I like the modifications you’ve made ! It’s nice to see a bike tastefully modified when the owner has left the hacksaw and the angle grinder in the toolbox 😉👍.

You are absolutely correct the right things have been modded

Great job. You’re so right about suspension and tyres, best mods by far. My R9T was totally transformed. Love what you’ve done with this, love the pipe too

Cheers, funnily enough it’s an R9T that I’m hoping to buy. Loved them since they first launched and it’s what I would have bought over the street twin, but the prices were just too high for me.

R9T only compares to Speed Twin not Street Twin. I almost bought the 9T but ended up going for the prettier (imo) ST1200. The 9T is very customisable though I’d potentially be interested in the RE if still for sale

Looking great the back end and seat has given the bike a big lift.Thanks for the content i love taking as much as i can off a bike.

Awesome job on the whole back end of the bike --- the rack, seat, exposed frame, tire, fender, and light. I really like it. Glad you didn't just toss on a "tail tidy" and call it a day.

Looks great mate... I prefer the new exhaust set up vs the short underslung one. Customising bikes is a never ending story... are they ever finished? Be a shame to sell it, but I fully get it, am selling my custom Moto Guzzi V7, or at least trying to as well. It has only gone to the MoT and back the last 2 years pretty much.

Like it love the seat and rack also the exhaust looks and sounds great 👍

Most enjoyable video. Your slight (!) modifications have almost all been major improvements, but I would not risk those miniscule indicators snuggling up to the headlight. One splatted bug . . . When Royal Enfield made motorcycles previously, Morris Minors had indicators that flipped up to flash. Sexy. Have you considered installing something similar? Or hand signals with dayglo gloves?

@mancavemoto

The plan is to add stalks to space them out a little further. I had a '59 VW Beetle Cabrio that had semaphore signals, but nobody looks for those these days

Interested to know where you found the shocks at £650. Everywhere I’ve looked has them at £750+

To be fair, I did them quite a while ago, I haven’t kept up with the latest prices

I wonder if he can make the short seat and rack fit my Bonnieville? The bikes are so similar

Needs a little pillion pad to cover the rack for that occasional 2-up requirement.

True, but I’ve removed the pillion pegs too. Might be a good suggestion for the company though 👍

I've got another question. What's the bike you're considering to replace this one? 😉

I would stop modifying it and sell it as it is with all its original parts. Further modifications paint, clocks, etc. would best be left to the new owner.

Love the bike, interested if you sell it
