1988 XRV 650 J-Type (RD03) RD 03-1000057

[Kjell Lindberg]

The headlight protection was not standard equipment, at least not in Europe.
There were only two options for the RD03, the head light protection and the centre stand.

The headlight protection can not be bought from Honda today, but the centre stand still can, allthough the stand for the RD04 is cheaper and will also fit the RD04.

My RD03 had the head light protection, and I must say that the "grille" took away some of the already weak light, but then if you can find one, it really suits the look of the RD03 well.

I must say, that I wish I had not sold my RD03 now, seeing all the nice parts that you guys are producing for the RD03.

I would have ordered the rear aux tanks and the tank protectors directly, and transformed my bike into a homage to the mighty Marathon model.

Hi Kjell,

I do have the centerstand, but not the headlight grill. My lights are 2 H4 so there is no problem with not having enough light.

Only thing is where I can find the bloody grille, to copy it and make it from steel...! I guess many AT owners would love to have them in something better than plastic...!

Regards
