hello I own a T7 and a PR7. The pr7 is without a doubt an offroad machine, I use it whenever I don't do many kilometers on the road. I use the T7 when I have to cover many kilometers on the road, but as soon as I get on the trails I miss the pr7. Two good machines.

I’ve gone from an xt660 tenere to an AJP PR7 with the power upgrade. I LOVE IT. The PR7 wants to ride off-road. I also do a lot of road miles and just a couple of days ago I followed my old XT660 for over 100 miles and I was very glad to be on the PR7. Never noticed a major issue with a lack of braking power

Good, enjoy it!

Never having had a bike with ABS, and I currently run a 1988 Honda Transalp, this looks like a perfect bike for me. Love the simplicity and lack of electronic dependency. If I was in the market for a new bike I would certainly check it out.

[@motorcycleadventures]

Good!

[@C_R_O_M________]

What would immensely help this brand keep existing imho, would be to include a complete service manual with the bike so as to give the opportunity to remote mechanics to learn to service and fix them (if the owner is not willing to). I knew about this bike for a few years now but some details in this clip were useful. Thanks. P.S. Companies are living organisms and can be very resilient even in very adverse economic environments, that is if the management is capable, hedging their position and in general being prudent. The biggest problem for small businesses right now is the lack of governments that are small enterprise-friendly, that is becoming increasingly scarce (at least in Europe). I hope they keep existing and establish their position in this very specialized niche.

There is a rtw traveller on an AJP PR7 , with a KZbin channel : Long Ride Zone. He rode his PR7 for 34.000km in Europe 1st year. He has a video about reliability. There is another Dutch traveller on a PR7, making vids on YT , with more on reliability. On my side I tested a PR7 and a 701 : I chose the 701 early 2021, because about same price but offering more performance, and a dealer close to my home. I didn't feel good on the PR7, pegs very high, more vibrations than the 701 . 8.000km over 1st year, Alps, Pyrénées, TET, no issue on my 701.

[@teneretraveller8980]

A lot of great qualities for a travel bike. Especially the weight, for me at 73kg in the shower. For just me maybe great but for my limited off road with my good lady on the back not ideal. That doesn't mean I don't appreciate it for what it is. Perhaps too extreme, but I bet if Honda made a crf650 it would sell like hot cakes, ir maybe a crf500x.. Very interesting though.

Great review Pavlin. 👍👍👍👍 The AJP was very high on my wish list but being 61 I don’t think I could really take advantage of the bike, my DR650 still does what I need it to do. When it comes to reliability well the engine has been around a long time, it is basically a Husky 610, the same engine as SWM use in the super dual X and when BMW owned Husqvarna back in the day was used in there dual sport model, so it is not an new engine it is over 20 years old. Parts and dealer networks are a bit of an issue but most parts are used on various motorcycles so things like oil and air filters should be relatively easy to obtain.

Only the future will show us but I really doubt that this model and the brand will keep existing. I like it and I wish the company all the best but the market wants completely different machines. Old school bikes and people like us will be less and less...

The maintenance in the garage did not cost me more, but it is true that not every mechanic knew how to handle this model.

@@BiztoryTime Wrong. There have been a number of people in Australia who have had cracked crank cases at the front of the engine on their AJP. They have had great difficulty getting any warranty claim on these very low Km bikes. If you search the Australian Face Book group of AJP owners you will find the info. No one has been able to determine why these motors crack at the front. China has a terrible record with quality control which is a real problem for any bike using an engine from China. The fact that AJP has been seen to fail to care about after sales support for these problem engines in Australia is a big detraction from AJP. For this reason I have decided to stay away from the AJP bike. China will continue to improve and will get their quality control up to spec in time.

Your new youtube studio woooo yaaa!!!✨❤🎈🍺🍺Pavlin Excellent Review! The question you ask from the heart? This is very problematic. I was 100% sure that my next motorcycle would be without plastic covers, full naked, because at my Honda Innova every small repair starts with the plastic removal ceremony (a quarter of an hour), and then put them back in place (another 15 minutes), and sometimes more plastics have to be removed and it takes for an hour (just to put off & on the plastic). Then I bought a CBR250R (2013) ...🤦‍♂😂

[@motorcycleadventures]

Thanks for taking the time!

[@maskedavenger2578]

One of my motorcycles here in the U.K. is a 2004 carb version Honda Innova 125 . It is in almost mint condition ,runs as sweet as a nut & 100% reliable . The only pain is as you claim ,the amount of time & plastic you have to remove to service the bike . The older Honda cub type bikes had easy to remove leg shield . I think the manufacturers are deliberately attempting to put owners off home servicing & to make extra servicing & repair business for their franchise dealers . For me the less tech on a motorcycle the better ,every motorcycle has ABS ,traction control & riding modes ,it’s called the rider .

[@MyINNOVAMotorcycling]

@@maskedavenger2578 The problem is not with technology. The opposite, the technology of injection is excellent. One of the most notable advantages is the existence of a closed fuel system with almost zero evaporability of fuel, and therefore zero stench of fuel in the garage. The problem is with the knowledge, and hiding the knowledge for self-care in these super simple systems. Nothing is simple when manufacturers hide information, and when manufacturers pour your computer(ECU) into a black box without publishing what it is set to do with each sensor, and without providing a convenient connector, hardware and software, for controlling the parameters. So you are absolutely right probably also on the subject of plastics covers of Honda-Innova, the manufacturer is building a product that will guarantee him a livelihood in maintenance time work. I spared myself the study of the ABS subject, Because I do not have one in either My-Innova or on My-CBR250R(2013) that I bought in addition about a year ago. I before completing a "doctorate" in studying the FI system, and I say FI is a super simple system, also very reliable. But how good is to leave the customers dumb for to charge them an expensive repairs, right? And this is how it is conducted, no knowledge is published, in order to extort money from customers. I'm not complaining, just describing a situation.

[@maskedavenger2578]

@@MyINNOVAMotorcycling With injection you have more to go wrong ,they rely on more electronics ,sensors & more fussy about battery condition . A carb fed system is much simpler ,usually fuelled by gravity & more likely to be able to adjust or repair on tour or at side of the road . I myself am not bothered about the stench of fuel in garage ,as long as the fuel isn’t leaking . A proper garage is supposed to smell of petrol ,oil & grease . I am well capable of servicing any motorcycle or car as long as I have the parts ,& the valve & other settings ,the main problem lies with ,the amount & time it takes to remove plastics & the likes of the EU with all their unnecessary Euro vehicle directives . This has led to stupid excess like a catalytic converters ,PAIR systems & all manner of extra electrics & plumbing to get in the way & cause us more hassle & expense .Give me an carburettor fed leaded fuelled motorcycle ,over a tech ,ethanol ,unleaded laden one any day . I can still recall the days before the EU when it was a pleasure to get a whiff of good old leaded juice ,when out riding motorcycles .

[@MyINNOVAMotorcycling]

@@maskedavenger2578 I totally understand what you're talking about. But after I made a deep acquaintance with FI systems I do not return voluntarily to the carburetor. And here's another advantage for smart FI systems: In height changes there is no need to mess with nozzles to change the mixture. But of course when you do not know and refrain from learning the new systems (which are already quite a veteran in the market), and the manufacturers contribute to the difficulty by hiding knowledge, then it is clear that the difficulty you describe is real.

[@motorcycleadventures]

Fair enough!

[@TheGlatch]

What do you mean losing? How would you lose such a bike?

[@SamiNami]

@@TheGlatch if the engine blows up there is not much you can do, and this is using an Italian engine...

@@SamiNami the motor is all Open and some parts changed in Portuguese factory. First AJP P4 (400 CC) prototype as made is road teste. Do you know where. Probably in some portuguese farm? In some factory circuit? No... From Portuguese factory, to cross Alentejo (south Portugal), Spanish Estremadura, Andaluzia, Gibraltar, Marrocos until arriving in Trípoli ( Libia) where it was supposed to be sent by ship to Leça (back to Portugal). But the test driver (also an Eng. @ AJP) was not happy. So he made all the inverse route instead... How can you lose money when a company makes prototype tests like This:-):-):-):-)

[@SamiNami]

@@subscricoesmotard7288 It's nothing like what the big Japanese firms do, before they release a bike. Also if something brakes its possible to get a spare part, not easy with AJP.

this machine reminds me of my good old DR650RS with more horse power, useful electronics and top suspension. Is it for sale for only 10-11 K euros? Sounds like a bargain compared to a KTM...🤐

[@motorcycleadventures]

This bike is definitely not for every one!

🇵🇹 portuguease stuff 😉

[@grantembleton3724]

Great bike bad after sales service from aJp factory

[@motorcycleadventures]

Good to know!

[@1teem]

Your a*s will be on fire if the gas pump leaks, because its surrounded by electrical wires and 🤣, but looks like a fun bike 👌.

[@motorcycleadventures]

It is definitely fun bike.

[@ricardolourenco2814]

[@motorcycleadventures]

Fair enough!
