      The wheels are the best upgrade IMO. Great job all around! Also the bates light looks great. Shame it couldn't be an LED version

      @@yahoodlums thank you very much! I agree, wheels suit this bike well. As it was build for 17 but then 18 was chosen for more classic appearance…
      I might get a brighter bulb or check if it can be replaced with an led one.

    The mods you’ve done all work well together. Nothing seems out of place. The one that interests me most is actually the wheels. I haven’t priced something like that’s in the US but I’m sure it’s comparable. Great job all around.

    • @thesundayrides
      @thesundayrides  4 месяца назад

      Thank you very much! If you decide to do the wheels, go wider on the rear rim than I did. I chose 3.75 for 150/70 tyre and I think I should have chosen 4.0 or even 4.25 and 150/60. This would look ‘cooler’

    Best upgrade is the 17inch wheels for sure! People should look to install 17 inchers before they upgrade anything else because they completely transform the way the bike handles.
    Second best has to be the exhaust.. great weight savings and enhanced sound.
    All other upgrades are a matter of taste, with plenty of options for everyone to find exactly what they're looking for.
    Great video as always Max! (and thanks for sneakily mentioning me at 11:56 lol) We should do another video soon 💯

      Hey Stan! Thanks for your kind words! It was a pleasure to work together on a video and we absolutely need to find an idea for a new one!
      Absolutely agree with 17 wheels. No surprise that all sporty bikes are on 17inches. Sadly it is an expensive mod.
      Also agree on the exhaust.

    Very nice informative video! Love the way your interceptor has evolved.
    Was very nicely surprised at the cost of the side bags! They look great as well.
    The indicators blend away into the bike so nicely! Very slick.
    I was admiring the rear mudguard and how minimal it looks. Gives the bike a nice side view as it doesn't jump out to much and gives the rear a 'higher' look 😀.
    I bet your wife is very happy that you got given this all for free 😉😅

    I can't believe the prices for some of these parts.. particularly BAAK.. £250 for handle bars.. they look superb of course, but I think motorcyclists are definitely ripped off by these kind of companies! Having said that, your bike looks great, love the channel and all your videos, keep them coming 😀 What about a paint job next? I'm currently modifying my own interceptor. Are you shortening your rear sub frame for that more compact look? Cheers Stewart 👌👍

    • @thesundayrides
      @thesundayrides  4 месяца назад

      Hi Steward! Yes, unfortunately that’s the price you pay. And that’s Royal Enfield, if I had a bmw r9 t…forget it!! Baak is a bit crazy with their prices. I guess that’s their expenses plus their marketing. They don’t want to target affordable market, they are entry level premium. Which is cool, the quality is decent. But I wasn’t even considering their exhaust, seat, and other stuff. For the £250 you get the cable kit as well. It is overpriced too, but you win time as you don’t need to source it all separately, measure the length, etc.
      Thanks for the compliment about the bike!
      Yeah, they new paint job is a logical next step. That’s £800 alone. So I will wait a bit. Or probably just start a crowdfunding campaign:)
      I was thinking long about cutting the frame. I think I should do it. I was thinking about the resale value after this mod, but man.. the resale value even of a new and unmodified interceptor is ridiculous now… so why not!
      Good luck with your bike mods! Let me know if I can help somehow!

    Hey about the ebc i hope you know this. The pads will only be as good as the tyres and road surface you are on.
    If you have good tyres and good roads and the ebc hh is not good enough. I have a solution try ebc EPFA pads but your need to know that they are track level pads so a bit of heat is required . I have been using them for 12 years and i have saved my self from a lot of near crashes. You need to clean your discs and do the bedding procedure.
    And did the 17"rims reduce speed wobble issues.

      I made a mistake after installing the sintered pads - I didn't clean the discs. However, I got used to the brakes now and they are fine for me. When the pads wear I will follow you advice and check for the difference!
      Thank you! Ride safe!
