I ride this bike every day to and from office (for the past 3 yearsss), and here I am listening to its noise even when I am working. I just cant get enough of the way this bike sounds! It gives me a tingling feeling just the way it behaves!
The master cylinder is a great upgrade, and relatively easy. What is not so easy is fitting a Brembo 4 pot calliper - I have now fitted the 4 pot brakes and a larger 330mm rotor which is a significant improvement in both additional braking and feel at the lever.
Damn damn... I haven't been able to focus on anything you said. The friigin exhaust is 🤪😍.
If your bike could speak it would sound like Morgan Freeman lol great work mate
High praise indeed. Thank you.
The quality of your videos and the skill level that you possess is amazing. The mods that you do are very tasteful. Don't stop uploading.
Thank you sir. More videos on the way :)
@@WildlifeMoto I own a interceptor as well. But I find it challenging to find the that you suggest here in India. Could you share the international links for the mods that you have. If it's not too much to ask.
@@abhishekpm1038yes please @wildlifemoto
Now we now that the Interceptor van swim.
Yep, it makes a great boat.
Exchaust note sounds really nice and that's via a camera, bet it better in the flesh.
Like what your doing with your bike,feel inspired to buy one my self and do the same.
Yes the mics don't really do it justice. I'd highly recommend it if you are looking for a new motorcycle project.
I’ve done the Brembo sintered pads and wow what a difference. Cheap mod and highly recommended. More power and feel straight off, even in the wet! Just waiting for the Brembo master cylinder and clutch to arrive.
Nice! Yes, they really do sharpen up the brakes. Good luck with the MC install. Did you see the new discs from EBC? I think I’ll be chucking these on soon too!
If it isn’t raining there, it just finished raining. Good video. Looking at brembo upgrades myself
Another fab video - thanks! They even laid on a river for you to test out your brakes, LOL. Once I get my Enfield (next spring) I`ll re-visit this video as I spent most of the time with my ears tuned to your wonderful and evocative `zaust notes! All the best and thanks again.
Haha. Yes, i though we were going to find out how well she floats at one point! Glad these videos will help when you get the bike. Cheers.
Running Avon Roadrider 2's on my 650GT, well recommended 👌
Got my eyes on these too. Thanks
That exhaust sounded GOOD!
Been waiting for this one! Awesome work
Thanks Daniel. 👍
Love the brake mod, I didn’t think £500 was too bad, definitely worth it if your keeping the bike long term.
Thanks Ian. And that also includes the clutch side too, which is a great upgrade in its own right. Thanks for watching sir.
Well, at last you got your brakes done. The Master Cylinder looks cool. I was not expecting water logging in the streets where you live. Here it’s more of a regular thing during the monsoon season and 2 or 2.5 feet of water is ok for the Interceptor to keep up with!
Any deeper and I think it would have started to float. The bike handled it perfect (not sure about me though). Cheers.
Damn ... i think this is probably the best practical upgrade on an interceptor. Also, THE BEST sounding exhaust I've heard on an interceptor. Fantastic 👏 👏
I like this motorcycle too. Thank you for information.
My pleasure
In india especially in kerala(a state of india),if we do these kind of mods we are f***ked up. You are blessed bro🤣
Sorry man, yes the Motor Vehicle Act 2019 looks like the end of modifications in India. Solution - get an R1
I feel ya bro
Another Indian here
Another indian here too (SIKKIM)and im using AEW EXHAUSTS ….sounds really good and not a prob from cops as well😜😝
@@sonamlhoday4630 we are literally living in hell bro! 🤣
Cracking upgrades 👍
Thanks Tony
Very good information. Thank you. I changed (until now) just the pads from OEM to Brembo sinter pads (front and rear): As you said down below they give remarkably better sheer stopping force for front AND rear the difference being greater for the rear pads. Would be interesting to get an impression of OEM brake pads together with the RCS 15 Master Cylinder. Can you test this ? Greetings from Germany.
Hi Herman. I really should have tested the pads first without the MC but I didn’t have time. Sadly I no longer have the OEM pads.
@@WildlifeMoto Hi Wildlife, that's not a real issue as the results can be expected: the MC with OEM pads should give better feeling but may be not enough sheer brake power. And Brembo sinter pads with OEM MC definitely give better brake power while the feeling may not be perfect. Thank you again for your videos. Best regards
Introducing the new Royal Enfield Jetski! 😂😂🤣
OMFG, what pipes are you using? The exhaust note is orgasmic 😁. I loved it👍👍
Scorpion Red Power twin pipes. Cheers
@@WildlifeMoto 👍
Great video. Good information.
Thanks Vishal :)
Nice mod. I guessing you didn’t do a test with just the new pads fitted first. That way you would know if the improvement is down to pads or the cylinder upgrade or a combination of both. Good to see an alternative that works.
That would have been far too sensible. I think the pads have improved the sheer stopping force (through greater friction), and the MC has improved the “feel” on the lever.
Royal Enfield Benelux has recently issued a recall action for the stock Brembo brakes. It seems that salt on the roads can cause harm to the brakes. They will be replaced by inonised brakes. This could solve the breaking issue for some bikes.
Another very enjoyable vid (hope your feet have dried out!!)....also looking forward to the new WM website.
Can you please post links/info to the master cylinder/lever/reservoir/bracket etc, and also the clutch clamp/lever? Thanks.
Great tip about using Oven Pride to remove coloured anodising.
With regard to the future mods of new tyres.......have you considered Avon Roadriders? Loads more grip and feedback than the OE mock Pirelli's offer, plus British tyres on a British bike (if in name only!) is quite in-keeping I feel.
I ordered the RSC15 with the TWM clutch perch from a company in Italy called Omnia Racing. Now before you rush out and order from them I will say that I wasn’t happy with their service. It took far too long for them to ship the item. Here is the link. www.omniaracing.net/en/kit-combo-twm-folding-clutch-adj-lever-and-master-cylider-brake-pump-brembo-rcs-long-lever-p-27609.html. The rizoma gear was ordered from Calsport in the U.K. who are absolutely fantastic, however you have to enter a specific bike to get to the rizoma gear, but this link should work. calsport.co.uk/triumph-daytona-765-20-2020/rizoma. I’m not sure what rubber to go for yet, but I’ll have a look into the Avon range. Cheers.
Really amazing, I am doing a lot of stuff you have done to yours, couple of parts I missed out on, but thanks to you, we are back on track ! Can you share the link for the clutch lever ?
Hi. I ordered it from Omnia Racing in Italy. This is the link to the full kit. www.omniaracing.net/en/kit-combo-twm-folding-clutch-adj-lever-and-master-cylider-brake-pump-brembo-rcs-long-lever-p-27609.html. I didn’t have a great experience with this company as the shipping took a very long time, but you might have better luck.
@@WildlifeMoto this is including the master cylinder brake lever and clutch lever or just master cylinder and brake lever?
I realise that this is an older video now, but are you able to tell me what the colour scheme is on your Interceptor? It's much better than the current colour scheme offerings.
Glad you like it .
Great tip :)
@@WildlifeMoto i think there are also direct mount Reservoirs for the rcs 15
@@fabianoH5N1 I think only for the Corsa Corta version?
Great mod dude 👌 now you just need a snorkel 😂😂
Haha. It’s still raining so I should get one ordered.
Do you have the part number for the Brembo clutch perch? Great video btw! I just picked up a 2021 continental GT 650
Very interesting. Would have been good to change only the pads first. Then we would know how much improvement was due to the master cylinder and how much to the pads.
Good video. But you need a new sat nav that doesn't send you via Venice. 😎
True, I believe the pads are bringing more power and the MC a much more precise feel. Maybe i'll get some OEM pads re-installed for a test down the line. And yes I 100% need to get a new sat nav! haha
I think the stock front brake is fine the rear feels very wimpy
Great detailing. Could u plz provide a link to the Brembo brake pads for interceptor. Thanks

I know I've seen it somewhere on your channel, but what is the lsl handlebar model you have. Is it the superbike or superbike flat? Just ordered an interceptor last week and the handlebars will be one of the first changes. Always love the look of yours.
Hi Julian, these are the Superbike bars.:)
Thanks very much, really appreciate it. Been checking out the Baak site as well, some really nice products. Hope your Christmas and new year is going well. Looking forward to your 2021 posts. Cheers
Great upgrade. Is that front brake reservoir the Rizoma CT027 model?
Yes, I believe it is.
Ive had my rear brake fail on the 2019 RE 650 twice now. It happens arfter the bikes sat for a month or more as i have a few bikes. But every time its sat i must check it and bleed it if needed?. No signs of leakage or anything and ive seen a few videos of other riders that have the same issue and no one can explain it?.
Woah, man had a moment @10:01
Yep, that guy wanted to soak me 😂
@@WildlifeMoto nicely done, there could've been a pot hole anywhere in that river. Surf's up!
I got this same setup thanks to you! But the clutch safety switch is not working. I can only start my bike in neutral and not in first gear with clutch pulled, kickstand is up. Do you think I can just connect both wires for the safety switch together?
What were those bicyclists going to do when they encounter the flooded road?
I imagine they got as wet as I did.
Is your exhaust standard? Sounds great
No it’s Hitchcocks open headers with Scorpion Red Power end cans. You can order the full system through Hitchcocks.
What is the fitting from the bottom of the brake cylinder connecting to the brake line???? I can't find anything and was looking at getting a custom fitting...
I like the idea of upgrading the brakes at some point. I hope the cyclists you passed went through the road river ☺️
What kind of MPG do you get on this engine? I have the same engine with similar mods and I’m trying to see what others are getting
Would RCS 17 be better for the Master?
Its always nice when you make it your own and personalize your bike. What do the squiggly lines on the road mean? Just wondering.
Hi Nathan, what lines? Send me the time in the video and I'll tell you. Cheers
Would you be so kind to share your exhaust Mod. I own a 2022 interceptor, and would love that exhaust.
Hitchcocks open pipes with scorpion red power mufflers. Great combo.
So what was the rationale for the decision to get the RCS15? why not RCS14 or RCS17? Thanks
Bike firing exhaust sounds great.. Have you custom fixed.
Hi. Yes this bike has Scorpion Red Power pipes and Hitchcocks Headers. 👍
Anyone know what model number brembo sinter pads I'd need for this
Ah so you went for the master cylinder mod instead. (I did the same on a Triumph Thruxton)
Are you going to do anything with the back brake ?
Yes I will start with the Sinter Pads on the rear. I used to be ok with the rear brake, but it now feels too soft in comparison to the front. Hopefully the pads will do the job.
Hi, very interesting. You did not mention the size of the std piston in the std master cylinder. Could you tell me please?
Many thanks.
Graham. 😎
I don’t actually know for sure. It has 19 stamped on it, but there is no way it can be 19mm. I’m thinking around 12. I asked Royal Enfield and didn’t get a clear answer
from the camera view, it looks like you can't really see the handlebar mirrors because arms are in the way?
Yes they are not in the best position on this ride. I may flip them up next time.
After doing weeks of Research i will ditch the rcs15 plan and go with magura hc1 . The rcs doesnt have any certifications needed for us here in germany
That’s surprising as Brembo are a global brand. Good luck with the Magura, I had this brand on my KTM, very high quality kit. HC1 looks slick too. How are you going to get a matching leaver on the clutch side?
@@WildlifeMoto accossato or extreme components have a all black perch
I'm not sure if its the mic you used to record, but your Scorpion pipes sounds a little more aggressive and deeper toned than mine. I do not have the Power Commander, and mine burble a lot more when rolling off the throttle. Could this be why?
Hi Jeff, it will most likely be the mic. I also run without the baffles.
@@WildlifeMoto Thanks for the reply! I should have mentioned I have the baffles out as well.
Does you bike still have ABS ? From 2013 European Union made ABS mandatory on all new motorcycles over 125cc.
With the conversion, has it affected the ABS ? Or there is no ABS with the Brembo? If you do make sure the sensor is kept clean . Big puddles will cause the ABS fail light to come on . ... normal function- it comes on when starting the bike and goes out once you start moving. Letting you know it’s functioning.
Hi. Yes the ABS still works perfect fine, nothing has changed in that regard. And it turns out that you can indeed ride the Interceptor through a river without the light coming on. Although I might have gotten lucky.
What Clutch lever are you using or would recommend as a good match to the BLACK Brembo Brake Lever with the RCS15. The stock levers on my GT 650 are rubbish silver. Will be doing this upgrade after the 865 Big Bore Kit goes it. Just ordered a set of S.S. Headers from Reverly Cycles in Australia (couldn't wait any longer), now I'm ok to have the 865 go in. Will need better stopping with more power.
It’s a TWM clutch perch with a TMW lever. It’s identical to the Brembo on the RCS15.
Are you able to provide a model number? The TWM website is confusing.
@@brookcampbell2940 Here it is. www.omniaracing.net/en/twm-folding-assembly-clutch-adjustable-lever-with-micro-switch-for-street-and-race-motorikes-p-27606.html
Did you try with Brembo pads only before fitting the new master cylinder?
I didn't (I should have). Having said that, i've read many accounts of people getting great results with just the pads.
Hello there
I have been facing a lot of issue with rear brakes on my interceptor, after 15 kms of highway riding the rear brake fails completely, I have to wait for 10-15 minutes and then brakes are back to normal.
I wish if anyone can point out the issue and how to fix it?
You are riding with your foot touching the brake lever the pucks are dragging on the disc and heating up
Which exhaust is installed? it sounds very good
Scorpion Red Power
What is the link for that RIZOMA pot you purchased for the brembo Mast.Cyl.
Here you go. www.moorespeedracing.co.uk/fluid-reservoir-pots-misc/RIZCT027B.html?gclid=CjwKCAiA_Kz-BRAJEiwAhJNY728zzEHWTLs47X6alF3rhgzq1FgaSLvjWo8iqyGiqi8kdemNp6Qf_hoCY-IQAvD_BwE
How was the original rear brake. I've done 3500 miles on my Interceptor and it feels next to useless, no problems with the front one though.
It's always been "soft" but now it's really feeling inadequate compared to the performance of the front. I will have to at least change the pads.
Does it work properly with a stock ABS?
Yep
What about keeping the stock reservoir with the brembo master cylinder? Would that be possible?
No, the stock system is all integrated.
Does the abs still kicks in?
Yep still works just fine
Hi, just received my brembo master cylinder and twm clutch perch. Had a doubt about electrical wiring to the clutch perch. What is that for? Noticed something in the package as well.
That will be the side stand safety switch.
@@WildlifeMoto cool, thanks.
Reminds me of a canal boat holiday I went on my wife got more than wet feet as she fell in.
Noooooo. Hope you fished her out ok!
Hi mate, what exhausts you got on that, they sound awesome.
Hi mark. These are the Scorpion Red Power cans. Cheers.
@@WildlifeMoto thanks mate, appreciated 👌🏼
Are you running the scorpion exhaust without the baffles?
That depends. Are you a cop? Haha.
Nothing so sinister lol. I have the same on my continental 650 and run with the baffles in but love the sound of yours! Can’t make my mind up with or without..
Defoe going to try the brembo pads. Keep up the good work.
@@stevenrobinson2487 Yes the baffles are out in this video. I think it's a nice balance between tone and volume. They are not stupidly loud.
I've only ever bought black anodized parts but anodized finishes always fade in the sun for me. I've ended up having to repaint any black anodized part I've bought because they fade to a weird gold-brown color in the sun.
Not much chance of that happening in the UK, haha. But over time, I've really come to dislike any anodized part (unless it's black).
Is this kit designed just for Interceptor or Continental ?
The RCS system is universal, I picked the RCS15 as it's the best match for the factory calipers.
Been watching these bikes with interest. Come to the conclusion visually nice but mechanically sad too much of a spend
This thing is loud
It's not "that" loud, it probably seems louder as I have a mic in my bag.
I really love the content of your videos. What I also totally hate, is having to watch 15mins of riding, talking about facts that could be delivered it 2mins. It just wastes my time. And yes, you 're not alone with that whack concept, Stuart is even worse. No Idea where it came from, that delivering information in a toooootallly slow way was a good way.
