RETROFITTING VF500F INTERCEPTOR INTO ADVENTURE BIKE.

THIS BIKE WAS SPAWNED OUT OF ABSOLUTE NECESSITY. WHEN LOOKING AT WHAT WAS AVAILABLE AS FAR AS ADVENTURE BIKES WERE, EVERYTHING WAS TOO TALL. SO I SET FORTH TO TAKE MY BIKE I ALREADY LIKED AND JUST MAKE IT WANT I WANT. CURRENT ODOMETER IS 48,000. A GOOD PORTION ON GRAVEL AND BACK ROADS. IT'S BEEN DUMPED A FEW TIMES, HIT BY A DEER AND HAD THE FRONT WHEEL UP AT TIMES TOO. FUN IS HAVING ALMOST 70 HORSEPOWER ON A NICE HARD PACK TRAIL. HOPE YOU ENJOY AND PLEASE LIKE, COMMENT AND SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE RANDOM ADVENTURE TYPE VIDS.

how does it handle offroad? i have the same bike and when i saw this video i fell in love with the idea of making an adventure bike off the interceptor, did you make any mods to the suspension?

IT HANDLED VERY WELL FOR WHAT I USED IT FOR. GRAVEL ROADS WERE ALWAYS A BLAST. NO FRONT SUSPENSION MODS BUT HAD REAR CBR600 SHOCK FITTED FOR IT. ALSO PUT A TRIPLE CLAMP OFF A 1981 XL500 TO BE ABLE TO PUT STANDARD BARS ON. I SAY DO IT YOU WILL HAVE A BLAST. HAVE A WAY TO PUT CRUISING PEGS ON. #1 MOD IMO.
