I have modified the royal enfield GT to meet the vintage style of motorcycles.This custom build is brat style tracker motorcycle partially inspired by the Baak Motocyclettes for the seat and the handlebar design. Old school designs are now a motor trend and thus a custom handlebar design was used for comfort and styling. With this change I was able to eradicate most of the handlebar vibrations that I get on my royal enfield.
Parts used:
Handlebar: Wide flat handlebar, bratstyle, interceptor 650 alike
Grips: Bitwell thruxton chocolate flavoured rubber grips instead of anti vibration bar ends
Seating: Royal Enfield custom seat, Leather textured cross stitching, center pad like triumph bournville
Cushions: Soft cushions with fibre & rubber acting as anti vibration elements.
Cables: Brembo cables for front disk brakes & long cable for clutch | No ABS.

The showroom guys would always try to give better opinions about the motorcycle. I guess you will have to ride and also experience Royal enfield on a longer run. I came here after going on your interceptor video;I liked your videos. Good buddy.

@AbhilashPillai-lifeatabhi
@AbhilashPillai-lifeatabhi 6 лет назад
Its comfortable for long rides, GT has always been good for long rides. It is that you get more pressure on your wrists when it were the clipons. With this handlebar arrangement you are good to go down a hill with less to no pressure on your hands.

Is there any way to install ABS on this bike ?
@AbhilashPillai-lifeatabhi
@AbhilashPillai-lifeatabhi 6 лет назад
Yes, if the manufacturer decides to tweak ECU and do some mantra tantra.... Jokes set apart, no buddy do not do that. It aint effective as the mods will cost you heavy and wont be efficient.

disk brake cables. Rest all will be same cables adjusted properly. If you need the cables to be properly placed and tucked for a neat appearance; then you need to select brake, clutch cables from himalayan.

Hi Dev, If you meant handlebars then I have used custom handlebars that are bent towards the rider. If you know someone who builds handlebar, you can get this done.

@AbhilashPillai-lifeatabhi
@AbhilashPillai-lifeatabhi 6 лет назад
I used himalayan and they weren't good, you have to lean too much and being wider they arent stable for faster rides.
