Baxter makes some of the best mild customs ever! I'm in Baja right now, but Baxter Days sounds tempting..... I wonder how many miles that would be from here to Marne..... 🤔
What mortification was done to the exhaust pipe to fit a different model? I would love to know. Looking to get the (Shotgun 650) in the future but not a fan of the stock exhaust pipes. If it’s something I can do at home it would be great. Much appreciated for your advice.
Hello really cool, especially about that forward controls. Is there a website that sells forward controls as a kit or something like that? Anything you need to make this modification?
Great looking bike. Due to my left knee being wrecked in an accident way back in 1978 I need a bike with forward controls. Always kept riding by building choppers and more recently a couple of Harley Sportsters. The Harley is now a getting bit heavy and uncomfortable for me soI had been thinking of buying a Super Meteor 650 because of the forward controls but much preferred the bobber look of the Shotgun. But now I see this I’m thinking this is it. What modifications are needed to get the super Meteor forwards to fit the Shotgun. Love the overall look of this bike. Any help much appreciated Cheers all the way from Ireland Paddy
Love that Super Meteor. Actually rode mine 640 miles yesterday...love it! Forward controls are an issue because the parts are hard to find. Baxter Cycle was able to do it by switching parts from a Shotgun & Super Meteor. RE needs to make a kit for this.
@@thefuzzybiker171 Cheers for your reply. Used Super Meteors are coming up for sale now at reasonable prices so I’ll probably go for one of those. You can get a nice set of exhausts for them and tidy up the back end with a tail tidy and smaller turn signals. Keep riding and clocking up the miles Thanks Paddy
I test drove The Super Meteor and The Shotgun and chose the shotgun because of its more sporty feel, coming mainly from the mid controls which have you leaning just a little over the bars - The pipes sound brilliant but think the forward controls take away what the shotgun is?
My thoughts are that the forward controls moved the center of weight, my legs and the controls, forward and in my opinion made the bike handle better. I actually tried to buy this bike a few days later but it had sold. That is how much I like the Shotgun and this forward control setup. PS I've called the Shotgun the best RE motorcycle made to date. It's a great motorcycle. Wahoo!
This is probably the first video on the where you’ve added a custom exhaust and upgraded the suspension. I’m waiting for someone to add a custom seat; a proper long single piece seat that can have two people sit.
That is a hard question to answer. It would depend on how I was planning to use the bike, I guess. If only one bike...Shotgun. But...there seems to be no good reason to own only one motorcycle...Wahoo!
I'm think'n that you can but must install the forward controls if using it on the Shotgun. Contact Jeremy at Baxtercycle.com for good info on this. Thanks!
@@thefuzzybiker171 do you think Baxter Cycle might be able to put together a kit of some kind? Nobody has done that so far. That I found anyway. Maybe it would be worthwhile to do so. I look forward to seeing the SM with mid controls video. Thanks.
Hi, Nice modifications, although I personally prefer the original position of the footrests. Do you know how they raised the handlebars? I was told that handlebar risers are not yet available for the Shotgun.
this is what this bikes all about, any customisation is fulfilling its purpose.
Amazing bike...can't wait to see what they do next. Wahoo!
This is the video that did it for me ! My choice has been made thanks
You're gonna love it!
Looking forward for more custom shotgun , love the video 😊
Beautiful bike...we talked about another today...Wahoo!
Nice to hear that😊 @@thefuzzybiker171
Love the sound of the new pipes.
Me too!
Sounds and looks good.
Fun machine, for sure!
I am from India. Indian's motorcycle beautiful modified exhaust system ❤
FYI I love Motorcycles, RE motorcycles, made in India. Wahoo!

You can do it! I've been riding the wheels off my Himalayan...great bikes!
Even more orchestral fun if it had an 865 kit 🎶
Amazing bike. I really want this one!
Would love to see more videos on the shotgun 650 sir😁
We were just talking about that today. Wahoo!

Baxter Cycle did all the work on this bike. Not sure how it was done. Try to contact Jeremy at Baxtercycle.com He may be able to help you out. Wahoo!
Hi couldnt find the exhaust setup on their website. I hope you can help! Thanks alot for such an amazing content 🍻✌️
Contact Jeremy at Baxtercycle.com
It looks and sounds great, like those forward-controls. I wonder if they could also be adapted to the Meteor 350?
That's a good question. I'll have to ask about that. Thanks!
@@thefuzzybiker171 Please let me know what you find out, thank you.

I think the forward controls really suit that bike....maybe they should be an option.....it's getting nearer to the old HD 883...
I really like this bike. Actually went to buy this today...Was already sold!

You are correct 🙂 the shotgun definitely is The sportiest of the two.
@@thefuzzybiker171 Did you feel that was lost at all with the forward controls? I have ordered the Shotgun. Waiting for it to arrive 😁

@@thefuzzybiker171 interesting, some great rides out here in Cambodia, so looking forward to getting out on it. Thanks for the info 🙏

Wdym? It Comes stock with the pillion seat
Sacrificed to the Gods of cool. Wahoo!
I'm struggling with this bike...Would love to have it. Wahoo!
@@Matt-d9b yeah but the seat isn’t comfortable. If supported by a really heavy subframe.
Bro. What’s the specs on that exhaust there?
I'm not sure. Contact Jeremy at Baxtercycle.com He should be able to help you out!
Where can I get the exhaust system in the UK?
Not sure. This one was from Baxtercycle.com
Hitchcocks are the main Enfield Precision people in the UK.
This bike v/s Super Meteor 650 like you have....which one would you choose if only the one is possible?
That is a hard question to answer. It would depend on how I was planning to use the bike, I guess. If only one bike...Shotgun. But...there seems to be no good reason to own only one motorcycle...Wahoo!
Yes siiiir! I knew that would be hard to answer to a degree. I totally agree on having more bikes! Thank You for your reply!!!
Can I order the same exhaust and pipes from Baxter?
I'm think'n that you can but must install the forward controls if using it on the Shotgun. Contact Jeremy at Baxtercycle.com for good info on this. Thanks!
Where can I find those turn signal holders?
Baxtercycle.com should have them. If you can't find them on the website contact Jeremy. He should be able to help you out.
I would like to convert my SM to mid controls instead of forward controls. How and what would I need to do that?
Am not sure about the how and what. Baxter Cycle did do this for a customer. I'm trying to work that bike into the schedule for a video soon. Wahoo!
