The Interceptor was King of the streets and not recognized for being a strong contender. It was the fastest PRODUCTION BIKE from 1965 to 1969. Only the Kawasaki Mach Three 500 and the Honda 750 4 were able to dethrone the king. As per Cycle World tests The INTERCEPTOR was quicker than larger bikes of the day and a true contender to be dealt with. Yes other NON production bikes were faster, but those machines were altered after the factory. The Harley Sportster was 900cc at the time and didn’t perform as well as the RE Interceptor.
