Charley Boorman - Hitchcox Motorcycles / Custom British Exhausts

[@neilwilliams9844]

I purchased one of toms off the shelf drag pipes for my triumph speedmaster,a no hassle sale with plenty of communication,& delivered before time,the quality is outstanding the welding is perfect & looks & sound is awesome. Would recommend to anyone. Loves it I do.

[@Charley.Boorman]

How to say, I agree

[@skiint1978]

Best looking and sounding Triumph exhausts by far

[@chrisnapier6623]

I bought one for my Speed Twin and it's amazing. Makes the bike look amazing and sounds beautiful.

[@Chasrut75]

Hiya Charley! That exhaust system is sweet. Just this week I got my 98 VFR800fi back on the road after 5 years parked up, brought it for a spin up over the Dublin mountains to Lynhams in Laragh. It's great to be back on the road. Rubber side down.

[@MentatOfDune]

The short exhaust really suits the knobbly tyres as you get a far better look of the rear. And that sound is amazing.

[@1990-t1j]

I didn't know you had a channel, Charley. Just cropped up in my recommended stuff. The T120 is a great bike. My favourite Triumph. Yours is nicely modded. I liked the exhausts as they were before you went to Tom's.

[@thomasskinner240]

Ah based in my home town! I had no idea. Ill have to head over soon.

[@MrEye4get]

Obviously, the Catalytic Converter is removed; which contributes to the sound improvement! Beautiful pipes!!

[@rabbidbabies4094]

Charley, I just installed the British Customs competition headers with their sleeper pro exhausts on my T120. Man, they sound fantastic and are heating up to a very nice golden brown. I have to say those Hitchcock pipes definitely improved the character of your bike. Looking good sir! Great video.

[@FLY--wy2yi]

I have a 2017 T120 that is still my every day rider. I’ve left everything stock from the day it was brand new but it is amazing to see how beautiful the modern T120 is when completely customized! Charley, it would be amazing if you did a similar custom job on a new Speed Twin. That would be looks and performance that couldn’t be matched. Cheers from New York

[@IslandADV]

Wonderful sound. Great work on the exhaust. You can see the artisan level of care that is put into these. Excited for the Desert X! IT'S A RAAACCCEE TO DAKAR!

[@darrylredmill4376]

Tough interview, Charles had to tease every answer out lol

[@murraywalker3232]

Love you T120 - how about a video about that!? Obviously had some mods with the wide wheels 👍🏻 had a speed twin for a few months now and loving it , Great videos 🤙🏻

[@grahamball364]

Hi there Charlie great to see you out on the road. I’ve always liked following you and Ewan on your great adventures. I’ve also got a few bikes in the garage and a lot of bikes through my ears. I also have a T120, I frequently ride the triumph Bonneville I also ride one of the new Royal Enfield Hunter 350s. It might not be as part of the tramp but it is a great little bike with a pokey little engine. Look forward to seeing more of your adventures. Take it easy safe regards Graham.

[@snekmeseht]

Very nice looking. Clean. And that was a spectacular improvement in the sound.

[@michaeltrufitt5477]

Them pipes look and sound great just found this channel I will keep watching 🤘

[@DailyDrivenBikes_1]

The lobster cuts look so cool on the right bike.

[@papabear1417]

Simple exquisite engineering. Fabulous

[@edwardt1941]

Sounds good. Previous exhaust had a sort of hollow sound. New one has brought back the individual firing sound

[@phillipdaulton9861]

Wow, doesn’t sound as harsh as the removed pipe! Surprising how effective those baffles are.

[@dankorolyk5917]

Definitely makes the bike look and sound better mate!

[@dmitriciccarelli4082]

Question sir, where did you buy the headlight grill? Apreciate it.

[@caenmyles]

What a Fab Sounding Triumph!!...That guy is a genius 👏

[@everestvirtue309]

Dear Charley Hello my Friend Thank you for making this Inspiring presentation I am so glad to see you having a Wonderful day and enjoying the Alteration of your Motorcycle I will remember All you have said to me Thank you for your Kind and Noble Nature I am currently working things out with my bike, you have been a Great inspiration and Help All Happiness to you my Friend Until next time Take Care

[@stevenwalker7151]

What kind of gloves are they Charley the look week comfy

[@simonclare-fu7sx]

lovely, I'll be searching this guy out for the next project

[@simoncaddick9085]

Those would work so well as a longer high level exhaust and the megaphones Tom have there look very interesting too. Definitely ditch the shoebox.. Looks like Tom also manufactures in stainless and mild steel as well as titanium, which makes sense.

[@BlackHillsMotoAndrew]

Do you get tired of the volume?

[@KimmoJaskari]

I'm a bit torn, I do like a nice sound but I abhor the antisocial levels of volume aftermarket pipes often reach. I'm also not necessarily a huge fan of form over function, and there's really little doubt that the exhaust gases will swirl behind the bike and back up toward the rider causing their clothes to soak up that exhaust smell when the pipes are that short. Craftsmanship looks to be exquisite, but not sure I'd enjoy these. Also, worth noting - if you dramatically increase your exhaust flow, you *must* put the bike on a dyno and dial in the ECU map for the exhaust. If you exhaust more air, you get more air in, which can make the engine run unacceptably lean and even burn the pistons and rings. Any changes to exhaust and intake means remapping if you want longevity.

[@johnhowlett9829]

Outstanding! Sounds 'pure tone' to my ears - I'm wondering what these would sound like on my Down and Out T100?

[@welshhobbit4092]

They look like they're in an awkward position for your legs when you are at a standstill. Burnt calves could be a problem. They look and sound nice though. Are they road legal?

[@IntoCircles]

Such a beauty this bike! ❤ Love the exhaust, makes it look even better. How are you liking the TKC80 tires Charley? Especially curious about road usage. Do they handle well? Noisy? Cause they look sooo good! 😎 Cheers!

[@flatcapcaferacer]

You'll have to credit Tom for NOT being blabby but he did make Charley work for it.

[@UncleLongbeard]

Very nice Triumph Charley

[@thequadraphonicgospels7829]

What tires are you sporting mate?

[@alanbugeja8734]

Extreme video,,,loved it ,watched it endlessly!!! You come across being so charismatic ant Tom is so cool ,he has the right attitude... Thank you endlessly, your content simple and too the point ,,, courage 😎

[@matiaskeil]

Most beautiful bike i ever seen and hear!

[@markhale7061]

really enjoyed it cheers charley

[@skyhill4279]

Hi Chris, interesting video and I can see your dilemma. Years ago I used to build choppers back when most of your parts you had to make yourself. I used to use high rise pullbacks or z bars. Both of these bars looked good with long forks in my opinion. Of course my bars were not rubber mounted and felt stable. I did have a pair of high apehangers but no matter how tight you had the handlebar clamps the bars could be moved backwards and forwards if you braked or accelerated too much so I stopped using them. Obviously that's why Triumph have fitted the location pin in the risers to stop this happening. This does of course severely limit your position for the bars to just one. I hope you get your bike adjusted to your requirements soon.

[@chrisbolton2500]

Exhaust looks great, any need for a re-map?

[@scoutcraft]

Wondering the same thing.

[@Ian-bq7gp]

The black widow stainless exhaust downtubes are really good and in 2015 i paid £200 for mine and ive been very impressed with the quality, fit and finish. Its for a 1999 honda vfr800. The others were more expensive and not better like the motad ones.

[@phildalton3294]

did you have to change the mapping

[@Saxymancan]

Are they street legal?

[@rickypowell4616]

Nice exhaust. What mirror do you have on the bike please?

[@Charley.Boorman]

I have one of those cheap little bicycle strap on mirrors. Is it just under the throttle?

[@rickypowell4616]

@@Charley.Boorman yes that’s it - under the throttle. Thanks Charley.

[@paulshenton6527]

Wonder if he does slash cut system for Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650

[@tripuce7678]

Your Bonnie looks fantastic. Make some video review please.

[@nounoufriend1442]

Sounds great but reckon your cat's done a runner lol , looked nice easy fit unlike my Thruxton got to remove frame rails to get header pipes off !

[@insideout2600]

Tom has got it . Very nice !!

[@gerrypowell2748]

Now that’s class,the sound too👌👌❤️

[@FunWithAJ]

Plan to get one for my Thruxton Rs

Nice a real craftsman.

[@alexem6009]

Oooooo this color, does anyone know the name/number?

[@jaymorris3468]

Video on your T120 please Charley.

[@docmarc36]

Tom is a man of few words... one must be well suited in one's on esteem when communicating. Charley at times seemed tugging at Tom's comfortable silence, but he was having none of it. He simply allowed the exhaust to engage in the necessary bantor.

[@davescott1491]

Very cool indeed.

[@black8art]

When I saw the name Hitchcox, I was imagining you at Hitchcocks, the Royal, Enfield specialist! Is titanium an apropriate material for an everyday bike? It's BLOODY EXPENSIVE!

[@DanWebb1493]

Does anyone know what helmet Charley is wearing in this? Really kike the look of it

[@dianedownie5951]

Price???????

[@markiesmith4537]

If Charlie Boorman thinks they're good they must be poor - I'd trust Katie Price's judgement on motorcycles before him!!! 🤣

[@zaphodbeeblebrox4574]

I preferred the look of your first set of pipes !.

Bike would look a lot better with a black seat

[@cpuuk]

Yes Charlie, clearly that bike has a cat ;-)

[@Alienbikers-in-India]

I think you have now cool, real, proper bobber exhaust, BUT your bike is kinda scrambler ... design styles' mismatch happened - in my eyes. How you will cross a water barrier?! Ok, ok, I got, you have different bike for that type of terrains. I have only one bike and i use it for adventure, a bit enduro and also long highway trips

[@danilocapellan1316]

Hot 👍🏼

[@SBKPete]

My neighbours would lynch me, if I fired that thing up on a Sunday morning 🥴

Slash cut pipes are just annoying.
