    Smile New 'foreign' member

    Hello Guys!

    I´m from Brazil (and sorry about my english) ... so, after 10 years looking for a XRV RD07 finally I found it !!! it is a 1995 XRV equal to 0 km, was item collection of a person, only 19,7k km... and now...it sits in my garage!

    If you don´t know, this model is very very rare on Brazil. 94/95 it is estimated that only 18 were imported (Honda didn´t bring) ! Therefore this bike is very expensive around here...

    My last bike was a 94 Cagiva Elefant 900... I loved it...

    Well, know, I´m looking for parts and acessories... can anyone help me ?

    I would like a Engine Bars, one largest windshield, one centre stand and one more robust holder (I dont know how to say in english - the piece that is placed on the back and we put the case, like Givi) ...

    If you know any store that exports please let me know

    Thank you very much!!

    Hi Osvalter and welcome!
    I use Ricky Cross engine bars and there's some folk on here that are the UK distributors for some gear plus they manufacture some too - they'll doubtless be along to say hello.

    Your English is at least as good as mine and waaaay better than my Portuguese, so you;ll be fine here

    And you'll need to get some pictures of your bike on here too
    RD07a, reg in 2001, Black, heated grips, short screen, Scottoiler, Givi top box and panniers, DataTag, full Riky Cross crash bars, Baglux tank cover, Facet pump, mostly 200 miles to reserve and presently a lot happier since being loved up at Chad's hospital for sick ATs!


    !Boris!

    Hello Nick

    Welcome to the forum and congratulations on finding an Africa Twin in Brazil.

    You may find suppliers that are nearer, but there is one reliable supplier here in the UK which is popular with AT owners, and I believe they will ship to Brazil.

    Check out Wemoto HERE


    Enjoy the bike

    Olá Osvaldo, parabéns pela moto. Poderia postar umas fotos? E que tal dar também uma olhada no fórum da Africa Twin de Portugal?

    Steve C,
    Where did you buy the Rick Cross products ?

    BobA,
    Your avatar is the best! Nice! obs.: my nick name is "TW"

    Olá PerfecStranger !,
    Então, eu não consigo carregar fotos no Forum ainda, acho que sou muito 'novato' para isso... vou checar...
    Me passe o link do clube AT de Portugal, por favor... Eu conheço o Azevedo do Nomad´s de Portugal, ele já esteve no Brazil

    Macanamayor, Hola amigo !
    es mi primer contacto con un argentino.
    Yo digo que es un gran placer!
    Sueño con llegar a la Patagonia, si es posible en Africa Twin!
    al llegar a Brasil, tendrá todo el apoyo en Sao Paulo, asegúrese!
    Sólo necesito aprender a hablar catelhano ! hehe...

    THANKS!!!!!

    Hi Osvalter,

    welcome and congratulations. You may want to check out Touratech AG. TT is not cheap, but a very reliable bunch with excellent quality and they certainly ship worldwide, as they ship spare parts to travellers as well. To look around what else is out there, check SW-MOTECH engineering for motorbikes (based in Germany as well, but they might as well ship to your end of the world).

    Best regards
    Chris
