Interceptor 650 Gets Classic Exhausts! New Channel Bike

Описание: Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 | New Channel Bike | Exhaust Upgrade & Classic 650 Project Begins

Welcome back to Ride with T and welcome to the new channel bike — a 5-year-old Royal Enfield Interceptor 650. In this video, I explain why I chose the Interceptor 650, how it compares to my Royal Enfield Meteor 650, and why this bike is the perfect base for an upcoming Classic 650–style conversion.

After completing a 1,300 km motorcycle tour across Thailand, the mission was clear: get a custom stainless steel exhaust system fitted by a highly skilled Thai fabricator, KJ Petchabun. These handmade peashooter-style exhausts not only transform the sound of the 650 twin, but also drop serious weight — making the bike lighter, lower, and more engaging to ride.

I’m joined by my good friend John, who you may remember from earlier Ride with T videos, and the man responsible for introducing me to the RS Tech belt drive conversion. In this video we talk Royal Enfield history, why the Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650 changed everything for Royal Enfield, and how the proven 650 engine platform led to bikes like the Meteor 650, Shotgun 650, Classic 650, Bear 650, and more.

In this video you’ll see:
