Your presentation and comprehensive explanation skills are refreshing. Thanks for sharing the highs AND the lows and including the emotional impact both had on you. We all can connect with the vulnerable honesty you so naturally express. Well done.
Thanks, Charles! I appreciate the nice words. Such support helps me to keep going with this vlog.
I did this mod to my royal. I would say that if you are wanting to do this it means you have committed to changing the bike overall. Currently, my bike is running a tad rich so I am going to have to address this soon. However, my intent is to change the whole bike to look nothing like stock and never plan to go back. Something to keep in mind if you choose to do this. Also if you just remove the rear wheel everything does slip out the back. You did great.
Absolutely! No turning back!
Interesting and involved modification. Thank you for sharing with us. Good job.
Thank you very much!
This is brilliant dude. Would down watching this, was great to meet and ride today man.
Thanks, Jacob! It was great meeting you too and yeah that was a fantastic ride! I am still a bit shaking
Did anyone notice the new pin striping! Looks great! Great Video!!
Hahaha someone vandalised my bike with crayons 😂
Wild ride - figuratively and literally! Love it Max 😎
Thank you brother!
100% Feeling your anxiety and subsequent relief! I’m so glad it worked out in the end!!
Thank you! It wasn't an easy mod for me.
Use sandwich bags for your nuts and bolts, and label them with a marker. I made the same mistake on my VRod. What was supposed to be a day job took 2 days. Never again! Very nice bike. Royal and BSA are nice bikes.
Thanks, Steven! I have to remember this! Every time I make this amateur mistake and rely on my shitty memory :)
Nice looking mod, good job!
Thank you very much! Cheers!
Crank air filter must place upwards. Otherwise oil from engine will clog that filter soon. Great job 🔥
Good point! Need to improve that!
Thank you for sharing. Love the honesty in all your vids. Please remind me not to do this 😂
Any time!
Thanks for doing this. Now I know to never do this modification. Everyone has their own opinion but mine is that this is a lot of work and expense and headache to achieve something that to me looks no better than stock. Not saying it looks bad. It doesn't. But to me stock looks just as good.
You are welcome. The point of this video was to provide people with a few insights about this job. It is much more involved than it looks.
Great looking modification.
I have considered this one myself but think it may be a little beyond my patience level.
What did you decide to do with the tools and bag ?
Bike looks so good now Max 👌
Thanks! I know, I was hesitating for a long time and if I knew how difficult it would be, I would never do it. I haven’t found a solution unfortunately yet. I might just attach one back to the half panel on one side.
@@thesundayrides Seems like a reasonable choice.
Max, I love the flat tracker handlebars and I'm thinking of this mod for my interceptor. Did you have to drill the handlebars or did the stock switches fit without drilling? Cheers
Hi Sean! Flat tracker are absolutely fantastic for this bike. Mine are from Baak. Yes, I had to drill the holes, but that's not difficult. You will also need longer clutch and throttle cables.
Good job!
Is it possible to remove the air box and keep the original lateral tapes?
Hello! Thanks! Sorry, what do you mean - what are the lateral tapes?
Hi Max, I have a question about your tidy tail light in this video. I want to buy the tail light package from Bonvent. I like it has a cover to the frame but I don't like the way it mounts the brake light. There is a gap between the brake light and the cover. I think it makes the tail looks too long. When I saw your video, your tail light seems attached closely to the Bonvent cover. How did you do that? 😅
Would you share what brands you used on tail light, license plate holder, and the rear mudguard? Did you modify the Bonvent cover to fit it? Much appreciate ❤
BTW, the below channel is very informative. For the filter upside down mistake you made, it's mentioned at around 7 minute.

Hello! Yes, I am more than happy to share everything! If you are in London, let's meet and I will show you. If not - here is what I have - I have a bonvent light and number plate bracket and I have a sold out mud guard. that's it. I mounted it together with no modification. Find me on instagram and I will send you close up pictures
Thank you very much! Yes, that video is very helpful, but I still managed to make a mistake!!!
@@thesundayrides Thanks Max, unfortunately I am in Sydney. Will find you in IG. 😉
What are the main advantages of removing the airbox? Are there any disadvantages?
There are a bunch of very good videos made by true professionals. those who know their shit from personal experience. I am not one of them. I can't answer your question unfortunately. I made it only because I like how the bike looks with the pod filters, but like i said in the video - I did feel that the bike runs better than it was. may be it is a self motivation, but who cares?! it did the trick for me.
the disadvantages are: compromise on the water protection, can't fit the side bags, wiring is exposed.
How much weight saved?
Just a little, may be a killo.
Why mess with the airbox?? So you are an air flow genious.
Why did you watch it in the first place?
Just why
looks!
