Best thing about this video (And the earlier RE track video): it shows you don't have to have the biggest, baddest squid-missile to be able to go to a track and enjoy yourself. Bone stock SV650? Perfectly fine. Ninja 400? Perfectly fine. Something totally unsuited like an Interceptor 650? Sketchy, but still perfectly fine. In fact, I'd be willing to bet the Enfield got more second looks than most of the bikes there. Videos like this that show that an average rider on an average bike can do a track day and have fun, instead of taking risks on the public road. Plus, it's funny to watch Yammie haul the rather unwilling Enfield around the track.

Put and Yss kit in the fork, that made a big difference how the bike handles the stock springs are too weak if you want to push it and the stock oil is 2W I put 10W in mine with the upgraded springs. Swapped the rear shocks as well with a YSS set. You can get the GT rear set to put on that bike it's about 4 inches further back.

Swap the foot pegs for continental GT rear sets, DNA filter kit, free flowing exhaust like TEC Stinger, YSS suspension upgrade and maybe a sprocket change, it's a different machine.

Built for comfortable highway miles, doing anything else on them makes you look desperate to prove something lol

YES PLEASE YAMMIE NOOB. Mod away!!! Stage 1, tires, rear sets and front suspension and do please re-test on track! Many of us would LOVE to see what can be done on these RE's without blowing a big budget. Apparently the bones of the bike has been painstakingly developed by race bike engineers (one being Aussie legend Paul Young) and frame/geometry by Harris Performance so somewhere beneath the retro looks lies an inherently "sporty" bike, please find it and report back. 🙏

@chuckwagon-chuckywagon1500 Жыл бұрын

Have the 2022 650 Interceptor, instantly got rid of the tyres they gave me no confidence whatsoever, it comes with centre and side stands - got rid of centre stand. Changed exhaust and purchased high flow air filter along with booster plug, it runs cooler and faster with booster plug, I smile everytime I get on it. A wheel alignment solved the wobbling in the front wheel. I rode the Interceptor and the GT and found the GT having its handle bars set in a lower position put more body weight straight through my wrists, after 15min on the GT it was realy uncomfortable being 6ft 2inches tall and weigh about 115kg, I found I could ride the Interceptor all day no issues. I do like the racer look of the GT though, great video mate, please do another track one when you have moded it up. 👍🏻👍🏻

I love riding my Interceptor it is extremely comfortable, my best mate bought the GT and after I offered him a ride of mine he said "f#$k I wished I got the Interceptor" and he is 2 inches taller than me. It is an awsome fun bike with heaps of option's for customisation, hope this helped mate 👍🏻

It should be going faster with every lap since the pegs are getting more and more ground off. I think you just needed to keep going for awhile longer. Or take it back to the shop and just use a grinder everywhere you find scrapes. Watch out Josh, it's coming for you!

Remove the peg sliders, some progressive YSS springs in the forks with a heavier fork oil, upgrade the rear shocks and put in Brembo pads to give a better feeling on the brakes. Lob on a couple of better shoes than stock, Phantoms are good for the dry but found them awful in the damp. Certainly allows the GT650 Continental to go a lot better, so I'd imagine it would work for the Interceptor too. I could certainly go quicker on the GSXR, but I have a bigger grin on the GT650! ;) Makes you work for the rewards!!
