  • Nice to see that one of the big-bore RE's is getting ridden and documented. I know of a half-dozen here in the U.S. and although the owners post a video (or videos during the build) ... where are they? Nothing is mentioned nor discussed on the FB sites that pertains to internal engine modifications, instead it is all about the "bling" on the outside. At any rate, both of our bikes are running good, it sounds like you may be having some clutch slip occasionally, I am just installing a Rekluse clutch in my Interceptor 750; bike is at 42,000 miles and the top-end (cam, pistons, etc) has 14,500 miles in the last 13 months. Can't say enough good things about the WiseCo 83.5mm pistons and how well they perform.
  • hey mate, have a 21 interceptor, bottom line you think its worth doing the upgrade? love the bike been thinking bout doing it, sounds shit hot by the way. Is it still as smooth to ride?
  • Sounds good, very good but not Raw or Roar.Take the baffles out for A ROAR ...
