    It goes to show that it does not matter where in the world you live the Africa Twin gets you elsewhere with ease.
    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE

    Re: Russian Africa Twin

    Sorry, my Russian aint brilliant but ....






    avtors′kij site Krin Valeri
















    Hi guys. You probably heard that-motorcycles are the same as the pilots that is thoroughly. So I decided to share with you the experience of the motorcycle to such travel.


    Source material from us Honda XRV 750 Africa Twin RD-07 1998 g.w. motorcycle Mileage is 90 thousand kilometers. Imagine that the construction of the motorcycle starts at the beginning. With the frame. Miss the point showdown motorcycle, laundering of mud all its parts. We start from scratch with a blank slate and gradually each week you'll see that revives my Afrička as it acquires that kind, which will be ready for adventures. Ready-made motor cycle you will be able to see the motor show in March in 2010. Prepare the motorcycle will be at my Moto Redline personally and involving the best mechanics, and generally cool guy gonsčega Kucaka Sergey aka akKuStik.


    So let's start:




    Source material









    Here's how Africa Twin nude


    NEW LIFE






    Rama was painted by a powder paint because of rust and pitting of the occurrences of the local area.





    The engine was otmyt against dirt. Check and adjust valve replaced the candles. Everything on nothing else did. Works well, has decided not to climb inside. Best Japanese I gather it, and the urgent need for motor lazit′. Will then check krugosvetku. In Africa is known for reliability of its motor. Diagram of a simple 2 valves on inlet, one on the issue. Adjust their going koromyslami. Simplicity and reliability. Words are synonyms.








    Rear brake Lever. Only Honda might think put on both sides of the glands on sleeve which is axis feet. Inside we drape lubrication and thousands of 50 it is here to stay, and will do their job.





    Prikručiva rear compartment where there will be the BATTERY Yuasa.





    Grease your iPhone to tether smazyva cable lock seating.





    Rear brake master cylinder Prikručiva contour.





    Prokladyva wiring. The hardest job lead all because it was from the factory. Try. Breaking photographed all precautionary pacančik





    Expansion tank, posting too slowly finds its place. Sly.





    Over the engine Capel. Weight approximately 45 kilograms. Zakleil frame adhesive tape to avoid scratching. For a long time did not want stavat′. Don't go and everything. Video is not that clear when dismantling. Not far-seeing pacančik: (within an hour of reflection has determined that you need to make the front cylinder with a slight slope, then deploy and slightly poddat′ back. All on the spot!





    All bolts in place Prikručiva, but two quite superfluous. Well where do without this later and they will find their place of residence. I hope so. Very





    Coil ignition prikručivaets easily and I would even say a lot of fun. And here is the second made me angry. Ripping the head bolt which it lives. Prirevnoval, like not much zakručival. You can see the bolt caught. Will be making. Nothing winter long





    Thermostat. Buck.





    Install and spirals to a cooling clamps.





    All the contacts I handle special finish cut kindly provided by your iPhone. My butter partner.





    Radiators I battle. Reinforced that withstand crashes and injuries. You can see how the left edge of the radiator vognut, nor does he lost his integrity. The same right-wing





    The tail is. Povorotniki and stop I leave home. I agree in their work. Povorotniki have rubber feet can be lengthened by 90 degrees. And big. Therefore well pronounced their work to other participants of the movement. Including cattle, which every year becomes more attentive to two-wheeled: romantics on the road. The same goes for front direction.





    Again check valve clearances. Intake 0.15 0.02, no. 0.20 0.02. Tightly curled cover flaps. She sits on the silicone or sealant. How many do I have seen. There's a sealing gum, so here it is desirable to replace more upto-date if your just a wooden. Here's a fact and an indication how often to overheat motor. When the temperature is high, sealing rubber engine gasket becomes. If you go through and it still has elasticity, it can be said that the engine does not overheat and can be reused.





    Installed the protective netting on the radiator and radiator oil plastic protection.





    Dashboard cleaned from dust and glass speedometer will be sealed because skips moisture.





    wheels I dismounted. The spokes in a white Church en′ke on chrome Undercoater and disks I lined and polished. Ask: why the Enduro polished wheels? After all, its element **** and stones ... And I so wanted. There is a will, skill and a bit of time





    Here's what happened. The work took approximately 50 Trudeau/hours. Polished manually nadačnymi is: 150,280,320,,600,800 1000,1500 and stuffed pasta with terms like GOI but only white, especially for aluminium. It was difficult.


    Then I decided to make a small change in design skotojlera. I don't like its capacity. Too little, every 1000km. be it oil, zapricovyvat′ instead sit near primusa, read book and cook soup with paying with tinned meat here is what happened with):





    the operation. Bank flat, SOAP. From all that I reviewed is the most convenient sample.





    Has cut more accurately cut neck





    with a diameter of 32 mm aroki aren't so sandpaper and forward. Try to make the hole evenly over all the walls.





    be dyrdočku. There are a small cut-out for fixing lids-control oil.

    Re: Russian Africa Twin

    Have problemku. Length of rod, who is concurrently and vacuum-operated grease feeding 114 mm. The depth of our capacity approx. 85 mm. Experts, the question is: where do I get no dostaŝie millimeters? Answer below:





    Take a hairdryer and help our customers to the bottom of the tank. Because the plastic give inside a pair of atmospheres and fozduha polučem missing 29 mm. Everything is simple





    Everything. Collect new skotojler zapravlem oil into it, and at least 6 000 not to think about charging.


    The idea is to maintain a chain of cardan shaft))


    Next is a problem occurs while driving in hot weather is cool RRN (relay voltage). To correct this off against there are several ways:


    1. Connect an additional plate-radiator, heat will be faster.


    2. Connect the CPU cooler from the computer.


    Oh and a third way, which I decided to try is a side-Plastik vpat′ reticle in order to reduce the ingress of air. What to do and how to do the following:





    drew a big place. Not-on stickers kurgloe left, oblong to bend.





    using soldering vypal piece which I stand





    is the bullet hole. Not krasva but still to come.





    filed in support





    fly road Dynamics deepsteam





    take the bevel with a sharp noika.





    get here such enhanced detail.


    Today I changed a few wires wiring that the mounting lamp pereterlis′ and dashboard due to repeated drops. At the same time replaced kmbriki and izolentu.





    again, processed water repellent cut all contacts.





    frame mounting lamp dashboard and whole mordočki reinforced by additional spacers, painted by a powder paint and set in place.





    On-board computer so call this device. Loud name. It's just three tripmetra (daily mileage) and clock





    the headlamp type. Xenon, I won't. Reflectors and lenses are designed for normal galogennu light bulb. Therefore, the benefits of Xenon little, only vypendre and blinding oncoming. I'd rather put the lowest at ARC extra lights fog-light.





    See svetorasseivatel′ here on the lens. And he should be on Xenon otraatele.





    These are the first that I wrote in article. Dad accidentally they found someone in the village. Two pieces. New!!!! now I am old ready to gift, they are still very much even anything, I'll set pokrau powder coating and on the arc, instead of the old.





    cool see GOST 72 per year. Stayed with the homes in paper impregnated with solid oil .


    and here is another one of my assistant. It helps the home computer








    but more often it just sačkuet


    Today I took some fasteners with chromium electroplating, chromium anodizing, to be precise, these are:


    Thank you Wife of Bila Tserkva, thanks to him! And yet it poanodiroval spokes and collects the wheels which I took after polishing disks and install the new hub bearings. A very smart guy.





    fork was disassembled and rinsed with





    scheme is simple, unfortunately no adjustment, but I have some defined your driving style and identified oil that is best suited. For me it is a Fork fluid 7 Ipone, I've got it covered and has proven to be the best hand. Over 30 thousand I merged not ChaCha black and oil, which had done a little bit. The fork worked perfectly, for hints.





    fixed bushings








    Here is a special tool made by cutting "ethnic" aluminium tube, all bushes and gaskets is very pleased to become the Chair. All the work was carried out strictly according to the service manual, which can be downloaded from the site Honda Africa Twin XRV 650-750 section "Download" button.





    out bearings, gland and poanodiroval gaečki is not for beauty in order to avoid corrosion.





    fixed chassis air filter





    HA! priborka, almost like new, already with leak-proof glass speedometer





    water cut performed special connectors








    all bearings and dust were replaced by new ones and parts painted plastic paint. Do as for myself, and grandchildren have)))))


    continued saga here
