Royal Enfield 650 Custom Parts from Le Motographe…
The Royal Enfield 650 twins have been hits since their inception in 2018, becoming best-sellers in markets like the UK. The Interceptor 650 (aka INT 650 here in the States) is the retro naked version, while the Continental 650 GT is the café-inspired version. Both utilize the company’s new air-cooled 650 parallel-twin engine, and the frames were developed in collaboration with legendary UK chassis-builder Harris Performance.
Our friends at MCN, who aren’t afraid to tell it like it is, were well impressed with the 650’s build quality, style, handling, and value for the money:
“Forget everything you know about old Royal Enfields because the new Interceptor 650 is in a different league. It still oozes old-school Enfield simplicity, but it’s well-built, classily finished and packed with well thought-out detail touches. It’s light, easy to ride, fun and handles incredibly well.” –MCN
Like the BMW R NineT, the Royal Enfield 650 twins were developed as canvases for customization. Royal Enfield continues to provide donors to some of the world’s best custom builders via their Custom World program, and a number of builders and fabricators are building out lines of custom parts so owners can personalize their bikes at home.
One of the best in the business is France’s Le Motographe. Founder Jerome grew up riding and racing enduro bikes, and he won our hearts with several popular builds such as the WR450F “Skeleton” and WR450F “Rally Beast” before turning attention to the R NineT and Royal Enfield 650 platforms.
Le Motographe has just released a line of machined aluminum and molded plastic parts for the Royal Enfield Interceptor and Continental GT, produced to the very highest standards for which the workshop known. Below, Jerome give us a few of the details, though the photos from Damien Lorrai tell the story best.
