I'm stunned, what a transformation!!! Enfield, you need to be getting in touch with this chap, he's designing your next model and you need him on board
It looks great, that engine looks so muscular and aggressive now that it's exposed and it stands out against all the black. I love that tank but I'm starting to think that the best look would be all black with the brushed and polished metals highlighted against the black background .
I don't agree, I really like what's been done but personally would have left the silencers down low on the bike where they cover the engine. Rest of the bike looks fantastic, really like the front and rear end detail. I get that tec are going for a scrambler look but I just reckon some nice cone silencers suit this particular bike better.
DON'T YOU GO MESSIN' WITH THAT RED! I just bought this same bike in southern California. First one sold in the central valley. I'm thinking stock is just fine. I'm watching your videos on this, and I think I see a couple of places you might make a bit of money off of me. That bike is looking amazing! That red and black tank (same as mine) is a focal point for the bike from stock to this beast you've created. It looks fantastic! Great series of videos. Thanks for sharing them and cheers, from across the pond, and the fruited plains.
Once you're happy with it you should consider making this into a conversion kit, it looks quite nicer than the Street Scrambler. Great vids look forward to seeing Part 5.
Hi We are already looking at making some of these parts as kits and you can do it all together in one go or just fit selected parts of the conversion. some items already on our web store with more arriving every week see www.tecbikeparts.com
This is coming out to be the best modded Interceptor. Congratulations for the build. Great work. You're right, I too believe that this would have sold more that GT 650 if Royal Enfield would ever release this. You guys are the best. 👍👍👍👍👍
Looks great from all angles, better than the Triumph Scrambler. Beautifully compact, engine and casings look period correct. No "eyesore" radiator to spoil the profile. I bet it's much lighter and handles better too! Instead of the small sump guard currently on the bike you could fabricate a larger underbelly bash plate that wraps around the frame rails and covers the cases???
@@georgemilburn6213 And me, it's got that classic old school look, hope you provide a full list of parts used when finished - like the seat that matches your rack unless you are going to supply yourselves as part of a set of kits.
@@everydayphotography Hi paul If we get the interest we will be making the seat/rack combo as a kit with correct fittings to use standard seat lock Price around £200 for the full kit
Re tank - Ravishing Red is agruably the best of the Interceptor's colour-ways and it would be a pity to cover it up. How about leaving it as it is, but with black added to the bottom seam as demonstrated in an earlier video?
This Royal Enfield is a home run. The fact that they are so reasonably priced opens the door to customization. The stock bike is such a good overall platform but now the horizons are opening up. Imagine ... a bike YOU can work on and modify without needing a master mechanic degree - this opens up motorcycling to the masses not the few rich. High tech bikes are race bikes but as they age they become expensive to fix and thus disposable. You won't throw away this Royal Enfield - you will rebuild it.
The stock tank color looks the best and is actually the main highlight apart from the huge engine and the exhaust. If you really want to go far the colors you can vinyl wrap it, thus keeping your ideology of going back to stock anytime. Remove the mods, remove the wrap and you're back to 100% stock.
Wow that look amazing. After seeing this now i am considering buying a RE 650.I think the chrome tank would look great with this configuration. Cant wait for part 5
WOW, this is exactly what I had in mind, fantastic. Perfect little scrambler look, awesome. Love the headers, and love that rack on the back. You have an eye for motorbike style and design
This looks incredible. I took an Interceptor out for a test ride the other day, and loved every minute of it. First promo pic I saw of it, I just said to myself "this would look badass with some Scramblification!" and you have nailed the aesthetic I envisioned. Great work!
Holy sh*t! The bike has really been transformed from the original lump. It truly looks the bidneth as they say. The RE is a diamond in the rough: fundamentally excellent, but hobbled visually with a strange brew of various schlocky parts. I've long admired your talent for digging deep to find the right solutions, but this one imo has been your best job yet. Looking forward to more videos. Cheers from the Great White North!
I liked the bike from first sight. But now...I love it! This is by far the best looking scrambler/streetcracker I've ever seen. I just don't want one, i need one! And don't touch that tank! I love that colour! :-) DNA is probably the best airfilter system on the market. Will be interesting to see the difference!
I recently ridden interseptor 650 and yes it is gret machine and I seriously looking to have one and definitely want put that exhaust on it because this best looking and minimalistic design.
That is absolutely fabulous! That's just how I'd have it. The engine looks fat! Lovely'..I think the silencer you currently have looks the part too. As a Triumph man I'd have this over the street scrambler even with the decrease in power and cc. Keep the colour. love it.. Spot on.👍
That looks really sweet. It certainly improves the look of the bike, though i think the silencer could be about 3" longer. Also, i`d like to see a seat that comes down at the side a bit, and almost hides the frame. Apart from that, it looks pretty much there as is. Well done boys.
Love the look it’s taking. I’ve always liked the Triumph but now I much prefer the RE, such a gorgeous bike. Keep up the good work, gotta do a sound test soon 😂 Congratulations for the hard work!
am a little bit disappointed you didnt start it up. but the frame really does suit what you have done to it. think that would have also made a awesome street tracker as well.
Hi I looked long and hard at a tracker back end and decided it would really have to have a frame Loopectamy to be correct with a tracker look rear. We may do it later or on another bike as we only wanted to do reversible mods on this build.
Looking canny now, high rise front mudguard and braced bars and that would do for me, ya ever need a volunteer to help out am just up the road, love to learn and handy with a spanner!
George i have gone and done it mate ,I've just bought myself a royal enfield !!!!! She is the same as yours (ravishing red ), just waiting for delivery (2 to 3 weeks !!!!) .......right were did i leave my check book ........will be in contact soon for the tracker parts See you soon
rishabh pathak this is exactly I was looking for how to make 650 rear that scrambler look....this guy without changing anything especially the warranty made it look amazing
hello, reviewing the videos, part 1, 2, 3 .... and the 4th. It seems to me that the Interceptor has a unique character and presence. I quite liked the size, the length of the seat, giving space to the grill. I hope to leave mine something similar. Greetings from Santiago, Chile.
Personally not a fan of the Scrambler high level exhaust, but the headlight and brackets, seat, rack, rear light are a massive improvement. Looks a real classy bike.
Fair play that looks beautiful!I like the tank colours but think the ally mudguards would look cool.The Interceptor looks more tempting every time I see it.
I grew up with scramblers in the 70's and what you've done to the Interceptor looks amazing I live in Germany and doing any mods here is quite difficult, are you intending on selling the seat and rack, I would like the rear light and indicators as well but they must have E-Numbers on them to pass an MOT ( TUV ) again I like the fact that everything is reversible
That's looking great! I love scramblers so these mods are right up my alley. I've been looking to buy a Triumph scrambler but after seeing what you've done to this, I'm not so sure now.
Absolutely Fantastic work Fella. Love it. You should Work for Enfield. I really love the look of these bikes. I am thinking of buying a Himalayan 411cc. Good reviews But The 650cc Engine. Wow what a bike. I ride BSA singles. Need a modern-day bike with a bit of class. Self builds like yours, are so very inspirational. Good work.
I NEED THIS MOTORCYCLE!!! it is what i was looking and hoping ROYAL ENFIELD would make..you hit this build perfectly..i would buy this now..my only concern I'm not to keen on the gas tank colour..id prefer a MATT black or gloss black with silver accent?...you did a AWSOME job..
I like the look of everything that you have done. The front fender is all I could see that needs changed, but you said that is probably the next thing. Like others have said, I definitely would no change the color. I first saw this color combination used like this on the early 90`s Guzzi, I`ve forgotten the model. I really liked it then and haven`t changed since. It`s beautiful. It makes the Triumph look boring!
Could you please tell us how much weight you've saved compared to the original,it's a great looking bike. I think it's the best looking 'Street Scrambler' out there.
What a great transformation bud I think RE should be getting in touch with you to sort one out for them. I’ve just ordered the orange one. Lots to think about. Cheers George. Tony
This starts to look better, and better. I love the fact, that all changes are reversible.
I'm stunned, what a transformation!!! Enfield, you need to be getting in touch with this chap, he's designing your next model and you need him on board
That bike looks way better than the triumph on any Sunday.......
Or any other day of the week for that matter.
true

What news? It's been a while since this came out and I'm holding off my Interceptor buy till I know I can get your gorgeous high level pipes.
It looks great, but i would'nt change the color i love the raveshing red
Love it! If royal enfield made a scrambler like this bike i'd buy it for sure!!
especially if the cost stays reasonable ! I'd like to see someone test his finished product.
i was looking at the continental GT but your videos sold me on the interceptor, hands down your bar choice and mods have got me sold.

This will be my retirement gift to myself! A classic looking scrambler to wander the back roads of Iowa on.
Just bought one as a 60 th bday gift 👍
Wow! I thought the Triumph Scrambler didn't look too shabby, but yours is way better. Well done! Come on RE, make one for us.
You've done a fantastic job there. The best looking street scrambler now, and the technical tweaks sound great.
I actually prefer the look of the RE when parked next to the triumph. Looks great 👍
Yes me too, I put them next to each other to see what comments I got

george milburn anything in the pipeline fora replacement seat without the rack?

in next instalment as we have made a few small changes to the baffle system.

Im worried about the exhaust burning the legs😁
I've got a tec 2-1 flat tracker exhaust baffles out on my 865 Bonnie sounds brlliant
What saddle is that. where did you get it? And will you be selling the racks? looks the part 👍
@@TECBikeParts is the next instalment due soon guys? Would really love to find out how the high exhaust has progressed!
I really, really like that seat and rear rack combo! Once I get my Interceptor I'd love to get that sort of set up on it.

Jeez. That RE looks so badass as a scramber!
Such a great looking build - well done! I think the red looks good as it is, but gold rear shocks would be bling. Need to hear that exhaust!
Looks so much better with the shorter seat, great looking bike.
That looks really sweet. It certainly improves the look of the bike, though i think the silencer could be about 3" longer. Also, i`d like to see a seat that comes down at the side a bit, and almost hides the frame. Apart from that, it looks pretty much there as is. Well done boys.
Thanks sir to give attention to this bike....Hope the RE is seeing this and will make their upcoming models more attractive
Good looking Scrambler! Perhaps RE should of talked to you guys about the design! If they made this one I would buy one, love it!!
It’s exactly how I would spec it! Just amazing
Looks great and looks factory , love it man , also like the fact that it can be changed back to original
Love the look it’s taking. I’ve always liked the Triumph but now I much prefer the RE, such a gorgeous bike. Keep up the good work, gotta do a sound test soon 😂 Congratulations for the hard work!

mind blowing transformation.... looking forward for more updates! thanks mate.
I really like the look you have achieved on this!
Great job goodser! Personally i liked the look at the end of part 3.
THAT EXHAUST IS AWESOME!
George i have gone and done it mate ,I've just bought myself a royal enfield !!!!!
She is the same as yours (ravishing red ), just waiting for delivery (2 to 3 weeks !!!!)
.......right were did i leave my check book ........will be in contact soon for the tracker parts

brilliant man, you used the ugly looking rear end of frame to rest a carrier. Simply amazing.

One of the best lookin INT650,very tastefully moded..put some fork gators as well gonna look even more dope..

I really like the direction you’re talking. Awesome bike.
You’ve done an awesome job with the look of this bike! Beautiful!
I put a set AEW silencers that I removed the packing from on my Interceptor. It sounds awesome! A deep, throaty roar ! And a good 10lbs lighter too!
Im enjoying everything you've done with your bike. Can you provide links for the luggage brackets, light indicators and seat?
The best customization of interceptor ever
Great job and looks more sportier than the original interceptor

What a great looking machine! Like you, I'm a little surprised that Enfield didn't do something like this themselves.
Dealerships are *just* getting the Interceptor and GT models now. Give 'em time.
Man that's how stock RE should be! U have done such a great work bro👌👌
This looks better than the triumph,,love it
Looks tough as now.. I like the red/black now more than before. It suits it very well.. Would look dope all black too, but I would leave as is.
Looking really good - the Triumph looks a bit of a lump in comparison
love the bike. you chaps definitely have the eye and knowledge!
Could you please tell us how much weight you've saved compared to the original,it's a great looking bike.
I think it's the best looking 'Street Scrambler' out there.
Exhaust change alone should save about 5kg
The bike now weighs 192KG with full tank of fuel
That's a Great Looking Scrambler Styling
Bloody amazing - wye-aye-man.... I will now definitley buy an interceptor and mod it per your ideas!
I don't know if I'd necessarily buy one instead over a GT 650, but I definitely want one of these as well!
I think the Union Jack black triumph tank guards would look good on the 650. I’m told the shape goes well with the tank
Amazing redesign. Keep up the awesome work.
I want one of these bikes and that exhaust so much.
Awesome build....cant wait to see the finished bike...this will sell...i will be buying... very well done...love it
RE should just send their bikes to you to finish the manufacturing process! Looks great.
