    You weren’t kidding with the last bolt. I finally ended up finding the hole with one arm and the other arm hugged around the other side. I pinned it down with the left hand finger and twisted it with a finger on my right hand. I feel better than five minutes ago now that it’s installed. 😂

    Hi Stuart from NZ. Thanks for your good advice and clear instructions. Just received my stainless steel chain guard for my Interceptor from Hitchcocks and looking forward to installing it. Couldn’t believe how quickly it got here - about a week!!

    Hello again Stuart, I agree with you on the plastic mudguards, the front one on my 1980 Benelli 900 Sei is made of plastic, to give the forks rigidity I fitted a "Telefix" fork brace. I only ever had one drive chain snap, it was in 1982 when I was riding my old Triumph T160V Trident, fortunately the chain unrolled harmlessly onto tarmac. I have heard of other riders failed chain locking up the rear wheel and even knocking a hole in the engine case, nasty.

    It's a very long time since I got my hands dirty doing my own maintenance, but your very interesting presentation reminded me how much joy and satisfaction I used to get from doing seemingly minor modifications. And a belated happy birthday from Australia. Phil.

    I've purchased them all.
    I'm signing up patreon now and I suspect that's an expensive longer term decision.

    Great stuff Stu.
    I'm drawn to the interceptor not just because I like the retro look.
    But the price means you can upgrade bits without breaking the bank.
    Agreed on the mud guards.
    Most of my old 1970s bikes what ever the make tended to suffer from fatigue around the mounting bolt holes specially the alloy ones.
    Plastic is a good material and imho
    the interceptor is retro looking not a 1960s copy thank God.
    I don't want carbs ,points ,coil and weeping sump gaskets thanks very much

    Another good video, as you can say I don't think anyone can complain about plastic parts especially looking at the price of the bike, my mate just bought an Interceptor and he's well pleased with it but has done a bit of personalisation with parts from Hitchcocks which is local to us.

Other than that they have also the same brushed metal chain guard and sum guard. I would recommend any Indian biker who has Interceptor or Continental GT to check that out and the quality is awesome! I can personally vouch for it.

    • @daveinwla6360
      @daveinwla6360 Před 3 lety +3

      I think the primary reason why motorcycles aren't designed with enclosed chains
      (which is usual for industrial chain drives) is simply because it doesn't look cool.
      It's also unsprung weight, and a chain break in an enclosed space may be just
      awful to watch.

    • @MotoTrooper
      @MotoTrooper Před 3 lety +2

      In my parts the dukes and enfields come with the open chain setup, but the standard commuter bikes do come with enclosed chains. I used to think it looked boring, but is more functional and keeps a lot of the dirt out requiring little to no maintenance

    • @davidmacgregor5193
      @davidmacgregor5193 Před 3 lety +2

      A few motorcycles have been produced with a fully enclosed chain guard, Honda CG125 and MZ TS250 Supa 5, spring to mind with me. If my memory serves me well the drive chain ran in an oil bath, so as well as being protected from dust and grime the chain is constantly being lubricated. The MZ had rubber gaiters to allow for suspension travel. My current ride, an H-D Sportster has a belt drive which is cleaner than a chain, doesn't need adjusting as often as a chain and if looked after properly, the belt can last up to 100k miles.
