Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 - How to improve the bike without spending a fortune

Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 - How to improve the bike without spending a fortune: In this video I show you some free of charge mods I made to my Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 pretty much as soon as I bought it, together with a rear end tail tidy up and swapping out the end cans to provide some fruitier notes. I also demonstrate what the stock exhaust sounds like versus the after market pipes....enjoy! Note: I recorded this a couple of weeks after I bought the bike, I have held off releasing it at TEC's requests as I know they were having some stock issues getting the Cannon Silencers in...that's why regular viewers will note that some other mods I have done since (bashplate and mirrors for example) aren't in place in this video!

Here in the US S&S is already making proper mods for the 650. Exhaust, performance clutches, cams, high compression pistons etc. Really surprised me as they’re more of a Harley/Indian performance company. Very cool stuff and has me even more interested in one of these haha

[@jacob14163]

There aftermarket exhaust is definitely the best sounding for these bikes. I was also surprised to see them jump on the market for these bikes.

[@FrankBarco]

Probably because the Royal Enfield motors are on the flat track circuit and that brought attention to mods being produced for them.

[@psmith608]

Wow - I did not expect the bike to sound like that with new pipes! Sounds so mean - esp without the baffles! Thoes pipes and a few basic mods and you have got yourself a wicked retro bike. Excellent!

[@zrkn1]

That baby sounds mean. I like it! Personally , I would have left the front splash guard attached especially in the U.K.. The rear mods look fantastic. Really like that bike.

You can do a black, shiny paintwork on the front splash guard... 😉 then it looks much better

If he plans to ride during the winter he’d be wise to refit the front mudguard, but leave it off for summer riding.

[@stewartellinson8846]

funnily enough, when they were first shown i thought "oh god, it's got stupid small mudguards" and was quite pleased when they put these extensions on. It only goes to show that cusomers vary.......

[@kaptein1247]

It looks nicer this way. But the bike will catch way more mud

[@skymningforelsket1302]

Interesting mods, all around! Especially liking the black tape trim around the fuel tank. One thing I like about this model, tho, is the proper front fender. Like Triumph in the days of yore gave you a proper front fender that came down low and covered the wheel from 9 o'clock to 1 o'clock of the wheel. Bikes without this full fender, might as well not have a front fender at all--- all that water and dirt sprays directly onto the frame and engine LOL!

Superb looking, and sounding bike. I had to smile at the mudguard delete, as I always add fender extenders, and huggers to my bikes, for riding in England's green, but often damp countryside.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Many people have said the same!

[@dave6467]

Nice job TMF. Found it amusing, though, that changing the exhaust cans was a far easier task than removing a bit of sticky tape. When I took the reflectors off my old KTM Duke, I used some dental floss behind them to 'slice' them off with much of the adhesive. Then a quick wipe with white spirit.

[@Jaffa1951]

Sounds great with the new cans - especially with the baffles removed.

Nice bike, reminds of the good old times when things were less complicated... I'd buy it over a Triumph any day and save some serious $$ for things like slip-ons. Owned three XS 650 in the early 90s, I like these old parallel twins, the upright cylinders and those headers. In case the the exhaust is too loud without baffles you could experiment and drill holes into the baffles.

[@jonnyd8603]

[@WiltshireMan]

Beautiful. The Interceptor sounds really nice but as you mentioned, a bash plate will be a must have addition especially now that you've shortened the front mudguard. I watched Stuart Fillinghams video where he fitted a bash plate. He mentions that the oil filter being at the very front is vulnerable to debris puncturing the filter.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Yes I have another video already posted of my bash plate (I’ve posted these mod videos out of order - details in the description)...

[@paulcosgrove6160]

Very helpful many thanks, those cans are a must! Baffles out so much better..............a loud bike is a safe bike.

[@paulcosgrove6160]

@Mike W Have been using bikes as main transport for 50 years, 12 months a year, from triple 2 strokes with expansion chambers to superbikes, cruisers and quick naked bikes with LOUD exhausts. Ridden all over the world on long trips. Still do tours as health permits (another story now:-(). Raced Enduro, Endurance and Drag. Apart from 24 hour races have never worn ear plugs. Call me stupid if you like..................as I won't hear you LOL! Our generation were not snowflakes. Deaf yes.

[@paulnunn1039]

I removed the rear plastic too and stuck a small round reflector on the number plate off ebay. Left the front one on as keeps the engine cleaner. TIP-- Use your spare black number plate bolts to fill in the holes on the rear guard, looks better than the metal screws. As for the small brackets left on the silencers, leave them alone and live with them, not heard good things about exhaust wrap..!

[@kevinjerome4925]

Just check the rear reflector is on the centre line of the bike. Don’t know how big the reflector has to be.

[@daveyblakeney]

Don't forget the rear light has no reflector, and so when you remove the splash guard below the number plate you ought to use a rear light with a built in reflector lol, good man !

[@rgbigdog]

Baffles out gets my vote, sounds great.

[@jimojames3448]

So this is the bike you 'fessed to Henry you'd bought an R E. So glad I subscribed as you clearly have impeccable taste :) it's so good to see the people who kept the R E tradition alive producing such a fab bike whilst maintaining that historic ethos.

[@G58]

Those side reflectors on the forks are actually a great idea. I’m restoring a USA built/spec Honda VF750F Interceptor (the quick V4 one) that still has its original reflectors. I’m leaving them. They improve visibility. Otherwise, nice noise. Now all you need is some performance upgrades to give it the Ooomph a 650 ought to have. I’d start with a pair of flat Kehins, increased compression pistons, gas flowed head, and hotter cam. That might give you 60HP.

[@deltabluesdavidraye]

Yeah ruin it's reliability right outta the chute

[@G58]

David Raye You’re missing the point. Firstly, if minor performance upgrades could “ruin its reliability”, then the thing is far too fragile. But everyone who’s reviewed this bike has recognised the obvious fact that RE released this bike as a basic bike which is perfect for upgrading. And if it’s only capable of being made more aesthetically and aesthetically useable, then a lot of serious bikers will not be playing. There’s a limit to the appeal of any bike that satisfies borderline geriatrics by evoking a bygone era, but without delivering even the power potential that it should - on paper, never mind what we all know is possible.

[@pjakpjak7000]

Quick tip for removing the glue on the fork: use some form of universal lubricant, let it sit for a while and it will come off very easily.

[@geoffhalsey2184]

Interesting that you are removing parts of the mudguards. Living in not so sunny Wales, I'd take the opposite approach and try to source ones similar to those fitted to the 500 cc Classic. The more winter road crap they keep off me and the bike the better. Noisy exhausts are great for short runs, but when touring they are a pain. I can't see why you removed the fork leg reflectors? Anything that helps visibility on these dark winter nights is worth having.

[@CheersWarren]

Geoff Halsey I guess that the difference between people who ride a bike for transportation and those who ride for pleasure. I was the same when I lived in Britain. My first and only ever new bike ( duke 900gts) 1980? I put 12k on in the first year I owned it . 700 in the first week ...it was my only transport! Cheers Warren

That gooey stuff on the fork is easily removed with a product called GooGone which we have in Canada. The other thing that often works on that type of cleaning task is WD40. It has a pretty strong ability to dissolve adhesives without ruining paint.

Interesting video. Do not understand minimal mudguards fitted to modern bikes. Why would people want more muck and stones blown over their bike? Fashion? Beauty in the eyes of the beholder? I put a fender extender on my bike. But it would never do for us all to be the same.

[@longjonwhite]

Nice old skool bike mate. I agree with your tidying up of the tail end , but I think we bikers often change stuff just for the sake of changing stuff. Ironically, I recently paid money to add a front mudguard extension to my GS 650 twin, looks a lot like the part you binned ! IMO, the new pipes sounded worse than the stock ones, until you took the baffles out, sweet ! .. Happy Trails !

I've removed the plastic on the rear mudguard myself. Stuck with the standard plate though, and just mounted the original reflector on the bottom of the plate.

You didn’t have to reprogram the ecm after installing the new pipes? On my Bonneville reprogramming wasn’t necessary after installing the TEC 2 into 1 pipe, as long as I left the baffle in the exhaust can. The bike should be running pretty lean without the baffle(s).

[@rowanmarriott6048]

Did you check the insurance implications of your modifications of your mods new cans increase horse power. Likewise for your CRF 250.

[@jdr544]

With the exception of the removal of the fender extensions (where I would go the other way and install them, if they were not there), some of the mods can make you walk home at a Police control here in Germany! The back reflector misssing 40€. Front side reflector missing, they sometimes overlook, otherwise 40€ as well. The license plates are signed with the registration and technical inspection stamps (no chance to change), but they are smaller than yours. Changing to an exhaust system w/O official registration (ABE) will let your general operation license lapse which will be fined by I think 120€. If then at the end the exhaust is 10db/a louder than in your papers, transport alternatives for you and the bike are required!
