When I saw 👀 Steve's bike thought it was yours for about 1sec then noticed the Reverlry headers first which are same shape as down pipe & then the rims which look like 18" Indian made Rims but not sure. Plenty of black bits like headlight brackets & heel guard & bike looks really good.Great Job Steve.
@@kommonman.5011 I had a bit of an incident regarding loss of pix. If you send me some nice pix again to jamesengland1000@gmail.com, I’ll gladly do a video!
@@markoevo thanks for that. I think it illustrates how versatile these Royal Enfields are…..there’s so much scope for personal preferences about so much with the bikes. True customisation, one might say.
Just watched the clip, Chris. Looks and sounds great! Can you please summarise what the advantages are of changing camshafts, efffcts on performance etc? That would be great to know. Well done on a successful swap!! Kudos
@@internetpolificationit's has more lift and duration, so it won't run out of puff at 6k rpm now. It keeps building right to the red line. It is going to bhp UK in Burnley in march for a full Dyno remap. With the pipes and filter id expect 55bhp at the rear wheel. About as far as I'd like to go with it, otherwise clutch upgrades start to become necessary. Very simple job, needs 8 new head bolts, a cam chain tensioner gasket and clutch case gasket. The manual states to tourqe up to 15nm then 35nm then 270 degrees rotation with an angle torque guage. I didn't use this as there's no room really, so I marked the head in 90 degree increments and the bolt and did it that way, 90 degree at a time up to 270. Sounds complicated but really isn't. I will be posting a video and review in the coming month's once mapped, so I will email you the link once I upload it.
@@robertwisden7202 I suppose it might do. How long have you got left on the warranty? The relocation is easy to reverse though which could be done if a warranty claim were necessary
Nice machine. The wheels look good but don’t suit if you are trying to keep a retro look to the bike. Just my opinion & taste, not meant as a criticism.
They’re a very versatile bike for catering to personal taste. Such a great base point. I look at my Honda Pan-European…all I can do is put stickers on it!

“The boy done well!”
Thank you
Nice to see you posting again James!

Nice. Still waiting for my bike to be featured 😅

@internetpolification will do it tomorrow or next few days. Sorry to hear about the missing pix
Not sure about the ally wheels , think it looks better with spoked wheels , just my opinion , but it is a well looked after bike

Hi James, I tried to tag you in a video of my bikes first start since fitting the camshaft. Unsure if you saw it.
Not seen it!! Please send to jamesengland1000@gmail.com. My email address. Looking forward to seeing it!
@@internetpolification it won't email as it's too long apparently.

Just got my kit from James. Holding off until it gets warmer to start wrenching. Will relocating the RR void whats left of my warranty?
