Going For a Pint on the Royal Enfield Interceptor. The Perfect Bike For a Sunday Ride?

Today I take the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 for a Sunday ride in the beautiful Rutland British countryside. I visit Launde Abbey, A stunning location to ride to and take in the scenery. I then head to the Blue Ball, a British Country Pub located in the village of Braunston in Rutland. A truly beautiful and quintessential pub, serving delicious food and great drinks.
I also discuss some new points about the Royal Enfield including the handling, the engine, the braking, and the longevity and quality of some of the parts used on the bike.
If you have made money, and as a result, have some disposable income, you may look at buying a motorcycle to invest your money in, and if you choose wisely, you may find the right bike that becomes a future classic, and actually, over time, appreciates in value. As we are entering a new era, with electric vehicles becoming more and more prevalent, the choice motorbikes of today, could be the valuable classics of tomorow. You could of course invest in gold, silver, stocks and shares or bonds, but a motorcycle is much more fun!!! This is not financial advice but merely our opinion. Choose wisely!

Just did the same ride as this after watching this video yesterday. The food in the blue ball pub was brilliant. The roads were perfect for a motorbike . Thanks for the inspiring vlogging 😃👍 extremely good review of the 650 interceptor too 👍

@MrDarcy-OlMan Год назад

Glad you enjoyed!

@bmwgsblackgus7636 Год назад

Really did enjoy the day. The guy in the pub remembered you going , and was chuffed that it gave us the place to visit.

@flatcapcaferacer Год назад

I expect most motorcycles subjected to winter roads and little tender loving care would show some corsion. I've exposed my 2016 Thruxton R to seven winter rides and the Bonneville Salt Flats several times but the finish is almost new but I've seen other Thruxton Rs have corsion issues. I clean my bikes after a ride and keep them polished that is it. Keep up the good work.

@Argo-F-Ur-Sef Год назад

One of your best videos! I love the change of scenery and the pub. This format is great! I have an Int650 as well. I put on Enfield precision pipes that go horizontal so I can get bigger saddle bags on. I got them from Hitchcock in the UK and they sound great as well. Cheers!

@rockyescape8989 Год назад

these standard retro bikes are just perfect daily commuters imo. i'd buy them over and over again because of just how amazingly practical they are. always recommended to have one at least to partner a sportsbike/touring.

@bartlx Год назад

I got my Interceptor 650 beginning of March this year on a rainy day and the absolute first thing I noticed when I drove her inside the underground parking lot here is that the dials fogged up pretty bad, so, yeah, that's normal :) Last week I saw the new 2023 'Black Ray' version of the Interceptor and I spotted the housing of the dials is different. Wonder if they improved on that matter. Never seen any review mentioning this update.

@greatkingrat Год назад

Ok….I have watched 3 seconds and already I can tell I am going to enjoy this video. This is because at the end of every ride we get a pint which is great, I have an interceptor 650 that I love and this channel is fantastic.

Great video, mate. I love my mark 2 Interceptor 650, definitely a keeper. By the way, mine has 4000kms and not a single point of corrosion or rust. My friend has a Continental GT with around 15000kms and same thing, no rust or corrosion. Maybe this one got a little mistreated or something, lol. Keep the videos coming and have a great week! Cheers from Brazil!

@manuelhaug4053 Год назад

The misting up of the dials on a cold day is a common problem on the Interceptor. I have stainless steel exhausts on mine so rust is no issue . The engine case has to be polished frequently to keep it nice on mine too.

@michaelabernathy7013 Год назад

Hello Darcy, perfect type of ride for an Interceptor. I've tried 4 different polishes on the engine cases/valve cover on my '20 INT. Best is Maguires 'Motorcycle All Metal Polish'. May be called NXT in the UK. An oil spray protectant for over wintering works well. I'm using a German product, S100. It cleans up easily with mineral spirits come Spring. Nice thing about the Maguires product is it leaves a protective coating. I polish the cases twice a year. Instrument fogging is an issue. I had an issue after the 2nd winter, '21/'22. Haven't had the issue since. It's reported on the forums that there is a yellow-colored circle of thin plastic covering a small hole on the back of each clock that when removed inhibits misting. Take care!

@angelnokare6906 26 дней назад

man I'd love the few years older orange tank but with blacked-out metals and allow wheels. That'd be sick. At least they could give alloys as an option for every colour scheme...

@Lynt144 Год назад

My interceptor clocks don't seem up anymore. You have to take off two small round yellow stickers off the underside of the dials 😎🏍

@chrisdagnall8666 Год назад

Great video this is the sort of riding I really enjoy, country lanes in England and Wales (I would do Scotland but I don’t live near 😉), getting a brew or a pint, then some more riding. I ride my Interceptor all year round and I have given up trying to keep the casings shiny, now the weather is getting better I will give it a polish but in the winter I don’t bother as its a loosing battle. My clocks steamed up in the first week I had the bike.

@basedury Год назад

i’ve had mine for a month as of today, it’s amazing! i’d recommend this as a first street bike for anyone who doesn’t want a super sport or some sort of plastic insect looking thing.

@ianhughesroyalenfield Год назад

Nice to see you back on the Interceptor again. Having owned mine since May 2020, I can say that it is not a bike to be used and abused. You do need to keep on top of the polishing on alloy parts, to prevent furring. Also, the clocks do mist up at the lower edge, but no big deal as you don’t constantly look at the fuel gauge and trip meter anyway. I have a pair of Scorpions on mine, and even with the baffles in (my preferred option), they sound fantastic. I have also done many of the mods others have, regarding letting the bike breathe and handling, and it is so much better for it. The Interceptor is still a fantastic bike, if, like me, you are not impressed by gadgets, gizmos and electronic sorcery. It’s pretty much as basic as is permitted nowadays, but that’s it’s appeal, well to me anyway. There have been some issues with cutting out, which seems to have been down to over greasing of relays, but thankfully, I have never had any problems with mine. Nice return ride, oh and I only drink cider and rum nowadays, since “Ronald’s” staff tried to kill me with a dodgy burger. Thanks for sharing.

Fantastic clip ,thanks for sharing . I had the continental mr clean gt650 and as another viewer mentioned you have to keep up on the cleaning of the chrome ,The rear shocks at the top pitted first and each side of the engine casings ,I also had a 2 year old triumph t120 and I must say the Enfield put a bigger smile on my face . I now have an 1981 Suzuki Gs850g which is my favourite.The metal is far superior and the build compared to all modern retro’s and it’s the real deal ... Oh and it’s mot and tax exempt 😊 Regards Dave from Scotland

@anotherpointlessvideo3654 Год назад

My 2022 Himalayan dial mists up too. I treat it now as an indicator of how chilly the weather is but it goes away once the weather warms up. And my bike does seem to start corroding (patina?) in some areas and my fork rubber skirt lifts up by itself (i call that character). REs do seem to have its own charm❤ for the price....😆

@billy.g3597 Год назад

Having lived in Rutland for number of years, my favourite piece of road lay between Langham and Cold Overton. Most memorable curve is a blind summit bend that drops into a ravine, like the corkscrew, Leguna Seca. Going the opposite direction it resembles Eau rouge/ Raidillon, Spa. It's a hidden gem (not shown on maps). Enjoy.

@thebingleywheeler Год назад

Yes they all pretty much have steamy clocks as they're not really made with our climate in mind. The engine cases come up a treat with a good metal polish like Maguires etc... I have the chrome interceptor and the green classic 350 so I know all about polishing! 🤣

@MaxUtley Год назад

I really enjoyed the video - thank you -especially that you actually went to a country pub on a bike which is one of life’s pleasures. Especially with such a classic looking bike that reminds me of the old school bikes and a Matchless 350 that I learned to ride on when I was 12. I am of a generation that often went to the pub on my bikes - memorably as a late teenager on my Suzuki X7 that went out in every weather in the late 70s in rural Staffordshire when it was perfectly acceptable to have a few jars. Whilst the crisp night air often refreshed us after we were turfed out of the local at closing hours, I have overdone it and woken up in a field …. but not ashamed as it was an early and important lesson and many decades later I stick to my 1 pint limit if it’s a short ride and zero if I have some miles ahead which one of reasons I am still on two wheels nearly every day.

I have this exact model 2020. Absolutely love it. No rust/corrosion issues in Australia. No complaints, bloody great!

@evanheisler7899 Год назад

Nice video. Living in Australia with it's mostly dry climate the fogging clock is not an issue. My Interceptor is 3 years old and it has never suffered from the fogging problem. Similarly regarding the early rust - here in Oz because of our climate and the fact that we don't need to put salt on the roads most bikes don't rust. The Interceptor is a grand bike - I love it.

@Ciganyfiu Год назад

Interesting, I’m in NSW just bought a 2021 Interceptor with only 1500km on the clock. Immaculate condition, no rust, but the fogging of the speedometer and revs did occur on most rides so far. Also noticed a slight wobble up and down front end hopping around 80 km/h. Anyone had the same experience? Mine has the Pirelli Phantom tyres.

@alekmarin7840 Год назад

Nice one ,I often stop off for one pint only when I'm riding before or after work well done ...can't beat spoons though 👍🤝😉😃

@greentrumpet Год назад

Steamy clocks. They all do that sir! The cases are bare alloy, they need wiping off after every ride on wet roads, ACF 50 or similar if salt is about. Mine is 3.5 years old, no real corrosion trouble but they are a lot like 60s machines with the bare metal. Great bikes and great fun.

@cliveomahoney4096 Год назад

I have covered all of my bikes in ACF50 every autumn and I've had almost no corrosion issues. Even on bikes that are prone to furring up. I also tend to run away from chrome and polished metal as much on bikes as much as possible due to being totally idle. Plasticky to me is a selling point.

@jimmyjam8795 Год назад

The corrosion on the metal is because it has not been looked after. A wipe over with acf 50 gives it a nice shine and protects it all winter long if you do that every week. I rope my Interceptor all year round, fully protected with acf50, and no corrosion issues.

@steveaga4683 Год назад

Can't argue with an Aspalls. I love my ciders....but i also love my proper British Bitter on hand pump! You can keep your lagers!

@Roger.Coleman1949 Год назад

Great review in lovely setting Darcy .Sadly, the corrosion is due to salt ingress and I know this from experience.I once bought a new Yamaha XJR 1300 in March from a dealer and after a just 3 mile pre-delivery- inspection and test, the same alloy corrosion was evident , despite warning the dealer to ensure it was washed thoroughly afterwards and of course they didn't bother as it was sunny and dry !.It can languish in the road surface for months and my advice is to leave all polished bright decorative metalwork smeared permanently with a protective oil such as ACF 50 - GT 85 .It really is worthwhile !.

@martinrea8548 Год назад

That looked great 👍 That abbey building is very similar to Muckross House in Killarney, Ireland. They may very well have been designed by the same architect.

@scottboettcher Год назад

Wondering about that foggy instrument cluster - my Royal Enfield Classic 350 had that happen and it's never been wet! Whilst under a cover, etc. this winter, on cold days, my speedo had this occur. I woulda thunk they were sealed nice and tight, but I guess not. It can't be good for the electronics - hoping it doesn't crap out on me, but we do have three-year warranty, so that should do if it does die on me! great vid - nice backdrop! Ride Safe 🙏🏼

@siraff4461 Год назад

As much as I like the Enfield I'm not keen on the results of winter on it. I thought we moved past that many years ago. Indeed when I was young and lived in a flat I owned a Honda which sat outside in all weathers and its first week with me was in the snow. There was no rust/corrosion when I sold it at around 11k miles - though I did always rinse it off after any wet or salty road ride. I suppose in fairness its probably been ridden on all surfaces in all weathers and rarely washed but even still thats poor for a 1500 mile bike. I love the relaxed video. Just pottering about doing what we like to do is one of the great things too many people forget about these days. This is the more traditional side to biking and I feel too many people miss out on it because they only get a bike as a cheap way to commute. This shows there is so much more to them than that. When you're not reviewing bikes more videos like this where you're just doign bike things would be very welcome.

Here in Southern California we have the deserts and 40+ years ago I would ride out and back nearly every weekend. I no longer do that due that all the time but do visit relatives in Arizona and Oregon but I got ride of the GL1800 and bought a truck. Still have my Sportster 1200 Low and if not for the way too loud pipes that the previous owner put on it (and he got rid of the stock ones) I would give those rides a go on the Sporty. Maybe I will anyway. 🙂 Thank you for an excellent look at your beautiful countryside and the pub. SS

@twowheeledparadox Год назад

I picked up my Interceptor in December 2022 and it has just 2100 km on it. Was about to get this colour but fortunately decided on the Mark 2 chrome one instead. Matte finish is hard to maintain, though so is chrome. I haven't had any fogging yet but those corrosion marks on the engine covers are normal for bare aluminium alloy. They need to be polished every now and then. My bike also has one issue that this one does at 8:34 which is the handlebar brace. It crawls upwards on the left.

Regularly cleaning & polishing a motorcycle is part of motorcycle maintenance...but no matter how much it's cleaned & polished, these slight cosmetic issues are going to happen even with the best of materials...the only way to keep one in showroom condition is to keep it in a showroom...if it gets ridden, these things will happen no matter how diligent you are about cleaning it...regularly cleaning & polishing will certainly slow it down & keep it to a minimum, but nothing will stop it completely...

@GapBahnDirk Год назад

Salt will make a mess of the engine casings quickly if not washed off. Some maintenance is required! Gauges steaming up is a common problem with the Interceptor. It is still my favourite bike though.

@phils2180 Год назад

Really no surprise to see that bare alloy parts corrode when exposed to ready salted Winter roads. It can be avoided with either fastidious cleaning and maintenance, or leave the bike at home until Summer. Let's face it, bikes like these are not about ballistic A road performance, their forte is doing just what Mr D has done here. A leisurely ride on some nice country lanes with maybe a stop for a pint here or a coffee there. They excel at the type of riding that would prove a right PITA on a sports mount or heavyweight tourer. I went down the triumph route with a Street Scrambler and enjoy riding it as much, if not more, than the others in the garage. I think the Triumphs have the edge on finish with the durable black coated engine cases but make no mistake, neglect any bike over Winter and you will pay for it. Safe riding all👍😃.

I have a 2022 interceptor in chrome/red and I must say that the pipes are way too quiet for commuting (very dangerous to be silently filtering).

Having said that, absolutely loving the bike and zooming around the south of England between hedgerows! It's my first bike and very good as a base for customisation.

Hi the engine cases need looking after and as long as you go through the right regime they should be ok. What I see on these can be polished out to a mirror finish no problem.

Can someone explain what's wrong with me? I'm hearing good things about the Interceptor all around, yet I really really really don't like it. I went to a shop, I even looked at it closely, threw a leg over it, no love at all. I love the T120, that is my favorite bike of all and I was really curious to see if the Interceptor can come satisfying at a better price, especially the new edition that is coming up blacked out with cast wheels. I have no hate for RE, I do love the Classic 350. Though I am Darcy's height and size and I feel my arms hang a bit low on the handlebars and all my body is up high. I also don't like the super meteor for some reason. I guess that's it for me, if I'm getting an RE the Classic 350 will be. Lovely classic detailing, lovely sound, super comfy, great to take it around town. If I decide on something bigger I'll look into Triumph. Much love!

I so agree! The interceptor should be my ideal bike- my 500 classic was too low powered and vibey but had the character l love- but l can’t like it enough! I lean towards the 350 hunter for its 70’s simplicity though.

I hope they put out a 500 hunter I used to have an 865 triumph, had an off and now have an 87 gb400(faired), a 500 single in the style would be just the ticket!
