Royal Enfield Interceptor 650. The EQUALISER Ultimate adjustable footrest/control system!

[@andrewhayes4246]

My personal opinion is that the bare Ali looks wrong. They need rubbers which would also prevent nasty bone bruises.

[@seauryakumar]

Yes, Yes and Yes. As one of the people who hit their calves on the pegs, I'm highly interested in these. Looking forward to importing them when they become available 👍

[@timsatch9198]

What a magnificent well thought out piece of engineering. I have often made modifications in this area. Shorting/lengthening leavers, and all sorts of similar tricks but this goes to a whole new level. I say again, magnificent. Thanks for posting.

[@TheTXRanger]

Nice! Always like seeing what the good folks at Motone (Hitchcock & Tec, as well) have in their product pipeline. Also appreciate the added clarity on why the RE INT650 was developed as it was. I've had no issues w/ any of the lever or pegs, either. Other than the gorgeous looks of this, I'm not sure why I'd get it. Thanks, Uncle Stu! #UncleStuRules!

[@andrewjohnson6633]

Good to see you back. I've been getting my fix from your older videos. I've just taken delivery of my brand new Interceptor so I've just been out for 20 miles. :-)

[@gasgas2689]

20 miles? My first day out was 320 miles. Did you miss the 3 off the 20?

[@stuartfillingham]

well done Andrew congrats!

[@jamesgordon4433]

They look great. Hope royal enfield comes out with a bike named " Shotgun ". The pegs should look Just as good has on the interceptor. Thank you for all your time and patience

[@bpgrmds]

Oh, a video on the Interceptor 650. what a delight!! thankyou

[@kevinalbert24]

I am looking forward to change the name 'Friday' to 'Dr.Stu' Day on my calendar. Every 'Dr.Stu' Day is a treat to the eyes.

[@russparker71]

Great video Stuart. Masterful editing of your footage in order to show the full range of adjustment of these controls - very well done indeed!

[@mototakahe836]

A superbly crafted promo video for the product. They certainly look the business. However I think they may be very pricey for some, but................. Congrats on your return with is great piece of work. Chapeau as we say in France.

[@motorings735]

Can't wait to see these finished. I'm looking for some higher foot rests so I can grip the tank a bit more with my knees. The GT foot pegs are about an inch too low for me.

[@showbiz3848]

EXACTLY ! I'm right with you on that one brother! I'm 6'2" with a 35" inseam and I can tuck in for hours at a time with this bike.... The cockpit is so roomy. But I just need to be able to hug another inch of tank, to be really comfortable behind my fairing. My Conti is so bloody perfect in every other way...... I am truly geeked about this piece of kit. Ride safe!

[@TheKRU251]

Good one Uncle Stu. Love these on so many accounts. Just one perhaps negative thought. How is the leather on your left boot uppers? The knurling seems to be a surefire way of wearing the boot surface significantly. But the rest? Fantastic!!!!

[@stuartfillingham]

No problems!

[@richardwhittle2302]

Hi Stuart very useful video. Had a look on Motone Web site and cannot see the Equalizer Kits. Do you know if these have gone into production as yet? 👍

[@nicholasjarrold8649]

They look very nice and from the camera footage they look good quality and as for brass they would look very nice I have lots of brass bits on my 37 year old Honda shadow the bike is black and it looks beautiful with brass bits here and there take care ride safe 👍

[@showbiz3848]

Now that's exciting.... Must have? Yes indeed. The pieces look the part and dam! They even managed to maintain pivoting foot pegs!!!! FANTASTIC ! As for price.... I paid $600 US, for custom fully adjustable rear-sets for an Aprilia I once owned. Lovely bike btw. A 2012 Shiver 750....and what a difference the fine tuning afforded by rear-sets makes, in finding that perfect human/machine interface. So Cuz you know it's as they say... ' the devil's in the details' . And thanks Stuart, for keep us all up to date in all things "Enfield"

[@davidpowell4735]

HIGH MARKS for this one Uncle Stu! Without elaboration let me say that after trying a couple other products to deal with my foot peg issues I’ve decided to sell my Interceptor. I’ll wait now for The Equalizer. Thanks!

[@1990-t1j]

That Interceptor engine is a thing of beauty.

[@BikerTorque]

They look like quality items, much better than the stock items. I did have an issue with the position of the stock pegs but must admit I did get used to it. They are in a great position for riding though.

[@AudreyH48]

These look beautiful. I'd like to see an anodized black for my Baker Express I think. Maybe be able to have the pegs in red might be kind of cool but if not just black. Will be watching to see when these actually come to market. I'm the same way though, I don't have any issues with my current setup, but they do get in the way when stopping for traffic lights or whatnot. I just keep my feet forward on the Interceptor when stopping.

[@ruahinesrider]

I never had a problem with the stock ones either, but they sure look good.Keep up the good work Uncle Stu.

[@terrycavender]

Beautiful! Motone has a winner here so well made.👍 Is there a similar set in prototype for the GT? Or, will this work on the GT?

[@MNStory81]

Came here to ask the same thing - seems like the only difference would be the need for a different gear shifter for the GT, otherwise everything else looks the same. Here's hoping Motone or someone will do an aftermarket setup for the GT!

[@andreVE4BK]

Great looking gear. Love the fact that the pegs are also on a pivot. Thanks again for this great video Uncle Stu! 👍

[@alanharris2799]

Like you Stu, I have zero issues with the standard setup on the Enfield, I simply adapted my leg position for manoeuvring the bike about. I quite like these, but personally I would prefer then to have a rubber finish like the OEM units, as my experience of pure metal pegs has always been some vibration that gets damped out by the rubber (a bit). That being said, as I have no ‘problem’ to solve, I am unlikely to buy them anyway!

[@stuartfillingham]

Vibration on an Interceptor?

[@alanharris2799]

@@stuartfillingham I don’t get any vibration on the interceptor, it was more a comment around bare metal pegs in general, if there is any vibration on a bike, they will transmit it! The Interceptor is possibly the smoothest bike I’ve owned, even better than my old Thruxton R!

[@henrysmith5604]

About time I mentioned to you about 2 years ago that the footpegs were in the wrong position I tried Hitchcocks kit but wasn’t any good hence I sold my interceptor after a few months as it really irritated me I bough the 650GT instead a very useful and informative video 👍

[@artiecisneros4691]

Believe or not that was the reason I bought the Meteor instead. That's great news, thank you. 😊

[@aedlow]

Uncle Stu Rules. True story! The music alone made this video 😄

[@darrellmeganfoxall8830]

Every video is excellent, thank you so much for taking the time to enlighten and explain in normal terms and words.. 👍👍👍👍👍

[@tonydenial1485]

Hey up Stu, Gotta say I was thoroughly entertained by this vid as usual, I'm thinking I might disconnect my aerial for terrestrial TV and just watch your stuff because it's a lot more interesting ha ha 😊, looking forward to the next one, cheers.

[@jeffgravitt3732]

You stated in the video that you're "not privvy" to other finishes, etc, so I hope you'll pass along to Motune that not all of us like the rounded pegs and shift/brake levers. Personally, I quite like the rubber-covered items and "flat" footpegs, so am hoping those are options as well. Thanks for making this video, Uncle Stu. The Interceptor footpeg issue has been one of the sticking points in my new bike decision and being quite short of inseam, a real concern.

[@jimdandy9671]

2 years later I guess Motone gave up on the project, there are no listings on their website for this product, which is too bad it looks like just the thing to solve my bigfoot/small pegs problems!

[@alancampbell1008]

Anodised black or even a quality powder coat would be my personal choice. They look a lot nicer than standard so it would be a purely cosmetic choice for me as I don't really have a problem with the standard ones except they look clumsy. Thanks Uncle Stu!

[@KRAM-zb2vc]

Brilliant video as always Stuart and those Equalisers are special bits of kit indeed 😃👍🏻

[@michaelglynn2638]

Very nice indeed, and a comprehensive description too. Excellent footage (feetage)? 👍

[@waffleridersmoto4191]

Uncle Stu Rules… Most excellent update on the gear this will be a nice upgrade to the OEM. Also, I’ve noticed that each time you post gear from Hitchcock’s and Motone I seem to spend a few more dollars.

[@peterk6077]

Thanks for the update Stuart and for previewing what could be an essential mod. I have run into the problem of hitting my calf but was thinking maybe I shouldn’t sit on the bike to move it around.🙂 As you say the stock pegs snd leavers do the job, but it is one area that I would like to improve. Some brass elements would be good to go with the Motone valve caps I have on the bike. Cheers

[@stephendove5306]

Enjoyed the video , although I don't have trouble with my pegs , but one problem I've had is the brass rivets on my Johnny Reb boots , I've had to put velcro strips around the rivets on my right boot to stop scratching up my side case ! although moving the peg position back may solve this problem , it will be more expensive ! getting into Spring here in OZ , so even more riding , stay safe with the rubber syde down !

[@skotty1962]

Thank you Stuart. Nice review. Excellent editing by the way. Not sure about the round profile of the footpegs. Looks a little slippery.

[@kelvinharrison6702]

Amazing workmanship.like you say alot of research gone into then.i will be keeping a eye out for these.even though i have no probs with the originals.nice one Stu 👍🤜🤛

[@henryhartley9993]

Nice one Stuart, quality looking set up...

[@o_fishel]

Welcome back Uncle Stu!

[@tomschooley5789]

I just looked on your link and I don’t see them. Are they available yet? Any idea when they will release for sale?

[@Stevel_]

I would absolutely be interested in these, but like the comfier feel of inlaid rubber on both the pegs, shifter and brake. If they make a "touring" version with rubber, it's a day one purchase from me.

[@velosoplinio666]

Amazing! can't wait for them to be available!!!!

[@dirkroadking3587]

Those are really nice controls

[@rickhill6277]

Nice Vid Stuart! My problem with the Foot Pegs is that at 5’ 3” tall and a 28” inseam when I put my feet down they hit my calves. Therefore I must put them either in front or behind the Pegs as I can’t put both down beside the Pegs. This would be a great help to me in solving my problem. Please keep up the Good Work and Cheers from Salem, Ohio US.

[@Marmaduke693]

Very nice 👍 a bit off topic but as we will soon be preparing our bikes for winter, could you give us your thoughts on the jenolite wax oil you used for last winter please, keep up the good work 👍

[@mad-reaper]

No issues with the pegs or levers but... These look too good to pass up. Looking forward to when they become available.

[@imochasingh6875]

The rounded silver finished brake pedals looks shiny but doubt that it will be grippy

[@chriscoates2399]

Nice ! Wait n see what comes , GIVE US AN UPDATE HEY STUART , So far looking good I like the silver

[@mab6893]

Great video. They look great quality. Nice one.

[@Sideshowgaz5779]

These look ace, but it's a shame that a year later they don't appear to have made it to market.

[@tomtardif4387]

I like to set up but I prefer the foot pegs and pedals to be rubber that can be replaced if they get worn out. Had metal pegs like that on a cruiser once and my boot kept sliding off them they didn't last long replace them with once with rubber inserts.

[@goldilocks913]

Look beautifully made 👍

[@michaelevans1658]

Uncle Stu rules ha like that.

[@robertadams4415]

Good show uncle Stu

[@allengreen6885]

Like you I don't have an issue with the placement of the pegs but I'm am very interested in these fir their looks out would be great if standard "O"rings could be used to add grip or soften the feel of the levers

[@hemantv.5409]

It will helpful, specially break assembly.

[@johnk7814]

😳😲 ohhhh they look nice Stuart 🤔 I think I have found something to spend my E voucher on 😁. Definitely nicer then the one’s I have in my Interceptor but black with brass pegs would be awesome ❤️ . When When When ??? Also have reached out to Sam about reinstating my E voucher for the remaining amount 155 pounds but haven't hear back from him. I would apply that to a set of these.

[@deepaknagraj9827]

Hi Stuart, like to thank you for the wonderful videos made by you. Also, while the Equaliser is a wonderful addition, love your pair of Boots ( apologies for digressing from the topic here ). Can I know which brand are those ? Thanks

[@stuartfillingham]

Gianni Falco Aviators!

[@deepaknagraj9827]

Thanks a ton . .

[@mc-gl8rx]

Looks like a lot of play in them, hopefully that will be sorted before release.

[@josemathew3916]

Good video dear Stuart Sir

[@commonsense718]

The threaded gear link bar for adjusting the gear pedal height is left hand thread at the lower end, right hand thread at the top end.

[@stuartfillingham]

Super!

[@brunodespin9225]

One more excellent video, thank you. I’m much interested by this still to come solution. Since my very first trial the Interceptor I fill slightly uncomfortable with the gear shift level position! Shall I consider that I somehow belong to sort of a bigfoot brotherhood?

[@joemolly]

I'm curious about these pegs. Did they ever become available?

[@krisztiandani94]

Hi all. just came back to this video, as i am planning to by my first bike and the Interceptor is on top of the list. And that footpeg issue was something that would affect me. I`m assuming this product never came out in the end, or at least i couldn`t find it. Is there any good alternatives ? I`ve seen Tec CNC adjustable foot pegs but that was missing exactly what Stu was pointing out, the adjustable gear lever.

[@kenzetterdahl1248]

Again , An inspiration!

[@vikalpsaxena8599]

Sir ur boots are amazing

[@samchisolm8713]

Well done.

[@kaustubhdudhavadkar7577]

What are the accessories you have fitted on the machine, please give detail description about the same

[@trevor4714]

I’m disappointed that 2 years development didn’t result in a rubber covering for the gear lever peg. Optional extra? How long would your left boot last?

[@stuartfillingham]

LOL depends how cheap your boots are.

[@rich.dodd1]

I do agree with the rubber, it looks more OEM, same can be said with the footpeg, doesn't look like you took off your gsxr1000 then either. it's not about cheap boots, not bothered about them. Without testing I fear that by the time I've messed about adjusting them they will end up where the continental GT ones are?? I think I would prefer to swap for OEM ones and no doubt cheeper, although once ive seen them in black with brass footpeg and gear shift I might change my mind.

[@stuartfillingham]

@@rich.dodd1 surely the whole point of a custom part is for it not to look OEM?

[@RideWithRen]

I hope to see them for the Himalayan too

[@alokdixit4804]

Hi, which bar end mirrors have you put on your bike? Cost?

[@not_enoughmana]

It doesn’t seem that Motone makes any parts for the Interceptor anymore? (or at least not much) Did they abandon this project? It would be a shame.

[@hartley383]

Thats not an easy part to make, and as you say would take a lot of time and effort to get right. Nice job Motone.

[@RiderZoneCC]

Hello, the primary problem for me with the stock pegs is that my knees rest on the cylinder heads. I'm looking for a solution that not only moves the pegs back, but up as well. I'm 5 foot 7. Would be great if in a future video when the product is out, you could show if this change happens or not.

[@stuartfillingham]

watch this video, it does raise the pegs slightly.

[@rishukhanna4448]

Great work

[@bjoba1]

It's been 4 months and Motone still doesn't show them on their website. Why the delay?

[@nickypaterson-jones4868]

What happened to these in the end - did they ever go into production?

[@slimturnpike]

Nice one. Just looking at these in the video, I'd be concerned my feet would slip more easily from the Mojotone's rounded surfaces than from the flatter, more rectangular-shaped stock pegs. But that's just a visual take, and in practice perhaps it's not the case. Luckily for me, the stock pegs and peg placement function perfectly for my big feet and long legs. When walking the Interceptor while seated, I'm able to place my feet apart far enough that the pegs never touch my calves. I can see how these adjustable replacements would be welcomed by riders with shorter legs or more narrow stance.

[@markellott5620]

Personal preference, but I like rubber on the footrests and levers.

[@slimturnpike]

@@markellott5620 Same here.

[@thomasfrank280]

Yes. Longer legs seem to drop wide of the pegs. Never faced any snagging.

[@Von-by8xz]

Uncle Stew rules merchandise? Sounds positive at this time 👍

[@salsa6]

You previewed these 2 years ago and I still can't get them, it has kept me from getting a Royal Enfield INT650. My feet eon't fit the factory foot controls

[@mikepalmer6071]

They don't seem to have these available on their website

[@barryhughes1612]

A topic very close to my heart, I have tried all the fixes and currently have GT footrest and levers fitted to my Interceptor and they seem to work for me but I wait with baited breath for these to be released especially in brass as my Interceptor has a brass theme! Now Stuart any news on the photo competition please?

[@pslpom]

What is the difference between the Interceptor and GT footpegs?

[@EGF455]

Hey Uncle Stu! Any update on these footrests? I can’t seem to get an answer out of motone?

[@arthurpendragon9079]

Will they fit the Continental? When I sit on one, I wish for footpegs that are a few inches further forward.

[@skb7261]

If the rider foot pegs were designed to be able to lock them in the up position it would solve my main problem with them which is that they hit me in the shins when manually pulling the bike backwards.

[@bjoba1]

It's been over a year, and Motone still doesn't have them on their website. Sam emailed me back in February stating "hopefully this summer". No reply to my inquiry back in July. I figure he must have given up on them.

[@sanatandharma4435]

I want them and I don't have an Enfield!

[@ccooper8785]

It would be great if the made something for my NC750X so I could move my pegs lower and forward without making it difficult to operate the brake and gear shift.

[@snssrinivasan]

When it will be available in India?

[@rifayahamed2640]

These adjustable footrest is available to buy ?

[@gabemotta6]

really interested in them, but 2 years later and still not up on their website

[@gasgas2689]

I think you have handlebar risers. Have you done a video on them? I haven't seen one, and having test ridden a Meteor with higher bars I fancy raising them on my Interceptor. Also I wish RE would make a single seat for the Interceptor, like the Meteor. I looked at Corbin's www and a seat from them would be well over £700 by the time we paid tax and carriage on it. Sorry but I'm not paying that, I'll get off for a rest instead!

[@stuartfillingham]

Yep fitted the risers 2 year ago and published a video.

[@harikrishnannair5920]

Could this be made available for the Continental GT650 as well?

[@brightenjacob]

Its been 5 Months any updates on this uncle Stu? I am sure many including me cant wait to get our hands on this.. 😅😅

[@stuartfillingham]

Not yet im afraid.

[@daveinwla6360]

That's a great improvement over the stock stamped out foot levers - which just screamed "cheaply made". I'd be afraid, though, that they could become the primary visual feature of the bike! :-)

[@colt2206]

I am sure they work great but I think they don’t go with the style of the bike. Can’t believe people are so picky about the location of stock pegs. I have had probably 25 motorcycles and never thought about changing location of stock pegs.
