This year's India Bike Week motorcycle festival has concluded but there is surely still a lot that's making headlines, including new motorcycle launches and those that are custom-built. Today's feature comes from TNT Motorcycles who have transformed an Interceptor 650 into a giant bagger.
-
This is perhaps the first bagger-style Interceptor custom job. To be honest, you might find the giant proportions and the oddity of the design a bit uninviting. However, considering that Indians love automobiles that look big and flashy, this might bode well with some.
-
This isn't the most practical design especially with the motorcycle sitting so close to the ground you'll scrape the sides easily if you try to lean it but then practicality isn't the first agenda for custom bike builder. The bright mettalic blue paint has earned it its name 'Neelkantha' – rather fittingly.
-
Neelkantha doesn't look very road legal. See how it misses out on indicators, mirrors, and most importantly – brakes upfront. The engine is the same 648cc parallel twin which makes 48 hp and 52 Nm.
-
Baggers are rather rare in India with high-end premium ones like Harley-Davidson Road Glide, Honda Gold Wing sitting on the very expensive end of the spectrum. So, if you somehow happen to be a bagger fan and if you do like what you see here, your Royal Enfield can be transformed into one.
