Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 - Clutch Lever Install
A quick install video of the clutch lever on my Interceptor 650. It was a pretty easy job even for a beginner. It was my first time adjusting the clutch cable and that took some time to get used to but once I figured it out it was pretty simple. I apologize for some drops in audio quality, the GoPro wasn't picking up audio very well and it was pretty windy outside hitting against the garage door.

I had a nice ride yesterday morning and I stopped towards the end of the ride and thought I had the kickstand down but found out the hard way I didn't. I usually double check and look down to make sure it's down but for whatever reason yesterday I didn't.

Riding the Interceptor 650 through a winding road in eastern Iowa! It was a great day for a ride and traffic was at a minimum. This road is becoming one of my favorites to ride on! interceptor_moto Music: Stardrive by Jeremy Blake #royalenfield #interceptor650 #motorcycle

First Street Ride On My Interceptor 650!
I have same color, same seat, same fork gaiters same exhaust. Great bikes, I also have the front cafe racer cowl from Mk designs, mk designs matching color side panels, trip machine handle bar grips, and trip machine leather side tank pads, and nano glass screen protector for the clocks.
@@BlackChugga Awesome!! Have fun and stay safe out there ✌️
im curious about the frame ive looked at it and compared to honda rebels wielding on royal enfield looks kinda poor in my oppinion , any problems with the frame of the bike?
@@Berindei_Stefan Not yet but I keep it in the garage so it's not exposed to moisture. I'm not worried about the welds failing just because, I'll be worried if rust starts somewhere but all clear here!
@ great to hear anyway the bike looks amazing 🐿️
Great vlog and some really sensible points. I passed my bike test back in 1986 and messed around on bike for a while. I'm now 64 and have been away from bikes for over 10 years, but 8 weeks ago, I bought an RE Interceptor. My first couple of ride outs clearly showed my riding skills had diminished so as you said, scary moments 😅. Having been out regularly of late, the skills are slowly returning, and the rides are much more enjoyable. The Interceptor is proving to be a beautiful, well-balanced bike, and the smile on my face says it all. Ride safe and enjoy 😉
@@theoldhobbit3640 Glad to hear you're back at it! I've enjoyed my time with the bike and it sounds like you will too. Stay safe out there and happy riding!
Beautiful. I own one.
@@parvezahmed7963 What color?
@@interceptor_moto sunset strip
@@parvezahmed7963 Awesome!
Love the interceptor
Best bang for the buck out there.
@@JamesMiller-q9w Yep I've been loving it!! Do you have one or have you ridden one?
@@interceptor_moto Owned two English bikes in the day a 67 BSA Lighting and a 67 Triumph. Great handling Bikes. The Indian made Enfield is a close copy of these. Modern where it needs to be and you can't beat the price. You can call it a "beginners" bike but it will do the Twistee's and the Freeway what more you want?
@@JamesMiller-q9w that's great to hear, I love the way the old English bikes look! Baxter Cycle has a dealership in Iowa that specializes in classic British bikes and REs and I'm hoping to make it out there to see them. Their classic section is almost like a museum!
We have to ride with you sometime - October 6th is the Slimy Crud Run in Wisconsin. Let us know if you can join us.
Love this - and you know we love that road.
Great vid! As a new rider, did you feel that the interceptor was a little too much bike for you? As far as weight and power? I'm new and looking at the Royal Enfields and I want an Interceptor but wondering if one of the 350s would be smarter for my abilities (and my wallet).
@@CaptainCupLite My number one recommendation is take a beginner riding course if you haven't yet. I don't think it's too much power. My main concern was being able to ride highway speeds when I was ready to. I was worried about a 350 being able to consistently cruise at 65+ mph. Some people say they're capable and others have said that's the top end of the bike. I didn't want to outgrow the bike quickly. It's not built with the same sort of power you'd get from a 650 sports bike where a twist of the wrist sends you off to the races. As for price/budget we're getting close to a good time to buy a bike. I saw some good prices on RE bikes at the end of the riding season. Let me know if you have any other questions and I'll do my best to help.
I'm thinking of buying an INT eventually but am wondering how well you like yours. How does it do on the interstate? Can it handle doing 80 mph for an hour or two at a time or does the engine sound too stressed at that speed? Have you had trouble with the bike? Thanks.
@@jlrutube1312 I enjoy it a lot. I haven't had much interstate miles but I've done plenty of two lane highways and it'll cruise at 65-70 without issue. I haven't had any issues with it. I've read some people have needed to clean the relays but I haven't messed with them yet because it's working great! If you can, I'd give it a test ride or at least find one you can see in person to get a feel of the seat height and riding position.
@@interceptor_moto Thanks!
@@jlrutube1312 No problem, stay safe out there ✌️

Insightful, some useful information here. I am a brand new rider, just passed my MSF course and looking to buy an RE Int650 as my first bike. Cool to see someone else do the same thing!
@@thaspunone In the short time I've had it, it's been a fantastic bike!
I know exactly what you mean about your early concerns out in the towns and interstates. I've been riding off and on now for over 50 years and I still get the "jitters" in heavy traffic. It will get better, but you have to always keep an eye out for idiots, that's something you will always have to do. Just stick at it, it really does get better. It's just the same here in the UK !
I've noticed improvement since posting this video. I always assume when someone is approaching an intersection that they will blow through the stop sign or light.
Regarding removing the valve cover: First remove both horns, and then (with fuel tank removed) loosen the allen bolts that hold down the ABS junction box. Lift up the box and with some small pieces of wood wedge it so it remains lifted. Now you should have plenty of room to remove the valve cover. Take the small extra time to do these things and you can easily have the satisfaction of adjusting your own tappets and avoiding the dealership $hassle$. Actually, especially compared to the 1971 bikes I started out with, your Royal Enfield has a LOT of tech: ABS front and rear, EFI, electronic ignition, automatic overhead cam chain tensioner, O-ring sealed final drive chain. I could go on...
When I was doing the valves I did end up removing the left side horn, loosen the ABS etc. The difficulty removing the top cover is there seems to be a sweet spot that allows it to slide out. Finding that sweet spot was the difficulty. I suppose that is true compared to older bikes of the 70s!
@@interceptor_moto Remove both horns with horn brackets (allows moving cover forward a bit for removal). Also move the air injection hose out of the way. Remove all ABS module bolts and assure you lift the ABS unit as high as you can before wedging up with wood. I don't recall a problem when doing this. A friend and I had identical 1971 Honda CB450s. We took a road trip from Michigan to St. Louis to Houston to New Orleans and back to Michigan. Lots of 75-80 mph highway miles (easy 105+ mph). The bikes never skipped a beat and were more than up to the task. At that time 650-750cc were essentially the biggest displacement available and considered Superbikes! A 175cc was a beginner bike, not 650cc.
I have the same bike. Best mods i made are a set of BT46 tires and Powerage (short version) exhausts. Hug from Lisbon, Portugal
Nice! I think the first mod I'm making is upgrading the seat. Stay safe and happy riding!
Congrats on passing the MSF, grabbing an RE Int650 & slowly building skills. I'm not new, but had severe lung cancer so it's like starting all over again! I feel tentative riding still. We'll get there!!!
Thanks! Way to get back out there! Stay safe and happy riding!
Old biker here, with a little insight for the newer riders; When you can see your shadow ahead of you, it means that the setting sun is shining in the eyes of oncoming traffic. Assume NO ONE can see you when you they have the sun in their eyes. When you DO get out there on the highways, ALWAYS avoid cruising in other vehicle’s blind spots at all costs. Keep it slow, and enjoy the ride! 😎
All of this! Well said. New'ish rider here with a '72 Honda CL350! Enjoying her after just passing the safety inspection, registration and MSF course!
Thanks for the advice and good bit about the sun! Stay safe out there!
Excellent advice.. to which I would add. When riding down a mtn road from shadows to light towards the setting sun and the sun's wreaking havok with your face shield and sunglasses, don't assume the road is where you think it is should be. 😐
@@pujabelgian I think you may have been riding as long as I have? 😎
Old Bikers Rule! Thanks for the valuable tip. ✓
Good vid. Always good to see new people taking up the hobby, and even better to see such a sensible approach, ATGATT (All The Gear All The Time), riding on roads you know etc. My advice (for what it is worth) is to ride as often as possible 'cos 1) it improves your skills steadily rather than occasional rides which mean you get rusty (You did address this) and 2) It's FUN! Enjoy your bike and keep the shiny side up and the rubber down!
Thanks for taking time to watch and I appreciate the advice! How many years have you been riding?
@@interceptor_moto About 30 years on and off - all in the UK.
@@andytopley314 That's incredible! Happy riding and stay safe out there!
Good morning there buddy….. really appreciate your RUclips video. I’ve been watching as many RUclips videos on the interceptor as possible. I own a classic 350 and I am ready to bump up… 650 seems to be the next wise choice. Was out of the motorcycle game for quite a few years and got back into it with the classic. wondering how you like your MC would you recommend it!? Thanks for any input.
Good morning! I love it but I'm biased because it's the only bike I've had. I know you're not a beginner but I've found it to be a great beginner bike. It has enough power to ride on the highway but not so much to get you into trouble if you accidentally give it too much throttle. If you have the chance to sit on one or test ride one I'd recommend giving it a shot.
3:00 a roundabout in the US ? Nice riding! Enjoyed the history lesson.
Drivers here are still getting used to them! The older drivers really hate them
@@interceptor_moto Indeed they take a lot of getting used to. I grew up with them so it feels normal. At least you have nice new ones! Enjoy your riding.
SHOUT OUT!
Great short!
