ohh, and i would like to present my friends madmax AT. he worked a lot on it. it was a nonfunctionable bike and now it is built from 4 crshed at's. i helped him with this and that

I can't tell whether it's because of the pannier rack I installed (thus moving my muffler a little higher) or the carb cleaner I was running through the tank (does anyone know if that would cause higher temp exhaust?), but I definitely melted the living **** out of an indicator on my RD03.

In true Honda style, the indicator was still working.

It's also running a bit rich, I've adjusted the pilot screws to 2 and 1/8 turn, but I'm still getting a bit of black smoke when I get on the throttle, any ideas?

My freaking side stand gave up! Just as I parked outside the bank doing some chores today, I took it out and proceeded to descending only to realize that the bike didn't stop where it should but kept on going until crashing on the ground... :huh

I managed to stay out of its way and when I picked her back up, I noticed the side-stand was facing towards the front (90 degrees clockwise further from where it should be..

It has failed at the top, right below the bolt.

Would you recommend getting a used one or welding the trashed one?

I admit that I didn't treat the side stand very gently but I believe it's kind of rare to get that, especially on a 2000 model...

Dirty or clogged air filter...main jet too large of has come loose...float level too high? Choke plungers stuck? I suppose too much carb cleaner in the tank could cause a higher exhaust temp and smoke. Maybe time for mini indicators.

I would buy a new one.

Air filter is super dirty. Waiting on the new one to arrive. I'm thinking that is my problem. I'll find out in a couple of days. I hate the mini indicators, I'm considering modifying the pannier rack.

I finally tore up the last of the stock fender and need to put on a high fender. What recommendations can you guys offer? Cheers

If you can avoid that Arizona red clay/mud...well... you'll be just fine.



I personally like the OEM AT front fender setup...but if your looking for change i would suggest African Queens website for some ideas.

Amazing creaturas one more time !!!!
Bravo !

out of curiosity where have you re-located the oil cooler ?

acerbis supermoto

Yeah that would be ideal, but for now I will have to go for a less costly solution. I found a used one for 25 euros, which is acceptable even as a temporary solution (I can't use the bike right now, too risky).

The question is this: Will an RD04 stand fit on an RD07?

The one I found comes from a 95 model, mine is a 2000. It's the whole stand, with the triangular metal and the left peg...

FOR SUSPENCIONS AND TANK FOR AT 650 -750


I DON'T KNOW HAW TO PUT FOTO.......PLEASE!!! TELL THE WAY

95 would be an RD07 and yours an RD07a so that should bolt on without a problem as far as I know. haven't tested it though

I have got Transalp 650 carbs in my AT RD03, but with stock air filter engine run to rich, I've made own intake like this did a short test and it seems to work well.
