Dikke motor. Ik ga hem zelf ook halen binnenkort.

I had a Nuda 900R for a few years, a brilliant bike. But, my 990 SMR was a better bike. And my Hypermotard 1100 EVO SP is as good as it gets. All three are worthy of keeping for life.

RoyalJordanian is Brand ambassador of Nuda900r

I have the same 675r in white and red....it's perfect

Hi Rick, what a great video about such an interesting and unique motorcycle! I loved how you took time to explain a great part of the story about the CX500 Turbo, how it came to be and the comparison with the other models. It really shows that you put a lot of love and effort into this video! It is a real shame that you have gotten so little views on this video. I guess most people are interested in modern superbikes, but this video really deserves a lot more attention because you did a great job in making it! Cheers!

You find this RE refined. It would be interesting to know which motorcycles you usually ride.

I am really wanting to import one of these to canada but it seems impractical/very difficult. Glad to see this review.

In my Triumph progression I had a 2014 675R for 6 years, then a 2018 765RS for 3 years, now a 2019 Speed RS. I loved the 675R, but the 765RS was a step up in enjoyment in all ways, better suspension and chassis, better brakes, similar bottom end but progressively more mid-range torque and top end power, and I think better looks. I prefer everything about my Speed RS to the 765, except the gearbox…it’s noticeably less slick, and takes more care to achieve smooth shifts. It’s about as close to an ideal all around naked bike as I’ve ridden.

Hi Rick. (sorry if you know this) Over here in the U.K. in the 80`s the CX 500`s were very popular with dispatch riders, especially in London. They got the nick name of plastic maggots, can`t explain why. Not coveted in there day here as they were seen as work bikes, but now getting repurposed after a bit of work as cheap café racers. I enjoy your channel, good luck with it...

I had one as a loaner while my bike was in for a service. It was all pretty standard until I went around a few corners . The handling is superb for a retro. But its not a retro because the old bikes would try to kill you if you got too "Barry Sheene". Very impressive - it does what it says on the tin. Your negatives - in my aged opinion :- - exhausts - yes, they're probably very heavy and restrictive. I'd only consider replacing them with chrome ones that looked similar - but I wouldn't bother because performance (on _this_ bike) and mpg isn't a thing for me. - seat comfort (lol) -try one with no sponge! - you just have to ride it more to...acclimatise - fueling is snatchy - well, they lean them out for emissions - there's probably a engine map tweak or fix for it - not that i would bother, I see this sort of thing as a symptom of the modern world , things are so refined these days, engines start on the button, tires that actually grip in the rain, brakes that don't fade away under heavy braking etc etc. Bikers will start complaining about transmission noise soon ! Sorry but if you spend £600 sorting all this out don't complain about the price of petrol! Nice road test -enjoyed it.

Im a young guy (24) here in Australia. I bought my interceptor six months ago, first thing i did is bar end mirrors, and as soon as I had the money, a full Verex Exhaust. The jerky throttle sounds like a maintenance problem. These use a cable throttle, so cables do have to be lubricated, and then eventually replaced. As you said, this bike is surprisingly fast and a pleasure to ride.

Blame E5 emissions standards for the throttle response.

I really like the bent tube for the luggage. What brand is it?

Super nice classic bike! Fuel injection started to appear on the BMW K100 and K75 ( early 1980's) and some Kawasaki models. The other turbo bikes of that era: Kawasaki GPZ750turbo Suzuki XN85 Yamaha XJ650turbo Moto Morini 500 turbo

Really enjoyed that video thank you Rick. Unique bike to review and like your genuine, long standing love of bikes especially the older ones. The history around these bikes also adds greatly to the content quality and interest it generated. Thanks once again and keep the content coming please. Very glad I subscribed!

Thanks for the honest review bro! Ride Safe!

big YES - from a STR 675 owner

Love my 675rx, plenty of real-world performance. Speed triple throttle tube is the only mod you need really. An exhaust is also nice for the noise and to save weight, and I also fitted a lithium battery, quick ways to save a few kilos. I also lost 30kgs this year! Need to get it mapped, and also fit the Ohlins shock I have and set up the forks. So much fun!? 😃😊

Beter goed Nederlands dan slecht Engels

Does it feel top heavy?

Just to cerrect the informatioan regarding fuel gauge, I own TDM 850 and in later production the dash was reworked and it has fuel gauge :)

I had the 98 for a long time, put 175k on it without any real problems apart from obvious wear. Best bike I ever had. Reliable and ready for anything, more than enough power on the street and a perfect bike for twisty roads, amazing handling. Push it to the limit, it won't disappoint.

Ive had a new interceptor for about 6 months and absolutely love it. New end cans, seat, air filter etc. Looks and sounds fantastic. No prpblems at all. Enfield nailed it.

All time fav bike love my 2014

Nice video! im currently looking into buying one of these bikes and was contemplating getting a 2017 765rs instead of a 2016 675r but now i am definatly getting a 675, cheaper and having ridden one i also loved the brakes and handling.

Give a 790/865cc Bonneville a go (the ones from 2001 to 2015), they are a lot of fun.

Husky should bring this bike back in 2025!

This is one of those bikes that just work very well and you somehow fall in love with. I never rode it, but I would love to. Nice and detailed video. Enjoyed. Drop by to check my content. You may like it. Take care. Cheers.

Real bikers wear boots common sense do you have any

Oerend hard, dan bund-ie eerder thuus! Net zoals Bertus en Tinus op de Norton en de BSA!

You're forgetting Moto Guzzi, I think its the lesser known king of Retro. There are some improvements over RE overall.

The red line painted on the light is not needed. It looks stupid. ※from japan

10:38 yeah it does sounds great with aftermarket exhaust even just a slip on is enough to make a huge difference....in case if you don't know that 648cc engine was co engineerd along with Triumph so it does sounds like old school British Twin cylinder motorcycle

The black one looks way better in person than the pictures make you think if the green is too loud for you. I love mine. I put the green rim decals on it to match the green rear shock and I'm happy with it. Quickshifter is the same for me, it's happier with throttle than it is driving normal traffic speeds. Only other thing I'd recommend for people getting one is to leave the exhaust alone for a while. A slip-on is crazy loud on this thing because you're always revving and shifting. It can be annoying having it scream at all times.

I have the 850 3VD 1991 (the first one) and I have just bought the 900 5ps 2008. Sound and power sensation is for 850. The 900 is the best for long trips and every day

The ecu needs update the jerky throttle at slow speed can be fixed ether with a up to date ecu or by putting a powertronic controller on the bike my bike has the powertronic on her and with the dna filter she flys like a bird

I have exact same spec! 2.0 2009 Stormy blue with recaros and LSD with removable hardtop.

I bought a 2hand Interceptor a 22 model I’ve had no problems whatsoever ever with her,I’ve put on New shorty slip on exhaust (purely to loose some weight) fitted stage2 DNA Airfilter she sounds perfect for me has that lovely old school sound with cracks & pops! Put on bar end mirrors, got rid of the cheap plastic chain guard with a metal one! At the moment am happy with the seat but may upgrade the shocks at a later date! Just love riding her! Very good review!

What exactly is 'too refined' about these? I'd say mine in comparison to every other bike I've had, is rather clumsy, particularly build quality, suspension, engine at higher speeds, weight, finishing, tyres etc?

just bought one

Refined? You must be kidding.

Great video! I’ll subscribe for Royal Enfield videos.

We can meet in the Netherlands. I bought mx5 last month. 2.0 L 2010 prht

After a test ride on the interceptor I ordered a touring seat for my new bike. Turns out the touring seat is in style only and just as hard as the standard one. My advise, get the standard seat reupholstered with comfort foam as I did and it transforms the riding experience. Richard

This or any Royal enfield motorcycle is basically designed for India. Where most highways are limited to 100 km/h. And expressways are limited to 120-140kmph BUT MOTORCYCLES ARE NOT ALLOWED ON EXPRESSWAY. So essentially, they will always sit at 100 km/h . Yes, they have advertised it for being able to do an IMPERIAL TON (100mph or 160kmph) and the motorcycle can do and sit there comfortably, it is still meant to be ridden at 100 km/h.

You learn fast. Learn to ride slow and be at peace. So you can stay in one piece.

What if drill 1/8 hole in bottom of sanister

you are still a bit young for this bike...

wath about the elekt problems , see on you tube ????
