I actually love this bike
It is a really nice one☺️
Of course, sell it. I came to this channel to watch adventures on the xj600s. I even bought my own and am now trying to install EFI on it.
Don’t worry the xj is not forgoton. I am still in the Process of Fixing it.
I think these are a novelty bike , there are lots for sale , it’s a nostalgic buy if I wanted a second bike to pop to the shops on maybe
Thanks very Much!!! I am willing to buy a blacked interceptor. Now, i have got information to consider to buy the chrome in a used status..... Best greetz from Köln!
Super das ich dir da weiterhelfen konnte vergess nicht Schrauben in die lehren boorungen zu machen um Rost zu vermeiden
I totally enjoyed riding your bike and personally see these issues as so-called „wear-and-tear“ items that can be upgraded bit by bit as time goes on. It’s good 🙏🏽honesty to inform us on those holes and other rust spots that will enable us to counteract them.
Suspension upgrades can transform a motorcycle for the better once they start sagging down, again these are „wear-and-tear“ items that can be replaced for something better and stronger.
Best greetings from Düsseldorf
Sher 😉
Thank you for the super nice comment and i agree with your Perspektive i will just replace Everything that goes
@@FreeMilesMC It’s where the producers save money on the end price so, over time it’s up to us to bring our bikes up to their full potential…🍀
I enjoy your Interceptor content. Not planning one allows me to enjoy the bike until the day I do own one. I sense that it has become a bit sentimental for you, despite its flaws.
How did you get to the name Free Miles? That's an expression I use for when I use my bike to go away on business trips and get my petrol and accommodation paid for
Oh what a coincidence. I got to the name as this is my actual name my name is miles free and I just turned it around as it sounded nice for a motorcycle channel
Try applying ACF50 or even better XCP rust blocker to orevent rusting
Thanks for the tip ☺️
Both products are good and XCP has shown to be slightly better than ACF 50. The XCP Rust Blocker High Performance is supposed to be the best but is quite thick, whereas the XCP Clearcoat is more for the parts that are visible.
this is good looking bike ,but I choose japanise quality trustworth Kawasaki w800 limit edition ;)
That’s also a lovely bike would love to ride one one day ☺️
The rubber parts breaking that quick is pretty ridiculous.. I’ve owned old Japanese dual sports that rubber covers and protectors parts were still fine after 10-15 years
Yes Same thing with 30 year old japanese bike. But in the Overall Price Inhaber got the bike for it’s Fine i will replace the Rubber with some other rubbers
@@FreeMilesMC fair if you got it really cheap. I’m looking at the Himalayan 450 and this video is making me wonder if I should just go with a Honda or Suzuki instead 😕
Glasses steals the show.
The Question is: Is it possible to Black the chrome interceptor. Via using other Pipes an paint the Motor(?)?(?) - for cheap money. That would be possible the solution!
BUT : How is the Tyre? Reifen mit Schlauch?? Do you often got a puncture? -lots of people prefer the Gußfelgen. und schauchlos. Cause its lighter and just better. What do you think???
Hatte noch keine Platten mal schauen wie es weiter geht. Ansonsten würd ich sagen Joa kann man machen kommt auf den Preis der gebrauchten an aber würd warscheinlich die dann crom behalten und einfach pflegen so lange es hält und dann einen originalen Auspuff in Matt nachrüsten sobald deiner nicht mehr schön ist bis dahin sind die bestimmt auch billig
It's my opinion that Royal Enfield motorcycles are poorly engineered and also have many sub standard parts. However, when it comes to paint it's a common problem these days as manufacturers have to use less toxic paint which is water based. The result is the new paint is just not up to the old standard. And if like me, you buy a new black bike (Honda) then be prepared to see every single mark. I'll not buy a black bike again.
Oh, thanks for the Info with the paint i did Not know that ☺️
This bike is a hard "Nope!" for me. The rust and rubber falling off such a new bike is ridiculous. It would really piss me off 😅
Yes you are right that’s a tough pill to swallow. That’s why it’s good to have the info out there so people can make a decision with this in mind
Mine has 13,000km on it and has 0 problems. Well, I live in the tropics. LOL But I wanted to buy the old Classic 500 with vibrations.
From now on you should ride it properly, just like you said. :)
Dude Interceptor engine is so much fun even in slow speeds and 100kmph, so careful with what you choose next, I see some suggesting cb500x those are super boring engines. If you like this engine and need more power I’m guessing it would either T100 and T120, I didn’t like Speed Twin 1200 compared to Interceptor, I’m not mentioning power figures but fun.
Das mit dem Chrom und poliertem Aluminium hast du mit jedem Bike. Poliertes Alu ist nur schön, wenn man es permanent pflegt, poliert und im Winter schützt. Das ist natürlich viel Arbeit. Wenn du ALU mit Klarlack lackierst, dann verliert es den schönen Glanz und wirkt langweilig. Das hast du bei vielen früheren japanischen Bikes. Dann, wenn der Klarlack abblättert, sieht es sehr unschön aus. Zum Thema Schwartz:: Der schwarz pulverbeschichtete Motor der Himalayan ist hält hervorragen, auch im Winter. Das sollte also kein Problem sein. In die offenen Gewinde kannst du einfach Fett eindrücken und gut ist. Das ist ohnehin nur oberflächlich. VG
Hast schon recht ist bei allen dieser bikes Arbeit. Aber wen man sich anschaut wie viel besser das cool an einer Triumph bonnevill hält ist das schon ein wenig erschreckend
@@FreeMilesMC naja die Bonnie kostet auch etwas mehr und hast du die Gescxhichte bei Freddy Dobbs Kanal mitbekommen? Er hat glaube ich 5 Monate auf eine neue Kopfdichtung for die Maschine gewartet und das in UK 😅. Das wartet man bei RE nicht. Also ich würde durchdrehen wenn ich so lange nicht fahren könnte weil ein Hersteller nicht in der Lage ist eine simple Kopfdichtung zu liefern 😀
@e30tutorials ja da hast du vollkommen recht. Royal Enfield ist da besser unterwegs. Hab ja auch einen Vergleich zwischen den bikes gemacht und muss sagen das die interceptor auf alle Fälle gewinnt. Und naja das koredirungsproblem ist da aber irgendwo muss der Preis ja herkommen. Und ich glaube das in einer anderen Klima Zone wäre das eigentlich auch kein Ding.
Enough power…you’re kidding…it’s slow and ponderous.
Not everyone wants to ride the street like it’s a racetrack
my neighbor got a new royal enfield last summer and parked it in our hof without a tarp for the entire winter. Now the chrome has dark spots everywhere. I think the seat also soaked in the water from the looks of it. I have no idea where this guy is, maybe he does remote work or something. Bike looks miserable though. I feel sad looking at it.
Uff thats tuff at some Point the bike cant recover from that 😬
For the price you paid it's a great deal, however as you said the price they want for them new is bad value.
Hehe....now you realise Enfield is basically " posh " bike and it is NOT xj600 , the bike you LOVED TO DROP to see how STRONG she is ! 😂 ....and this one....every scratch HURTS...😂😂
if you can get your cash back,deffo sell. You'll get bored with it eventually
Thanks for the advice ☺️
Sell it and buy a Honda! XD
I‘ll put it on the List of bikes to Check out ☺️
I understand your dilema....it's too nice for you , bad boy , go and neglect your first love , xj , you are abuser, that what Enfield things....can she think actually? 🤔😀
And honda is better? You buy a new honda and if you are lucky, it is ok, but if you don't, like me, you will change a lot of parts and bolts and not all on waranty. My bike, a cb500x is 3 years old and 17000km, all the black plastic parts from the comands are faded since the first year, also the mirror holders. Rear pegs support it has some stains/corosion. Some stains on the exhaust, that looks like rust. Some have rust on the fork. And the other problems were deformed tyres from the factory, wobble because of the tyres, stem bearing, water pump losing oil, chain with stuck links from new. Now i think one of the rear bearing is bad. So wich is beter? A RE that has some rust on the chrome, on some little rubber parts that are cracking or a honda with all those problems since day one. Now I have the Honda, but i think one of RE model will be my next bike. Why? Because the overall mentainance is cheaper and easy to do with basic tools and in a very small amount of time. And if some little rubber part will crack I will change it, even print it. Till now 4 bolts on my Honda got longer. 2 from the engine mounts and two from the front brake caliper. So 4 important bolts. And if you make all the meintenance in honda dealers you will pay a lot more money for the service. Around 200 euros for a simple oil change, and I think ofer 500 euros for valve clearances, and if you need some new shims, you will have the bike in the garage for the next 2 weeks till the prts arrive. This is how it is in my country. I haven't look at this when I bought the bike. I liked the model very much and still like it. But someting got away.
@@FreeMilesMC CB500X would fit into your price range (has FI and ABS, and is similar power to interceptor too, first models ~€3500), but I'm not sure if it would fit You. Otherwise, its bulletproof world traveler on and (light-ish) off the road. I don't go into the mudpits and deep sands with mine, but it handles everything else with no problems. Did ~20000km in one season while touring local and EU, and all I had to do was put the gas in. 😁
Very "boring" bikes compared to RE. Just hear the engine...
