Interceptor 650 Project Ep.5 - New exhaust fitting, road test & sound comparison!

[@mancavemoto]

Since making and releasing the video, Sold Out have reduced the price to £795 inc delivery (within the UK)

[@DucatiDale]

Quality may differ obviously but it looks like a £100 bit of Chinese pipe off eBay £800 seems Ludacris

[@beverleynorth4914]

Yep, I think quality would differ. Buy cheap, buy twice. Is Ludicris a Greek god?

[@mancavemoto]

I thought Ludacris was a rapper?

[@threeboardsfour]

@@DucatiDale I agree that the pricing is steep. There's a company that sells 304 Stainless Exhaust Parts in the Uk and it looks like you could buy all the components for £300 or less, retail. It's not a one piece custom bent, appears to be standard parts welded together. Looks are a personal thing, but I prefer the look of the original exhaust, I don't like these cut down exhausts.

[@mancavemoto]

It’s a low volume production made by hand in the UK. I think the price reflects that. The end can isn’t and off the shelf item so you couldn’t buy the components for £300. As with any product you have to factor in production costs, development and some kind of margin. Appearing to be and the reality are different things

[@colindeans5972]

Its a great looking bike but I don't like that exhaust, aesthetically or audibly.

[@mancavemoto]

Fair enough, it’s not for everyone

[@pnjp3763]

Agreed 100%

[@sscbkr48]

The stock header mimics the frame angle. This looks to be more vertical. Angle and length are subjective, like the time I bought a made to measure suit. I told the tailor what I wanted. It looked fantastic! until I put it on. 😞

[@jonathanfredrick9643]

@@sscbkr48 yeah.. The header pipe messes up the lines on the bike..

I like the noise actually but I also think it's a let down aesthetically

[@terenceokeeffesmotorcyclestuff]

When I was in my 30’s I had a Harley Lowrider Convertible with the baffles knocked out. It was obnoxiously loud but I loved it. Now I’ve matured (really?) I regret the noise I inflicted on others with that bike. The weight saving on these is unreal, something else.

[@mancavemoto]

Yep this is only a 650, I was was being rough on the throttle in the video.

[@dongraham1559]

Looks nice, but after a while, for me, the noise would be infuriating. Think would be much more tolerable with a baffle, and would be interested to know the difference.

[@mancavemoto]

There’s a set of baffles on the way, so I’ll make another video when they are on 👍

[@TerraMagnus]

This sounds great. Another benefit: you can now fit larger panniers if you’d like.

[@mancavemoto]

That’s a good point

[@nigeltankard6977]

A very simple modification to make on the bike. The transformation is great,massive improvement from the stock exhaust system

[@mancavemoto]

I thought so

[@a13bkd62]

Great update Tony. I fitted a different make but similar exhaust to my Scrambler Icon recently...I learnt that you can ride quietly but adding the db killer makes it much easier for other folk to live with. I suspect the same will be true for this exhaust. Cheers

[@crumpet_]

Great video series, wonderful bike. It's cool seeing all the options for this bike, Interesting exhaust.

[@jchapman4494]

I have my heart set of getting the TEC 2-1 exhaust for my Interceptor, but that short shot exhaust looks and sounds awesome.

[@ruahinesrider]

TEC 2-1 are Chinese made & old technology with springs & exposed welds.There 2-2 are look better quality.Tec 2-1 definitely do the job though & there isn't to much on the market for 2-1 exhaust system for R.E.Tec,S&S but have mini cats, Verex 2-1 in Ausie but only 38mm diameter not 45mm but look great & high quality.SS Moto Corp make a 2-1 H pipe system.

[@mancavemoto]

Sold Out have told me they have a 2 into 1 header in developement, with a choice of end cans

[@waynedavis7245]

Thanks for the warning for those of us wearing ear pods . Much appreciated.

[@jameslast3192]

Great looking, simple change over but hell of a loud. The rozzas might not be too keen on those nor the neighbours! I’d have a smile on my face though. Here in NZ the cops are super tight with restrictions like exhaust volume because we have a huge outlaw biker problem here, so all bikes get extra scrutiny particularly if loud!

[@ruahinesrider]

The one with baffle be the one to get that way you have a choice between loud & not as loud cause it did sound loud.On longer rides be to loud even with ear plugs.Weight saving is always good.

[@mancavemoto]

Yep, this is their first version and a removable baffle is in the works. I’ll try it when it’s available. I might invest in a db meter too to get a proper reading on this one.

[@ruahinesrider]

@@mancavemoto Similar to Baak shorty's exhaust.They make their's in their workshop too I think & a very high quality.

[@ItsBeenDanBefore]

Definitely a fan of the exhaust, sounds just about right. You can hear the engine noise but it's not just absolutely deafening and looks significantly better. Bikes like this need this style of pipe. My only problem would be the price. I do appreciate the fact it's a British business, but the Trident exhaust I was looking at for my Triumph Sprint ST 1050 was half the money from a British company with about triple the welding and materials needed. But, hey, that's just the cheapskate in me talking

[@mancavemoto]

Yep, and I was of course being heavy handed with it. At the end when I’m riding them rough the village you can hear it’s not obnoxious. It’s not badly priced compared to some of the competition, but being entirely made by hand in the UK does affect the pricing obviously.

[@Wopadas]

I do like the exhaust but man $1000 is nuts.

[@mancavemoto]

I think it’s a problem with small batch handmade production. If they end up scaling up then it may get cheaper. They have dropped it to £795 now

[@artiecisneros4691]

It looks and sounds wonderful. Compared to some Harleys here in California, it's not very loud. My Meteor could use an exhaust upgrade, although it sounds better with the DNA filter and cover. Thanks for sharing.

[@mancavemoto]

Yep some people are losing their shit over it, and in reality it’s not that loud. It does give it an old Brit bike sound for sure.

I've heard many people say that two in to ones make the Inty look worse from the left side but no-one ever shows it from the left !

[@pujabelgian]

RBB WORLD (on YT) opened both ends of a stock exhaust.. it sounded unbelievably good. Your exhaust sounds not unlike a Bertoni motors (YT channel) where he simply removed the mufflers and ran the headers. Loud but not much louder than your shortys. A 2-1 tec stinger might also look good for an urban scrambler vibe.

[@grahamtricker4103]

Nicely made exhaust but I think it is a little bit short which looks a little strange...

[@mancavemoto]

I think once I've made a few more mods it'll balance out. It might not be a long term solution depending on where the build goes

[@christopheboudier94]

I’m not a big fan of loud bikes, but these pipes look beautifully made ! Note that the tuning of the ECU may reduce a little bit the sound.

[@mancavemoto]

Yep, and I’ll try the db killers when they are released, but go easy on the throttle and it’s actually not too bad.

[@mattwilliams9758]

Enjoying this series, and the pipes are a great addition. I think RE missed a trick by not having an Interceptor with a scrambler/FT vibe. Cooperb do a Desert Sled upgrade, and BSA had a scrambler build of their new Gold Star on their stand… so there’s an appeal to this style of bike. The manufacturers need to start appealing to a younger generation of riders. You’ll get a few grumbles from older riders tho 😂

[@mancavemoto]

I was almost going to go down that route, but i'd done a similar thing with my Triumph Street Twin. Having said that, a few changes and it could be changed up easily in the future.

[@mickcresswell1031]

Love the look and sound of that exhaust! Not seen that one before, so well done for bringing it to our attention 👍

[@mancavemoto]

No worries Mick, they have a couple more in the works including a 2 into 1 high scrambler pipe

[@elwynjames5791]

Sounds great Tony.

[@MillfieldWheels]

From what I understand the O2 sensors can be disconnected from under the front of the tank which saves twisting the wires.

[@mancavemoto]

IT was only a couple of turns, so no issue. Quicker and easier than disconnecting

[@TroyJPerez]

Not a fan of the additional noise, wish they were quieter. I do like how they are out of the way of the rear wheel though which is great for maintenance.

[@ChrisMurphy-lg3pj]

I think the short shots improve the look of the bike, and I do love the sound, BUT, £800 for the smallest exhaust available on the market !! They are taking the proverbial ...... enjoying the series of upgrades so far ....

[@mancavemoto]

I think it’s down to being hand made in the UK with a small production run. Cheers more mods to come

[@bobz1736]

Great vid. Nicely made pipe.... but... I think it looks terrible on the bike - standard design suits it better. And much too LOUD ! On a long journey that would drive me nuts 🤪

[@mancavemoto]

Cheers, Fair enough! its not going to be for everyone, and once the other mods are made it should make more sense on the bike. It's certainly not an exhaust to switch to on an otherwise stock Interceptor. Once i've got some more changes made i'll decide if it stays long term.

[@MOTOUK1]

Love that bike Tony, maybe a tad loud for me . Can’t wait to get my Bonneville to start tinkering 👍

[@mancavemoto]

I’ll be looking at the db killer, when that’s launched.

[@grahamtricker4103]

Make sure it isn't a euro 5 bike as the ECU will go into limp mode if the exhaust is changed on the latest Triumphs.

[@jonwright490]

these pipes would really suit the new 650 meteor probably more so than the Interceptor. Removable baffle option is a must though.

This new exhaust sounds great, looks great..Plus a large weight saving, which is always a step in the right direction...but l would consider it a little too loud. Probably okay for a quick 'blast' and hooligan moment but longer rides..Umm!. Would the sound become fatiguing? The note of the exhaust being more important than the actual volume .Earplugs worn to combat wind noise perhaps..

[@mancavemoto]

It’s actually not too bad, I was being pretty agggressive with the throttle. It’s not a bike I use on long rides to be fair and I always ride in earplugs anyway, but yep it would get tiresome on a day long ride

I have to be honest, I’m not a fan of loud hooligan exhausts, BUT, I also have to admit that I think this exhaust tone (and the look) suits the style of bike you’re creating with the mods much, much better than the stock pipes. So, well done from me, just don’t come riding it round here 😂😂
