one of the best looking RE 650 out there, looks rugged you've made the bike look all the more classic :). Love the tyres and front end. fellow Int 650 owner from India (lived in the UK for 21 years). Funny thing is we use to keep a 300ml plastic bottle filled with fuel in the toolbox on my 100cc bikes in case iof emergency as we did not enough money to have the bikes well fed during college days :) loved watching your video

They are looking awesome and I like the way they are attached to the bike. 😃 I have also one bag from raw and rugged but I like the closing mechanism of tripmachine more, it's just more convenient. Also, I've noticed you bottle holder. What are these? And lastly I do also like you seat 😅. Would you please share where you got it from? All in all you've got a really nice bike I have to say! Great content 😊

@ChrisKonings Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the kind words! The bottle holder is for spare fuel which I keep in Sigg bottles for an emergency. The seat is custom made by a guy in the UK called Holy Goat Customs. Thanks again, it’s been a journey working on it but I’m happy how it’s turned out ☺️

Wow Chris, what a video! This video is really inspiring honestly. How did you start figuring out what you wanted/needed when getting and modifying the INT650? I'm getting a license this year, and its a little overwhelming to figure out where to start 😅

Your bike reminds me of my RE from 1972. Looks great. Those switches look like ones that are on ebay, they look good but what about the indicator switch? Any chance of a link to the ones you got? Thanks from the Red Indian 650.

@swaitz 7 ай бұрын

Hi Chris, I got an interceptor too. Definitely your videos influenced a lot the choice because yours is very beautiful. And so is mine, luckily the previous owner made some very good choices. among the things I would like to change are the switches, the ones you have, I have seen them both on eBay and from a shop in the states. with a considerable difference in price. could you share your source?

@swaitz 9 ай бұрын

Hi, congratulations on your Interceptor! I'm looking for one too and would like to upgrade it a bit to tackle light off-roading. Did you also work on the suspension? If I may ask you how.

@ChrisKonings Жыл бұрын

It depends on what you are looking to achieve, they’re all really nice bikes - I’d say Interceptor is a good balance of the other choices. The w800 has some great personality in the engine and the Classic 350 has the retro look. But for me the Interceptor has introduced me to modern classic culture and is very easy to work on as well as modify

Awesome video man. How much of a difference do you notice riding with both of these filled up with regards to your stance and walking position? I'm a short dude and at times I need to have both feet kinda on my tip toes on my Conti. How much further would you say your foot to foot distance is while stopped?

@ChrisKonings Жыл бұрын

Thanks very much, good question, it doesn’t change the foot position too much but if you’re really on your toes I could see a little change to your stance, they’re flexible though so you can squeeze the bags in a bit
