Told you they were good! Love mine...and as you know, even better baffles out.....

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Thanks again Andy. I love them! 👍🏍❤️

​@@WheelieGoodTV hi Dave. I have a question about your bike that I noticed in the video. At approx 5:10 mark, your bike seems to make the same whining noise under acceleration that mine makes. Can you recall roughly how many miles the bike had covered at that point and if the noise has lessened over time? Regards, Dave👍

[@leroybrown640]

Just bought a pair myself... its like a new bike..!! Such a meaty sound with those baffles out...

[@kendoonan2484]

Ooh that sounds good!!! A definite improvement.

[@andrewbarton2]

No wonder RE are selling bikes hand over fist. Great, simple, basic British twins that are oiltight and reliable. The worlds been waiting for these since 1938!

[@andrewbarton2]

Hoodlum heaven! Love it!!!

The days definitely looks brighter with the TEC pipes, for sure.

Tec Cannon Pipes...Clap Clap Clap...me encanta ese sonido para una 650

[@jimmyb4982]

The new pipes definitely unleash some of the bike's character that's eager to be heard.

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Totally Jimmy!👍🏍

[@ΕΛΛΗΝ]

Best sound i hear!!! Thanks man!

[@chrisbittlestone9264]

Tec do great stuff, Dave 👍! My bro has an Inter and has the same pies as you whereas I have put their 2-1 Stinger system on my Conti. Both sound just ace and save tonnes of weight over the stockers. Enjoy!

Awesome mate! Just traded my Himalayan for GT650 and was thinking to upgrade exhaust. S&S are about a mortgage payment but these sound just as good for 1/3 price😎

[@georgesaint4417]

I'm sold, great sound, I will be investing soon. Your continental looks great, a whole lot of bike for under 10k.

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Echoing my thoughts exactly which made me buy it. I love it!

[@stevemiller1203]

So much more fun to ride with good sounding exhaust!

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Totally agree Steve.

[@daveinwla6360]

The sound on decel was best, IMO. 1) Do you have the stock air filter or a low restriction filter? 2) Do you have a Booster Plug installed? 3) It would be nice to hear the difference between TEC baffles in and TEC baffles out.

[@WheelieGoodTV]

I just have the stock air filter and no booster plug. I’ll do a comparison vid when I return home next month of the baffles in and out.

[@cool...............]

To my ears, these are one of the best sounding bikes, period.

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Yep. Totally agree.

[@P51D-Mustang]

Just ordered a GT yesterday for summer, just like yours in chrome tank. Even the salesman suggested new aftermarket pipes lol. I can't wait! 🤪💨

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Good man. You won’t be disappointed. They’re fantastic!

[@P51D-Mustang]

@@WheelieGoodTV thanks, I even bought a matching RE chrome Mr Clean helmet to go with it lol!

[@peterbrewer6104]

The new pipes do look good, although it would have been good to have a comparison between stock, new with baffles & new without. Loving the channel; keep it up 👍

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Yes you’re correct Peter. I might do a quick little sound test video for this when I get chance. I’m not home for a month so will do when I get back.👍🏍

[@Robert-ds8cd]

Bike sounds great. I have 23 interceptor euro5, going to do the same + dna filter and fuel x lite probably voids warranty though. Great channel 👍

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Thanks Robert, yes I often thought about the dna filter too.

[@Banditmanuk]

Sounds great and a proper bargain.

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Yeah, very cheap for the huge difference they make.

[@AuldhannRua]

Thats a much deeper, bassier sound alright. A good investment i'd say. Enjoy the good weather on the Breffni highways and byways

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Cheers Dylan! They sound amazing in real life.

[@MartinRoche-y1l]

Just got mine done at royal Enfield Adare tes fantastic sounds like an old ducati

[@ChaseJasperDown]

Yeah that sounds a lot better and more throaty. Great side by side comparison!!!

[@CRAZYLEGSONABIKE]

They sound absolutely amazing suit the look of the bike if that makes sense 👍

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Totally makes sense. They’ve completed it for me.

[@monkeypolicd]

Its so hard to find aftermarket parts in US for Royal Enfield.

[@artiecisneros4691]

I recently put a deposit on the Blacked-out Int 650 here in San Diego and it should arrive either in January or February 2024, God willing. Have you found aftermarket parts here in the US for Royal Enfield? 😎

[@carlosnordt3109]

Quite nice indeed.

[@fatboyandyp]

Sounds great

[@paulrodgers9162]

Very nice Dave love those Tec Cannon Didgeridoos 😝

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Yeah, I love em!😜🏍

[@murphy1554]

Sound great Dave 👍

[@Mieke3133]

Only my personal opinion, but I've never been tempted to put loud exhausts on my bikes. They do sound good, but if I was riding all day for several hours, I would find the sound annoying and fatiguing. Maybe that's what comes of riding BMW Boxers the last few years. 😀 When I was 16 I had a Triumph Tiger Terrier (150cc) and I used a broom handle to knock the baffles out of the silencer. The result was a loud exhaust note, but the performance suffered with loss of power and the fuel consumption shot up. I never did it again.

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Fair enough buddy. The slip ons haven’t affected anything on the RE I’m pleased to say, only the looks and in a positive way. 👍🏍

[@The9meister]

Add character to the bike

[@robertmacdonald7260]

Wheely good pipes! Do you have any tips for capturing exhaust sound with the DJI mic? Will it work inside a bum bag on your back or should the mic be attached to the back of the bike?

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Yes a bum bag is perfect. I’ve also mounted it under the seat with bath sponge wrapped around it and taped. Works a treat! 👌🏍️

[@marcrapp4004]

Very nice sound.

[@edwinrex2579]

I wonder how many brand new exhaust pipes are sitting on garage shelves. There must be a better solution. Come on bike makers have a rethink even part ex would help.

[@duongly8815]

Now that's a good side-by-side comparison. In the long-term, do you still like it or you think it's too loud? Thank you!

[@WheelieGoodTV]

I still LOVE it. It’s perfect!!

[@michaeljoesmith3977]

Weight savings over stock pipes? That's important too .

[@demusicaes]

Hi, very nice bvideo, several angles and the sound y precise. I have a question, in terms of size, is the length of the TECs the same as the originals? And with regard to the width, does the bike remain the same width or is it reduced slightly in this sense? regards from Colombia

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Hi, yes same length but slightly narrower by 2 inches.

[@blueyondermoto]

Hi Dave, have you still got the Continental? I am thinking of possibly getting one as a number 2 bike to my V100. The TEC slip ons sound excellent and not silly money.

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Hi, Joni sold my Enfield only because I never really rode it and got offered a great price for it. The TEC slip ons were brilliant! A great sound from them, a top product.

[@timothylear2770]

a lot richer note😎👍

[@joebromberg]

They definitely better, only they remind me the sound of two stroke 175ccm without a pipe🤔

[@Snoosemoose]

Great bike, great sound! The only problem for me personally is that the chunkiness of the stock silencers is part of the beauty of the bike, I'd love to have the tec cannon sound without losing those hefty pots. All the aftermarket exhausts I've seen seem slimmer or shorter which is a shame.

[@paulsire]

Much improved sound, as a matter of intetest, how much extra had you pay in duty, custom/courier admin charges?

[@WheelieGoodTV]

I paid €28. Not too bad I suppose.

[@TSH2020]

It sounds great but i like the stock sound on my int650 but i hate the size n looks of it

[@mravi97]

On the fence about these - would love the extra depth of tone, but I'm concerned about turning into an obnoxious bike - how do non-bike/car people react to it? Any negative feedback?

[@WheelieGoodTV]

None at all. Everywhere I go people just want to see the bike and take photos of it.

[@mravi97]

@@WheelieGoodTV That's very good, thanks! You may have just contributed to another Interceptor getting louder! hahaha

[@fishmaniachannel]

Tec rocksssss👌👌👌👌

[@davidjaniec3838]

Good video for sound comparison. However, I am stunned that you mention neither performance changes (low, mid, high rpm flexibility or power), nor weight savings, nor required tuning mods (if any) to get the best out of them. As a racer for over 5 decades I can assure you many pipe mods do NOT help with performance. I too, appreciate a great sounding bike, but not without improvement in the more important factors.

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Fair point David and totally understand. I was just so excited about the transformation of the sound that I didn’t even think about the stuff you mentioned. For what it’s worth I just clipped them on with no issues regarding idling etc. I don’t notice any increase or decrease in power or weight either. Hope this helps a bit….🫣

[@grampskraka6976]

Wayyyyyy better

[@motoren_71]

Are the trims standard? Or do you have to buy the TC ones? THANK YOU

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Hi, I honestly can’t remember. I know you can buy them separately but can’t remember if they come as a standard part of the silencer kit. Their website will tell. Tec Cannon

[@mred7030]

nice , did you remember to let the engine management get used to them < 15 mins ? >

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Sure did Mr Ed. 👍🏍

[@notstevelam]

does this really do anything? ive seen other videos where people have just let the engine run for 10-15 min and they have noticed no difference when switching pipes. is this an actual confirmed thing it actually does?

[@giorgisyr1]

Any weight saving with the slip-ons ? I know that the stock headers are also very heavy but I was wondering what is the difference between stock and aftermarket slip-ons.

[@WheelieGoodTV]

There is a very noticeable weight difference Giorgos in favour of the TEC being much lighter. I should have weighed them before I fitted them but just couldn’t wait to get them on🤪. All told, I’m not sure if the performance would be affected hugely by the weight saving whilst riding but pushing the bike around the garage is very noticeable.

[@busboy3232]

Just to confirm this is just the TEC trumpet silencers and stock oem headers correct?

[@WheelieGoodTV]

They’re the TEC Cannon slip ons.

[@michaelblandina7405]

Are any additional modifications required if these are used?

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Nope. Just pop them on and all good to go. I’ve got a video coming out on Saturday morning about whether to keep the baffles in or out which may be of interest to you.

[@chrisshepherd8082]

Is your 650 a euro 5 or 4 ? I wonder if none standard pipes are a problem on euro 5 ?

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Hi Chris. It’s Euro 5 and no probs at all. Idles perfectly and runs smooth across the whole range.

[@Motobrummie]

Hi They sound great I have a euro 5 model can you ride it with baffles out as tec told me not do ride without them in , thanks
