Born at the height of the popularity of the Paris-Dakar Rally in 1988, the first production Africa Twin was effectively an ‘off-road RC30’. Like the RC, the XRV650 was built by HRC and conceived as a no-compromise, road-going replica of a race-winner – in this case the factory NXR750 V-twin which, in 1986, won the Dakar first time out and went on to notch four successive victories.
This bike was imported from Belgium by the previous owner in 2019, due to the fact that these hand built HRC bikes were never officially imported into the UK and has since had a light cosmetic restoration including;
Powder coated frame,
new Excel wheel rims with stainless spokes
Bodywork has been recently refreshed to a high standard and looks absolutely stunning
It also benefits from retaining its original exhaust system.
These bikes are becoming incredibly hard to find, especially in as great a condition as this one and are appreciating strongly in value.
