I wouldn’t recommend it as a first bike. Low speed maneuvering and parking is a little tricky for a beginner because it's pretty heavy. Start with something lighter and build confidence first then.

Absolutely! The Interceptor 350 is a good beginner bike. It’s not too powerful to be intimidating, but it has enough oomph to keep you engaged as you learn skills. It’s super comfortable for newbies as well, even when sitting upright.
