The Africa Twin XRV650 & XRV750 thread

one more

Nice conversion:-

Transalp tank so 18lt ish though.. so dont go too far into the woods

Enough for Europe!
Sometimes I'm laughing about guys in Germany with 45 liter fuel tanks riding 1000 km per year

If I should need more fuel I can still put a stock RD04 fuel tank on it. I already have a black one for my Transalp waiting in my garage.

I am saying nothing

I have a 42lt fitted to one RD03+ ( its an RD03 frame with the 04 motor & front forks twin discs and plastics ) and am in the process of 'Marathoning' another to give me 60lt

mind you,

try and find fuel on a Sunday Evening in the Highlands of Scotland


nice bike.. this I saw it on Flea bay.. nice to have some else do the major work then tinker

Raymo

Thanks Raymo, if I plan a trip to Scotland someday I put on the RD04 tank.

And I need one empty box to carry a few bottles of good Scotch whisky back home

only one!!

One box or one bottle??? Interesting choice ...
I bought my SR 41 Suzuki DR 750 Big with it's 29 liters-tank to get from Linz-on-the-Rhine to my friends at Stuttgart without the need of re-fueling - usually on late friday-nights with all the Odenwald-gas-stations shut down ... Problem is, that - up to this moment - I mostly carry around some 15 liters of gas in my (right-hand) tank as the connection between the two halves doesn't work properly ... ... but sometimes it does, that's the mystery!
But still kind regards, Bambi
PS: nice bike you've got!!! How about a shot of the front-view?

Schelbi

I see you had or had an XLV750

nice bike

I just had an excellent weekend , it had a bit of everything

Snow in October??? Am I missing something here?

Cabramurra in the Snowy Mountains, still plenty of snow about

Took her to middle parts of Finland last week.

Yes, I still have it. It's nice nice but not as reliable as the AT or TA.

Here is a pic from the AfricaTwin meeting in Germany 2 weeks ago.

This was the day I won an ebay auction with a black RD04

Last week I shipped my AT from S. Petersburg to NewYork by Ro-Ro ferry. The big journey started but I missed one important thing. Honda have never sold AT in US. I am checking ebay every day but can not find aftermarket sprockets, and brake disks. Some kinds of disks are available but it is nameless product most likely made in chinese village. I prefer to get the parts from well known manufacturer (EBC, Breaking, Lucas, Sunstar, JT, etc) even it have been made in China. Arriving in New York on 19 Oct I will get the bike from the ferry and ride to the West Coast and then via Mexico to South America.
Does anybody have a suggestions where I can buy or order AT parts in States?

One box should be enough für more than 10 bottles I love Scotch and Irish whisky but more is way to expensive

Here is the front view:

Alex,

First, you should take a look at page 664 of this thread.

Then, You could order from David Silver or Wemoto for delivery to a US address, or after you are sure of the part numbers, you can probably order most of what you need in the US at Service Honda. Things like chains you can buy here from most any on-line retail places.

Hope this helps. Have a great ride. Dennis Martin

Hey Hectoe,
unfortunately I can not see you video. When I try to play it I only see a message, that this video is not allowed in Germany because of music from SME.

Maybe old news to some, but what a beaut
