Wheel Speed Sensor – Interceptor 650 / GT 650

Description

Compatible Models

• Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 (All Years)

• Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 (All Years)
  (Front / Rear wheel use)

• Description

This is the precision-engineered wheel speed sensor assembly that works with the motorcycle’s dual-channel ABS system to measure wheel rotation speed and feed that data to the ABS control module and instrument cluster. It is a plug-and-play replacement built to match OEM specifications for the 650 Twins.

Key Attributes

• Function: Detects wheel rotation via magnetic pickup or hall sensor and sends pulses to ECU/ABS module

• Location:

  • Front sensor: mounted on fork leg (typically LH).

  • Rear sensor: mounted on swingarm/caliper bracket near ABS tone‐ring.

• Operating Voltage: 8 V to 16 V (as per general “wheel speed sensor” spec in service manual)

• Temperature Range: −40 °C to +70 °C (sensor environment)

• Compatibility: Works for ABS front and rear on 650 Twins – same sensor often used both ends.

• Connector Type: OEM connector matching harness of the bike – ensure plug match when buying.

• Installation: Bolt-on design (sensor body screws into mount), cable routed along fork or swing arm; gap to tone ring must be correct for accurate readings.

• Common Symptoms when Faulty: Speedometer/odometer stops working, ABS light stays ON, erratic wheel speed readings, sensor codes appear in diagnostics.

• Benefits

• Restores correct functioning of speedometer/ODometer and ABS module.

• Maintains safety via accurate ABS wheel speed input.

• OEM fit ensures correct gap, mount position, harness connector and long-term reliability.

• Relatively low cost compared to other ABS-module or wiring issues.

Fitment Notes

• Confirm your bike’s model year (BS4 vs BS6) and ABS version – although part numbers above cover major variants.

• Check old sensor’s part number and connector to avoid mismatch.

• When replacing, ensure the tone ring (abs ring) is intact, sensor mounting bracket isn’t bent, and gap to ring meets spec.

• After installation, perform a test ride and verify that the speedometer works, ABS light goes off, no error codes.

• Torque the mounting bolt as per service manual
