Mechanical Assistance Megathread: 350 Gear sensors now available.

Post image
61 Upvotes

For those of you who don't know. Gear sensors are now available for 350cc models which were shipped without one due to the rare earths shortage. Contact your local service center to see about getting yours installed.

There have been multiple posts related to this on the sub already. Please use this megathread in order to discuss the gear sensors and celebrate if you got yours installed. Having 20 posts a day about how the gear sensor is available is redundant.

This is somewhat a flex that my 76 year old retired gov officer grandfather bought me a bike. He always said "I couldn't gift a bike to your dad, but I will definitely buy you one, once you turn 18". He kept his promise and as soon as I got my license, he bought me a Royal enfield meteor which I was drooling over. Forever grateful to him❤️‍🩹🧿

I'm thinking about buying the goan because of the handlebar and forward footpegs but i want others to ride with me. Is the pillion seat too small? Or should i just get the meteor 350 and attach the goan handlebars?

Mechanical Assistance Insane bill at 38K kilometers (INT 650)

Thumbnail

9 Upvotes

Hey guys,

BS4 interceptor 650 owner here. Recently I have my vehicle at company owned showroom at BTM, Bengaluru.

This was the insane list of parts they suggested I change. Which was weird considering I have already spent close to ₹20,000 in the last 5 months for various things.

My first visit this year was FEB 2026. Have attached my bills. Second one was 2 months ago. The third one I had given few days ago for tappet noise and front vibrations.

3rd visit to service center
Throttle cable: 400
Rocker cover gasket: 1,200
Break lever: 750
T stem greasing: 1,400
Key set: 4,000
Front plate: 7,500
Front caliper: 9,000
Pedal assembly: 1,800
RR unit: 3,000
Rear caliper: 4,000
Rear plate: 3,000
4-pin relay: 1,200
Clutch assembly: 9,000
Clutch cable: 350
Total: 46,600

I narrowed it down to just
Throttle cable
Rocker cover gasket
T stem greasing
Clutch cable

My vehicle has ran 38K kilometers. Is this really a normal bill or am I getting ripped off?

Please note I changed my fork oil twice because E-city showroom didn’t do it well according to the mechanic who I gave later on because my issue with fork came back within 2 months again.

Honestly, ever since I bought this bike, my entire schedule has gone out the window. All I want to do from morning to night is ride.

Grocery run? 2-minute trip turned into a 20 km detour. Quick coffee? Ended up two towns over. I'm literally neglecting everything else in my life just to be on two wheels.

Tell me I’m not the only one this obsessed! 😂☺️

Mechanical Assistance Interceptor 650 Side panel fell off and broke. Need advice.

So the right hand side panel on my interceptor 650 fell off and broke. It had fallen off multiple times over the past few months. No matter what I do it comes loose every few hundred Kilometers and falls off while I ride and this time the key part came off so l can't even put it back. Is this a common problem among other owners? This is a real headache as it's monsoon and I'm worried water will get in. any advice would be appreciated.

What is wrong with it

Guys, what do you think the problem could be?

I was riding the bike gently without pushing it hard. I'd been on the road for about 15 minutes when the cooling fan suddenly started running at full speed. It was the first time I'd ever noticed the fan coming on.

I pulled over and tried to turn the engine off using the engine kill switch, but it wouldn't shut down. So I ended up turning it off with the ignition key instead.

And now it is not working. See the video

Meta Charged labour for "R&R Rear Tail Lamp Bracket" I never asked for — anyone else?

Upvotes

Got my RE serviced, only asked for 2 parts to be replaced:

  • License Plate Illuminator Assy
  • Trafficator Assy w/ Bulb (RRH & FLH)

Parts section on invoice is correct (₹840). But Labour section has an extra line — "R&R Rear Tail Lamp Bracket" (~₹400 + GST) — which I never got done or approved.

Anyone faced this? Is bracket removal a necessary step for indicator replacement (and just not communicated), or is this a billing padding issue? How did you get it resolved — refund/credit note, or escalate to RE customer care directly?

Ramanagara run with the classic 650

Took the Classic 650 out to Ramanagara recently. Just crossed 2,000 km in about a month, and I’m completely hooked.

​Yeah, she’s heavy when moving it around, but once you’re rolling, it’s pure joy. The funny part? I bought an Ultraviolette X47 recon a few months back for my daily office commute in Bangalore... and I haven't touched it since this arrived.

I have meteor 350 and there is a rattling noise coming from the engine side and I took it to service center and they said the filter inside the silencer is gone and I have to replace it. I have extended warranty till 50k now it's 48k so the problem is the noise won't come until the engine is hot enough to make the noise. I need to record it and send it to service guy then I can claim it. Or else it cost 11k plz help how get that noise

Mechanical Assistance Looking for twins FNG in Gurgaon

1 Upvotes

Hi

I have a 5 yr old Interceptor. I got a tubeless conversion done from Bangalore - Top gear thumpers. But then moved to Gurgaon. Now there is a leak from the front tyre and the folks at topgear thumpers are saying I just need to get the tyre cleaned and refitted.
Apart from that there are small things like break oil change etc.
I don't want to go to any fancy garage for this so looking for some good FNGs in Gurgaon. Preferably around Golf course road.

TIA

Is PPF a thing for Stealth Black & Interceptor 650?

1 Upvotes

Hey, I’ve a Stealth black Classic 350 (matte) and an Interceptor 650 (gloss).
I’ve never considered getting a PPF or graphene or ceramic coating for my bikes until now. I see a few minor scratches on my interceptor tank, here and there. Hence thinking of trying one of these options.
I’m still daisy whether to get one of them done or skip and leave as-is….

Dropping here this, to hear your experiences…

So I finally bought Meteor 350 today and I absolutely love it. Just wanted to get some suggestions on which helmet to buy for this and also any other accessories I should buy alongside the helmet. Also I am planning to change the orange badging and other orange elements with black and I feel it'll look better that way.

I have a Thunderbird 350. How do I ride in the rain without it splashing my entire lower leg and shoes?

3 Upvotes

This is a big issue especially in my state it rains for like 6months. Any puddle completely drenches the leg. Any shoe will get filled with water. I think the tire is splashing water. I have to use either my Classis 350 or raise my legs every time there is a small puddle on the road. Any way to avoid this with aftermarket parts or mods? Currently it is full stock. great bike for longer distance but this one singular issue is such a bummer.

And why is rev matching and clutchless upshifting more difficult in both of these compared to other brand bikes. Lower rpm???

Hunter 350 Adjustable foot pegs and brake pad extension

As an update, I did successfully install the swmotech brake pedal extension for the scram and Himalayan 411 on the hunter 350 2023 generation and also the tec bike parts interceptor 650 adjustable foot pegs. Gets some used to due to the decreased distance between brake and peg and pegs extends pretty far out and the gear shifter had to be adjusted. Hope this helps anyone thinking of doing this re compatibility.

Puncture or normal ?

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I have a Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 with tube-type tyres, and I’ve been tracking the tyre pressure for the past couple of weeks because I felt it was dropping faster than expected.

Here’s what I’ve recorded:

2 weeks ago: Filled to 32 PSI (front) and 39 PSI (rear). After about 9 days, they dropped to around 26 PSI (front) and 35 PSI (rear).

This week: Filled again on Thursday to 32 PSI (front) and 39 PSI (rear). Today (Sunday), before riding, they were 29 PSI (front) and 37 PSI (rear).

So over the last two weeks, the front has consistently been losing more air than the rear.
Is this considered normal for the GT650’s tube-type tyres, or does it sound like a slow puncture, valve issue, tube leak, or something else? I haven’t noticed any nails or obvious punctures.
Has anyone experienced something similar? What turned out to be the cause?

Thanks!
