    Great video! I'm the proud owner of a Shotgun 650 in plasma blue, just like the one you rode, and I absolutely love it. I had a Meteor 350, which I loved as well, but it just couldn't quite keep up on the freeways here in Phoenix, AZ. The Shotgun looks a lot like my Fireball Yellow Meteor, with all the blacked out bits. And with the 300 extra cc's, it's just perfect. So I traded my 350 in on one after test riding one at a demo event. I fell in love immediately. I still think the Meteor 350 is a brilliant bike as well, and in a perfect situation, I would be able to own both. But having to choose one, the Shotgun was the clear choice for me.

      yes. that's my view as well. if only we all had bigger garages and more money. you made the right choice though. its a good upgrade on the 350.

    I have an Interceptor 2019, bought secondhand last year as a stock bike with 5,500 miles on it, upgraded rear shocks to Hagon, bought a pair of alloy wheels from India for about £350 including import charges, fitted Bridgestone BT46 tubeless tyres, added a Givi screen, RE panniers/rails and Givi rack, USB port, TEC Cannon Exhaust, came with touring seat, DNA air filter. It’s now the bike a really want and makes for a great do everything bike. Also have a Hunter 350 and Scram 411 and ride them all regularly (understanding wife is a must!). Changing between the bikes really highlights the positives of each bike, more power from Interceptor and long distance ability, Scram for riding around pot holed Sussex lanes and Hunter for relaxed bimbling around the countryside taking in the scenery plus the Hunter is smaller and lighter, reminds me of the Yamaha RD250 I had as a teenage back in the 70s , different power delivery but probably a more relaxed ride. Great video by the way, subscribed👍

    I just took advantage of the Motogb sell off. I got a Meteor 350 for £3200 on the road from Robinsons of Rochdale. They were superb to deal with.

    • @GillyBikes
      @GillyBikes  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Great stuff. You definitely have to take advantage of these low prices. It’s going to be a shock for people when the prices jump up £2000 over night.

    best looking RE bike they produce now, and looks like they go ok, obviously not fast but fast enough to break any UK speed limit and that is enough for many people, great review by the way

    • @GillyBikes

      They do look nice. I agree with you about the looks. Definitely fast enough and thank you 😁

    Testrode the green one the other day here in DK. Just to kill curiosity. I really wanted to not like it. But mission failed...now I want one! The one I tested had a 2into1 exhaust. (S&S)Sounded so good! And I might be wrong, but it felt like the Shotgun had a more eager engine than the Interceptor. Maybe due to exhaust?
    Swapping those chimneys will probably save alot of weight. And the centerstand, and the rearseat arrangement. Will probably shave 20-30 kilos.
    And I agree, I would pick the Shotgun! Thank you!

    The Shotgun 650 has a 2 step ignition, it's usually good practice to do one click and wait 5 for the fuel pump to kick in and then go for ignition...just my 2 cents

    Test rode a shotgun last weekend. Went to do a deal PXing my 22 plate interceptor and got offered a deal of £3200 because this nonsense with MotoGB so my Interceptor has lost over 50% in just over 2 years. That spannered the purchase. Not happy because I loved the Shotgun.

    • @GillyBikes

      I had the same issue with my Yamaha. Mine had lost 50% in 10 months. It sucks.

    Good review sir. I rode this very bike at the beginning of June & loved it. I told them at the time that the rear reflector had fallen off. Obviously it's slipped their minds 🙄. Regards, Mo 😊 👍.

      @GillyBikes No. Two days later l tested a V7 Stone and loved that even more 😄. I haven't decided on a change yet. My current bike is a Gen2 ZZR1400 which lve had for over 5yrs so l'm still considering my options as comfort & weight are starting to become my priorities. Regards, Mo 😊 👍

    Good review. Glad I don't live in England cause your yellow number plates are way too large and detract from the beaut motorcycle. Here in Australia our rear only number plates are half the size and you can put on a customised coloured plate!

      Yes. They are pretty bad over here. If you put a small plate on you will definitely be fined. Stupid rules.
