1969 Royal Enfield Interceptor
By Bob Lopes

I acquired this series 2 Interceptor several years ago from the David Moot collection, former president of the Viking Chapter of the Antique Motorcycle Club of America. It has gone through a comprehensive restoration and scored an AMCA 99 point winner circles award. The 1969 Interceptor 2 engine featured a new design with 736 cc and a top speed of 105 mph with a list price of $1,495.
Less than 900 series 2 models were built between 1969 and 1970.

The Royal Enfield Interceptor is a rare bird indeed the factory brochure read, “Not everyone can have one. There aren’t enough to go around that is why the owner of the interceptor always has something special. Something the other fellow hasn’t got“.
