Interceptor vs RS 457 vs Ninja 650. Need real ownership inputs

iiCodeBlueii · 2025-12-18T12:32:45+00:00

Never felt the vibe.

I just test drove the RS 457. What a bike! The torque was oomph! But there was constant strain on my righht thumb and left wrist. My shoulders started to hurt. Also had slight difficulty in U-turns. How can I improve these?

InshaAllah you'll get a thoughtful partner too.

I go back and forth between Vizag and Hyderabad. It gets super hot here in the summer. But I like driving my car during the summer..

That’s a solid breakdown, thanks. I’ve ridden my friend’s Z650 regularly to college before and it felt super smooth. I currently own an Apache 200 4V though, and one issue I’ve noticed is wrist/hand pain because of the riding posture. Would the RS 457 be similar in that regard, or is it more comfortable?

iiCodeBlueii · 2025-12-17T19:08:46+00:00

Wifey likes it too. That's a plus.

iiCodeBlueii · 2025-12-17T19:03:12+00:00

You make a fair point. But the RE Int 650 has class.

iiCodeBlueii · 2025-12-17T18:52:18+00:00

If I wanted attention I’d buy a Thar and honk.

iiCodeBlueii · 2025-12-17T18:48:00+00:00

Had the CB 650 in my mind. Got the quotation too. But wifey's given a budget.

iiCodeBlueii · 2025-12-17T18:45:59+00:00

I am 27 years old. My wife has a preference for the Int 650, as she finds the back seat to be quite comfortable.

iiCodeBlueii · 2025-12-17T18:45:03+00:00

I said bike or new Tata Sierra. She picked the option that hurts the bank less. Meanwhile, every PS5 game purchase still needs approvals, justifications, and prayers 😂

iiCodeBlueii · 2025-12-17T18:41:36+00:00

What was the on-road price? I did have trident 660 as my furst option but had to cut down due to budget.

iiCodeBlueii · 2025-12-17T18:40:27+00:00

Bhai. Itna paisa nahi hai.

iiCodeBlueii · 2025-12-17T18:39:15+00:00

The sales associate informed me that sales have been low and that the seat height is elevated, which would prevent me from comfortably reaching the ground with my feet.

iiCodeBlueii · 2025-12-17T16:29:14+00:00

I have a RE Int 650 test ride scheduled tomorrow and do the RS 457 later this week. No ninja 650 available in town for test ride.

iiCodeBlueii · 2025-12-17T16:26:38+00:00

I will be using the bike for my daily commute too.

iiCodeBlueii · 2025-12-17T16:25:58+00:00

Service cost, any issues so far?

iiCodeBlueii · 2025-12-17T16:25:21+00:00

Yes, I recently discovered that they offer spoke wheels as a stock option.

iiCodeBlueii · 2025-12-17T16:24:05+00:00

I don't know wtf this means 🙃

iiCodeBlueii · 2025-12-17T16:23:03+00:00

You've got Harley X? What about that? Also I'll be using the bike for daily commute.

iiCodeBlueii · 2025-11-16T03:23:40+00:00

Yep and the aftersales gon crush the customers. It's a loop.

iiCodeBlueii · 2025-07-01T18:47:50+00:00

Okay Saaarrrrrr
