When did 'popping and banging on the overrun' suddenly equate to 'sounding good'?… When I was younger, it was the sign of a tosser who'd put less restrictive pipes on his bike, but wasn't capable of dialling in the mixture to get rid of the annoying popping and banging (usually all it needed was a slight richening of the pilot mixture). Most would put bigger main jets in (because they'd been told to… and bigger is better, right?), so they didn't burn valves and/or pistons on the open road, but twiddling with the mixture screws was beyond them.

Hi there, thanks for this. Glad you like it. I've popped a mention into the paper for you this week in my long-term update. It'll go online in a few weeks, and I'll drop a back link in there too when it does. Cheers!
Several tests of air filters on RUclips conclude that the K&N and DNA type of "free flow" filters have a significant trade-off - they filter out much less dirt from the air than standard throw-away filters.
Dirtbikes have a fuking sponge as an air filter and they have the worst dirt of all types of bikes, the filtering in performance filters relies on the liquid you use on the filter...
@@inakigoenaga9811 Foam filters, I've found, seem to work better even on the street, than gauze type filters. Over many years I've come to not trust them at all, especially in dusty environments. Stock cellulose paper filters, and now the more popular fuzzy materials, work very well and with little restriction, and are still best in my opinion unless you're dealing with track use where every bit matters.
Sriram Shandilya just enjoy the bike and stop trying to make it into something big it isn’t! I reckon he there won’t be much metal left in the barrel after boring to 865cc!! Plus the valves would likely be too small then , unless you changed the head to match....then the EFI might need to be reflashed.....the list goes on - just buy a bigger bike 😁
Hi Mate, as per the installation document for S&S pipes it says ( Requires Royal Enfield service part number 576065/C (qty 2). In the video I was looking for the same. Is it already there with stock ones or need to be procured. As of I have checked but it's not available. Looking forward for your valuable response. Thanks.
After making any changes to intake or exhaust, it's a good idea to start the engine from cold and let it idle for ten minutes WITHOUT touching the throttle. The ECU will learn the new flow characteristics (back pressure, intake draw etc.) at closed throttle to give it a base line to work from. Then ride it reasonably gently for a couple of miles for it to adjust at other throttle openings. After that it'll make any minor adjustments needed as it goes, to allow for different temperatures air densities etc. which are changing slightly all the time. The ECU can adjust itself across the range in use without the 10 min idle, but it's better to let it set the closed throttle baseline first, as it avoids any risk of lean running initially.
They're not that loud, honestly. They have removable baffles, but I'm keeping them in. They've been designed to pass EU noise regs. They just sound better, rather than much louder.
u should let it idle first no revs for 10 minutes for ecu to remap itself not just go for a ride also the improved fuel plug from hitchcocks in uk is good to.
There is a HUGE thread on this on the "Unofficial 650 Interceptor" discussion board at forum.classicmotorworks.com/index.php?board=30.0. As you might imagine, there are very strong opinions on both sides as to whether the ECU learns or does not learn.
@@mwmosser - I couldn't find that thread, but no matter, I wouldn't expect the people posting there to really know for certain. But just philosophically, if you were designing an ECU, would you include in it the resources necessary for it to change its own parameters on the fly? Would any country's auto exhaust regulation agency approve such an ECU whose parameters' values changed without human intervention?
@@daveinwla6360 - It's precisely because exhaust regulations are getting tighter that ECUs need to have a learning capability now. The stock legally mandated mixtures are so lean these days (compared to the ideal stoichiometric ratio) that there's no wriggle room for even the natural variations in air density between a cold winter day at sea level and a hot day at altitude in a desert region. It's why everything is 'engine managed' electronically now (though a bonus is better fuel economy). In the days of carbs, or less stringent emissions regs, the mixture could be set rich enough for the dense air, without breaking the rules when air is hot and thin, with most variations being taken care of by a CV carb's vacuum controlled throttle slide. Now all conditions are nailed down to leanest mixture possible for the engine to run without damage. It's why 'Booster Plugs' help 'riderbility', by fooling the ECU that the ambient temperature is slightly cooler than it actually is at certain throttle openings/RPM, allowing it to feed a slightly richer mixture ( a bit like the accelerator pumps fitted to many performance cabs did in the old days). A classic example (although admittedly at extremes) is the difference between two of my own bikes. My injected RE Interceptor 650 returned over twice the MPG on the same varied riding in the mountains of SW France, as my stock slide carbed ’69 T350 Suzuki was giving the year before. (this was with the same riding companions too).
The ECU will never have that range to compensate. Letting that extra air and exhaust flow makes it too lean. The bike ecu cannot adjust for it. The RA is the leanest bike I have ever measured stock. Almost completely across the fuel range. You are better off using the stock filter with the new filter clamps. Ideal would be a tuner, but booster plug does what it says. In rare cases over fueling a tad.
About buying aftermarket parts; what does "widen the net" have to do with anything? And "the stock filter is installed in the bike"? Jeez, we know! Why don't you work out what you're going to say first before you start filming so that you can avoid saying hundreds of dumb and inappropriate words. And maybe pick a day when you're not having an asthma attack. I felt ill just listening. Btw, that 'plate' is not a 'restrictor' plate. It DIRECTS the air flow and is simply part of the airbox. These 'how to' vids should really be done by people who know what their doing, especially since you're trying to sell junk for one of your advertisers. AND OMG! Popping and banging on the overrun!! IT'S RUNNING TOO LEAN ON A CLOSED THROTTLE. And you think that's a good thing? If it were your own bike and you had to replace the burnt out exhaust valves or the actual silencer because the baffles have been popped to pieces, maybe you wouldn't be so happy.
They come in two variants. One variant comes with s&s branding is road legal, while the other set has s&s branding and "race only" engraved. Those pipes are not road legal.
Nothing about motorcycles are supposed to be reasonable. He who pays and all that. No performance or torque improvements cited. Yet it does shave 6kg of the sprung weight. That gives the rear suspension an advantage, 6kg less on tire wear, 6kg increase in overall luggage carrying capacity. Just saying ….. 👍✌️
Have to agree, I'm not a fan of noisy pipes, I just think they're rude, selfish and childish. The stock pipes sound great to me without being in other folks face. Weight saving might be a plus for replacement pipes but they'd have to be affordable and quiet before I would consider them.
No extra horsepower but more annoyance for your neighbours. Not to mention carburetion compromised and all the problems that will slowly - or quickly - occur, like burned valves and blue downpipes. So money well spent. Except that the junk parts were free from US manufacturers trying to flog their junk to bike owners over here. MCN used to be a great paper written by genuine enthusiasts. I hope this vid isn't representative of new standards. At least Gareth has the decency to look a bit embarrassed throughout.
That's how the Interceptor should have sounded like, love it!
The exhausts which costs about 25% of the bike price, this is surely a chore for RE to make it standard across their 650 models .

I believe the air box "restrictor plate" is to reduce intake noise getting out and water spray and sand & pebbles getting in.
...as well as limiting mice nesting inside the filter element.
Excess water spray ingested can turn any dirt to mud, then it sets hard.

I have same air cleaner but my pipes are AEW 102'S. JUST AS GOOD AS THE S&S pipes.
Tell me you don't understand biking without telling me. If I wanted something fast I'd buy a gixxer
Have to agree, I'm not a fan of noisy pipes, I just think they're rude, selfish and childish. The stock pipes sound great to me without being in other folks face. Weight saving might be a plus for replacement pipes but they'd have to be affordable and quiet before I would consider them.
The S&S is too costly
No extra horsepower but more annoyance for your neighbours. Not to mention carburetion compromised and all the problems that will slowly - or quickly - occur, like burned valves and blue downpipes. So money well spent. Except that the junk parts were free from US manufacturers trying to flog their junk to bike owners over here. MCN used to be a great paper written by genuine enthusiasts. I hope this vid isn't representative of new standards. At least Gareth has the decency to look a bit embarrassed throughout.
This bike is Fi mate
Put some v power in it too
Too bad. Putting aftermarket parts is illegal here in India ☹
of course we believe you... 😉😉🤣
@@felixferndown9148 😂😭
Now you’ve sorted the pipes, spend a bit of cash on some new armoured jeans. Those look awful!
Gawd, who wants a bike that “popping and banging on the overrun”? No thanks.
Just stop looking at the thing you dropped and pick it up 😂😂😂
Doesn't match ...looks wrong ..fit scorpion slip ons
You on the wrong side the road 😅
Or you are
You're 1/2 way there. Still quiet.
Use headphones. It's really good
Just once I want to see a review without the phrase "without further adieu ".
Or even “without further ado”
Smil&S per mile
deffo still need a diet ;-)
fantastic video by the way
Throttle response on 42hp engine. It's like the kids that upgrade 125cc motorcycles
You must not have too many 2-wheeled miles under your belt. Better response is ALWAYS welcome.
It's actually 47hp
Why aren't you wearing a open face helmet.. fairy
