Honda XRV 750 RF07A Africa Twin 1998

As I approach my 73rd birthday, and having just had a full knee replacement I’ve decided that my

RD07A Africa Twin needs to go, it’s simply too big and heavy for me nowadays.

I bought it a little over 4 years ago, it was a bike I had always yearned for and I needed to “scratch the itch”. Although not mint by any stretch of the imagination it is in excellent condition. All I’ve done in the time I’ve had it his fit new tyres and tubes and a new battery, and ridden probably less than 1000 miles.

The guy I bought it off had stripped it down and had the frame and fairing brackets shot blasted and powder coated. Whilst it was out of the bike the engine was steam cleaned and serviced and checked by a Honda mechanic. Also the wiring harness and all fittings and cables were checked and various mods completed.

The forks are fitted with Intimidator fork valves, it has a taller screen, a facet fuel pump has been fitted and the rectifier was changed to one from the USA.

A new DID chain and rear sprocket were fitted along with a new Honda front sprocket. It had new head bearings, and all the swinging arm and wheel bearings were replaced.

It also has a chain oiler with the oil tank behind the number plate, FatBar handlebars, heated grips, a Corbin seat, crashbars and a centre stand.

As I said earlier I have just fitted new tyres and tubes (less than 500 miles ago) and a new battery. It has passed each MOT with no advisories.

The mileage is 29,700 and it will have a new MOT for the sale.
