    That back rack really sets it off , can you get a usb extension with a water proof plug , just feed under the tank and bring it out in front of the clock

    Cheers Mark 👍 yes I've seen you can get a lead but think RE could have built it with one at the Handlebars ESPECIALLY as the bike comes with the tripper navigation..

    Agree with your niggles about the 650. I bought an Ultimate Add ons, dual accessories handlebar charger. Bit of a pain to keep feeding cables back and forth. This fitted gives me 2 USB ports and a din socket permanently fixed to the handlebar. As for the rev counter I'm waiting for the add on one like the one for the Classic 350 to come out 🤞

    Whoop, nice to to be finally introduced to Raul! He looks a happy little fellow. I also saw the Mr Darcy review of yhe SM650 and think it was little harsh, he is usually reviewing the HD breakout and BMW R18 so it wouod he worth mentioning that the RE is 1/3 to 1/4 of the price of those bikes. I'm not sure why that came out why it did or perhaps there had been so many glowing reviews of the SM that he just wanted to take a differet take on it. Who knows. I do think you picked the best colour in Astral Green, that is the one I'd have...

    For anyone that is interested. I found a forum that said that the 650 interceptor has to have valve adjustments every 6,000 miles or 12 months regardless of miles. Their is no reason that valves should need ajusting every 12 months regardless of distance driven. That is ridiculous vibrations and use causes things to come loose and strech not sitting still.

    you only have to adjust valves after said mileage has been done time frame doesn't come into it basic engineering they just want your money because they think people would find this job hard its not just take your time and watch the videos.

    I think the 2024 Interceptor has the same switch gear as the SM with the usb underneath, which would suggest that there might already be the screw holes under the current SM switch gear and connections inside the headlight to add this on. I don't yet own an SM so cannot verify what I'm suggesting but I do know the usb on the Classic can be easily unscrewed from the underside of the switch gear and disconnected from within the headlight (mine failed).
