A one‑off Royal Enfield 650 Interceptor like no other. In 2018, Royal Enfield commissioned Old Empire Motorcycles to re‑imagine the very first production Interceptor 650. The result was a masterclass in custom motorcycle building.
Clean, uninterrupted lines define the silhouette of the Interceptor: keyless ignition, bar‑mounted controls deleted, the front brake re‑engineered into a dual foot‑operated system, with a bespoke twist‑grip internalised clutch that keeps the cockpit beautifully bare.
Deep oxblood leather and suede wrap the seat, contrasted by the darkest ruby paintwork, gold accents and stainless detailing. A modern café‑racer attitude with OEM‑level refinement, this build captures the moment Royal Enfield’s new twin platform stepped confidently into the global custom scene.
