great video! really interested while watching, i can remember how funny the filming was with me haha

[@ricardorgomez]

As soon as I heard the bike I thought the pipes may have been changed. Sounds FANTASTIC. Hope to get one this year. I would like to do a 2-1 headers which would cut a ton of weight and clean up the look of the bike too. We'll see. Bike looks great!

[@floda8302]

Very, very nice video! Your modifications are absolute useful and make this bike by the way so beautiful! In the past i drove many modern bikes like a Fireblade, BMW S 1000 R and so on, now i'm a proud owner of one of the last Triumph 1050 Speed Triple. All these bikes are equipped with everything, you can wish, but: this Royal Enfield is a really dreambike, a bike for the heart - especially with the mods you made. I think about to get an Interceptor, but i'm not sure, that all the mods are possible here in Germany! Greetings and many thanks for this video!

[@nagenderg25]

Superb mods, you have got a unique and nice taste to transform the interceptor. Bike looks superb and complete with these mods. Thank you 😊

[@WildlifeMoto]

Thank you sir. 👍

[@jameswaterhouse-brown6646]

Awesome mate. I took one for a ride the other day and enjoyed it so much! I now want one.

[@craigmiddleton7669]

Thanks stay positive and have a happy new year. I am going for an Interceptor with a polished metal tank.

[@WildlifeMoto]

Glitter and Dust. Great choice, enjoy!

[@jamesemerson4102]

Great video man. I have the same bike and I have done some of the same mods. Air filter, S&S pipes, black handlebars, tec bike parts levers. I would like to change the tail light as it is quite massive which is nice and safe but doesn't look great. Very interesting what you said about how much of a difference the suspension makes and also the throttle. I love the bike and yours looks great!

[@WildlifeMoto]

Thanks James. Yes the suspension really makes a difference.

[@stephen139]

Now, i can upgrade my bike. Love your work mate 👏🏻👍🏻

[@tomstockell9481]

Excellent video - after watching this, have fitted the motone risers and LSL bars its made the ergonomics so much better, thanks again

[@WildlifeMoto]

Cheers Tom. Glad it help you find a good set up.

[@blackskunk54]

The Interceptor is a bike I am interested in, had a ride today along with the Super Meteor and loved both. Decisions, decisions. I like the bars you have put on with the risers. I am 6' 1" and find the INT650 a bit small but the bar mods would help. If I get one I will drop the pegs as well. One thing I found with the INT650 was a stiff clutch, like back in the day. You explained your stance very well, I think that helps a lot. Keep it up.

Absolutely brilliant mods. Sadly not all the mods you showed seem to be available here in India, but a great video to explore what can be done. Thanks 🔥

Great video and so well presented. Thank you very much. Have you thought about upgrades for grippier tires yet? I'm not too happy with the stock set.

[@WildlifeMoto]

Yes, I will replace mine once the stockers are worn out. Maybe continental.

[@grahambraid3610]

I have really enjoyed your video’s,really informative. I have bought the same bike as yours,and the plan is to convert it into a Scrambler,got similar mods to yours, Plus Arrow high level two into one pipe,loads of stuff from KSpeed in Thailand and a really trick CNC speedo from Cognito Moto in the States. You have inspired me to do a video diary of the build,as I usually just post my build pictures on my Street Tuff Customs Insta and FB feeds! 😁👍

[@WildlifeMoto]

Thanks Graham. Yes the RE scrambler builds look amazing, good luck with the build and the videos. Let me know when you launch the channel!

[@edwardblackman6859]

I'm going to be doing a number of these mods on my Continental GT Black Magic. Only had it in September, and already replaced the stock cans with Lexmoto slip-ons and they sound phenomenal, even if the branding on them is a little questionable. DNA performance filter was the first thing to be changed, as were the mirrors for the motogadget mo.spy bar end ones, which are wonderful. As for others to come, definitely going to go for the YSS front and rear upgrades, as too many owners and reviewers have raved about them for me to simply ignore how good they are and may even sort out the brake and clutch lever setup, but I'm happy with it for now (and only 500 miles since picking it up). Your setup is looking stunning though and that sound... oh sweet Zeus that sound!

[@WildlifeMoto]

Sounds like you are well on your way to creating an awesome bike. The YSS shocks are indeed a great upgrade, you’ll be able to really push on with confidence. Next big mod for me will be the tyres, which should help too. Ride safe 👍

[@user-te4pz1mf7e]

Hi! I’m sure I’ve seen a full vid of you fitting the Domino throttle? Mines just arrived and now I can’t seem to find your video. I’ll almost certainly need step by step instructions 😂

Osam dude plz install the big bore kit next, even now u made this bike 2k costlier but is amazing ❤️👍🙏

[@neoanderson1490]

I agree, the Interceptor is fantastic straight out of the box, but the fuel booster plug and DNA air filter are essential first upgrades, acceleration is just so much smoother. I've ordered YSS front suspension and TEC rear shock and exhaust upgrades so it looks like I'm on the right track! Cheers.

[@WildlifeMoto]

Very much on the right track. Enjoy!

[@martinowl]

Hi, have you fitted bar risers?

[@neoanderson1490]

@@martinowl I've ordered them together with the suspension ... Because I'm a short arse, not because they are needed for the front suspension.

Great videos, keep them coming please.

[@jimmyjam8795]

All nice mods, Grip puppies are worth fitting if you're interested. I love the larger radius for hand comfort, highly recommended.

[@WildlifeMoto]

These look great, I’ll give them a try. Cheers.

[@eddyice2004]

Plz take care while washing the bike, if the grip puppies absorb water then it's not giving that cushioning like before.

[@matthewjackson3034]

I'm actually considering swapping in my Ninja SX for one of these. A good practical bike for everyday riding.

*Phenomenal video!*

[@SteveW67]

Like what you’ve done really made it personal 👍. Just bought an Interceptor 650, got same pipes and dna air filter. I’m looking at springs and shox next although I won’t do as much as you’ve done I kinda like the old 70’s look with slight mods. Good work 😎👍.

[@WildlifeMoto]

Congrats on the new bike. Yes it looks great out of the box. Have a look at the 2Win shocks from The Shock Factory if you want something more inline with the style of the bike. These were going to be my choice but they had some production issues during the first wave of C-19. It might be sorted now.

[@SteveW67]

Will take a look thanks, I’ve also fitted motone bar risers and maybe will change bars for something black and lighter, which model of lsl bars did you use ? I don’t want anything too wide and start to get into cable changes etc. plus I need filtering capabilities so wider bars can be a problem. Thanks 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@WildlifeMoto]

Yes you need to be careful with the Motone risers and aftermarket bars. When I installed the LSL naked bars I had to re-route the throttle cables behind the forks and mess around with the routing of the break line. I also cut about 1.2cm off the end of each side with a pipe cutter. I'm currently running the LSL Superbike bars with a re-routed brake line and longer throttle cables (Domino). It's a bit of a pain.

[@kneedown1980]

Steve I 've got hagon shocks on mine and would recommend them. Still have that old school classic cool and are more than enough for the bike. Up front I went for the ktech cartridge kit, expensive but worth every penny.

[@charliebaker8012]

The Shock Factory have just done a production run of the Interceptor 2Win shocks. I took delivery and fitted a set a few days ago. Unfortunately I haven't been able to try them out yet so can't comment on how they perform but if they work as well as they look I will be very pleased.

[@DarrenWellhoefer]

Learn to trail brake maybe. The original is good if set up right. Its a bike that can just push the TON. Im 120kg and with a 68kg pillion handling hs never been an issue for me but go ahead and spend up large.

[@WildlifeMoto]

Cheers. Probably around £2,500 for these mods.

[@rakshanpoojary439]

😅 Adding up a little, we can get a new INT 650 in India..

[@Britishshooter]

Consider fitting the Conti Road Attack 3 tyre. Best backroad tyre on the planet in my experience (and it won best backroad tyre in Germany several years back to back). Incredible predictable grip even from cold, deep groves that shift water fast and even allow grip on light off road use, with exceptional longevity too. Best of all, is simply the 'feel' they have for peg to peg scratching, confidence inspiring.

[@DucNgn]

fancy your mods! are the domino switches plug and play for interceptor 650 or you have to cut and connect the wire? thanks for the info

[@martinowl]

You have done some great mods to your bike. The most important thing is that you are happy with them. So far I have held off from the air filter/ booster plug, not yet fully convinced about it. I think the motone bar risers are the best looking I have seen so far, but I am quite happy with the standard set up. I like the idea of the yss front suspension but I’ve only seen it installed on bikes with bar risers, so I’m holding off on that until I see it successfully installed with standard bars. Keep up the good work.

[@WildlifeMoto]

Cheers Martin. Yes, I'm a bit in love with the way it turned out. Agree about the fuel plug, these is no real evidence that it delivers more power. I would say it "feels" smoother though (subjective I know)

[@TonMachielsen]

@@WildlifeMoto Well, it doesn't deliver more power. If you read the free e-book on www.boosterplug.com/shop/cms-fuel_injection_book.html they actually explain that it doesn't and why. Very educational book, BTW. Ah, and no stakes in the Boosterplug company, BTW. I just love that purchase.

[@WildlifeMoto]

Thanks for the link. Will check it out

[@neoanderson1490]

@@WildlifeMoto the booster plug is definitely smoother, particularly at low revs. It used to feel on the verge of stalling when doing low rev manoeuvres.

[@neoanderson1490]

Look at TEC bike parts simple mod of the air intake cover as a first step if you're not totally convinced about the air filter. He cuts the top off the plastic cover to allow more airflow. The standard setup is very restrictive.

[@WildlifeMoto]

Thank you 🙏

[@andyhorton1472]

Its interesting about the booster plug. I've not seen any tangible evidence it works. I'm definitely going for your choice of pipes as I agree the sound is lovely.

[@WildlifeMoto]

Power wise, me neither, there is no hard evidence. It feels a little smoother for sure. The pipes, yes! You’ll love them.

[@SteveW67]

I fitted a booster plug on my Bonneville T120 and it definitely stopped low speed snatchiness in town, but I’ve not noticed this to be a problem on the Interceptor so doubt I’ll bother. Ditto for pipes running with baffles in and they’re excellent haven’t tried baffles out yet.

[@TonMachielsen]

Conti GT here. The Booster Plug completely changes the character of the bike, especially low down. So smooth. And no, don't expect extra power. It just snoothes the power the bike has out better. Best 150 bucks i have spent on the bike so far.

[@kneedown1980]

Trust me the booster plug works. It just makes the bike much smoother and more responsive at low speed / revs.

[@barryhughes1612]

The booster plug does make a difference providing the exhausts are freeflow and the airbox DNA mod has been done.

[@carlosellatigo9378]

Great Video! does anyone know if the YSS front kit used here will also fit a 2021 Continental gt650,,,I can't seem to find an equivalent kit, only for up to 2019??

There's an American dude who swapped the rear for a 180, top fella. Good account, too.

Hey I am looking to buy this as a daily commute as well as doing a bit of touring with my wife. How do you feel hunk it’ll handle touring with a pillion? I currently have a VFR1200F which is a beast but I am just not enjoying it as much as my older RE Bullet I owned about 8 years ago. Sometimes faster is not always better. This bike is really appealing, just not sure it’ll have enough power for both me and my wife. Not expecting on doing 180km 2 up but I would like to keep up with highway traffic

[@WildlifeMoto]

Thanks Steve, i'll check them out

[@Jay_Speed]

Here in Belgium and Luxembourg and France you need a conformity certificate for other exhaust pipes, as far as I know this is also the case in Austria and Italy. For that reason I took the Akrapovic pipe of my Yamaha FZ1 Fazer when I bought it second hand and went back to a stock pipe. There was a conformity certificate with the bike but the police in those country's has always the last word and you don't want a 250 euro fine when driving there. Something for English bikers to remember when they come to the continent. The other mods of you look interesting, I am interested in the Domino XM2 Throttle mod.

[@WildlifeMoto]

Good point, always worth staying on the right side of the law. These pipes are "e marked" and confirm with BSAU 193A. They also come with a bunch of paperwork that I didn't read. Police in the UK generally will leave you alone unless you take the absolute micky. These pipes don't turn heads like the Akra on my Tuono haha.

[@hagaxxx]

What about a wider rear tire around 150? Smart and beautiful upgrades man. Smart way to enhance such amazing bike. Congrats from Belgium.

[@WildlifeMoto]

Thank you! Yes, I've been looking into different tires for the rear. I might stay with the standard size as I think skinny tires work well. Still researching :)

[@frederickwoods5943]

Regarding tires; I bought a Bridgestone "Spitfire 11F" in 110/90 × 18 for the front; it brings the speedometer/odometer close to reality. For the rear a Pirelli Phantom SportComp in 150/70 R18 which may require a sprocket change; current is a 140/70 "Battlax" BT 45r. Took forever for the stock Pirelli tires to wear out.

[@rjpm92]

I'll chuck another name into the grip debate then. Have a look at Beston grips, nice barrel shape on them to give a good diameter where you need it but don't look too fat. Plus suit the look of the bike as they're classic grips anyway

[@WildlifeMoto]

Thanks mate. I’ll check them out.

[@cksajeevkumar]

That exhaust note 👍🏼❤️ Btw, are you comfortable with the stock seat setup? Is it suitable for a long distance trip?

Hi Simon. Most of the mods are listed in the description. This bike (with all the mods) is still less than a T120.

[@scotttiger627]

How you keep your electricals and other internal parts so clean is a a wonder . Please give some tips....the inner parta of my interceptor looks horrible now.

[@WildlifeMoto]

I'll make a video on this soon. I always keep the bike coated in ACF50 and use various waxes and sealers on the paint and wheels. This way when the bike gets dirty, it's pretty easy to get it clean again. When the engine casing (the painted parts) gets dirty, I just use a gentle degreaser and a brush to clean it up for before the dirt gets burnt in.

[@arjunudhayakumar9459]

Exhaust sound👌👌 Does DNA air filter void warranty? Will it need ecu remap?

It won't need an ECU remap. Any changes to your bike may cause issues with the warranty depending on the nature of the problem. Best to check with RE on specifics. Cheers.

If you put a DNA filter on don’t just start up and ride away. Switch on (don’t Rev) and leave to warm up to operating temp (12-14mins). The ecu will then automatically adjust the settings.

Another enjoyable WM Enfield vid, Thank You. One question.......@1.21 and 1.47 (and again @8.17) it looks like the YSS fork cap isn't screwed tightly all the way home, as the o-ring still seems to be visible along with a 2 - 3mm gap between the cap and stanchion top. Is that correct, or is there some reason for this, as I can see you've put red line-up marks on the caps and stanchions? Incidentally, when the bike is behind you whilst you're talking in the garage the gap no longer appears to be there! Can you clarify please? Thanks in advance.

[@WildlifeMoto]

Thank you. The caps are only hand tightened and I’ve used the red marker to ensure they don’t move (or if they do it’s obvious). On the close-ups you can see the o-ring but the cap is on pretty tight. On the wide shots you don’t notice it, but it’s still the same.

[@Gambo916]

@@WildlifeMoto Thanks for the reply. Is there a reason why you've only hand tightened the caps, instead of tightening them down with a spanner, socket or torque wrench? I'm guessing the gap and o-ring wouldn't be visible then? Thanks again.

@@Gambo916 I guess I could crank it down with a spanner, however I’d advise against going too hard. It’s an aluminium part so the thread could strip quite easily. It’s down pretty tight so I’m confident it won’t come loose 🤞

@@WildlifeMoto Thanks again for your reply WM. Looking forward to more RE vids.

Awesome mods...

[@WildlifeMoto]

Thanks Ravi!

[@ianaldridge227]

do you somehow have a matte finish on your ravishing red tank or is that just a trick of the focus on the camera?

[@WildlifeMoto]

Just the camera :)

[@TypicalKannadiga]

Have you done a satin black wrap to the tank ?

[@WildlifeMoto]

No that’s just the lens on the camera making it look soft.

[@johnsnelson7192]

How much additional money total have you spent?

[@nigelcrowley8529]

Mate you've pretty much doubled the value of that bike!!!

[@kevinnashskitchen3517]

Double the cost or resale value? 😂

[@reyerskleve]

It looks like you made the setup more sportive. I am wondering why you didn’t go for the continental GT instead of the interceptor. The Continental should suit your style of ride much more, doesn’t it? Why did you go for the interceptor?

[@WildlifeMoto]

I guess I prefer to be more upright. Same reason I got the Aprillia V4 Tuono over the the RSV4. This interceptor rides like a classic supermoto - love it.

Hi where did the scorpion pipes come from? I can't find them on scorpion exhausts website.... Thanks

[@WildlifeMoto]

I got mine through my dealer, but you can also order them here www.royalenfieldshop.co.uk/home/722-royal-enfield-interceptor-650-silencers.html

What year is your bike? Asking because I have Int650 2021(manufactured in 2020) and don’t know if the booster plug will work

[@WildlifeMoto]

2020 - so EU4

[@angellosmalefakis1321]

It need a full or partial sport fairing. It lacks a good fairing!

[@dalewintle9969]

Just bought a glitter and dust 2019 already ordered DNA filter , booster plug ,sump guard , fork Gators , short Fly screen , mini engine bars and more to come 🤦‍♂️

[@WildlifeMoto]

Great choice of bike and mods! Love the glitter and dust.

Sorry I do not know a good way to search the comments. I made a cursory visual search at least. When upgrading the break levers there should also be a reservoir for the break oil. The stock reservoir is not compatible with the new levers. What is the part number or how would I locate this part?

[@WildlifeMoto]

I'm using a Rizoma reservoir on this set up. Rizoma CT027. I also used CT451 arm to mount it.

[@terryholland9417]

@@WildlifeMoto Have to say one other note that would help is that the is no way to re-attach the stock mirrors, so after fixing the Brembo levers and front pads I also have no place to attach the mirrors. Too excited about getting the breaks working again that I did not think about the mirrors. First trip was to find round bar end mirrors. Well the stock mirrors were not wonderful in any case. I have to say that the Brembo levers make a world of difference for small hands. Though ... to be careful the tighter you make them the more grabby they are. So I've been having to let them out little by little to find a sweet spot of comfortable reach and not too grabby.

[@Shantanu_Upadhyaya]

Do your wheels contain tubes? How are you going to manage it in case of puncture?

[@WildlifeMoto]

Yes I have tubes. If I get a puncture, I whip out my phone and call the RAC. Unless it's a long ride, in which case I bring a repair kit and a couple of tire spoons.

[@thomaswrzosek8510]

Hi could you confirm if cables must be changed with Motone Risers + LSL SuperbikeBars? Thanks for the videos it very useful. Cheers from France

[@WildlifeMoto]

Thanks. No need to change the cables. 👍

@@WildlifeMoto thanks man

[@steevob8513]

Do the Brembo brake pads fit on the 2022 int650 model as well?

[@WildlifeMoto]

I don’t think the calliper spec has changed.

[@joaovilarinho1362]

Roughly, how much have you spent on those mods ?
