Super review as always! I'll do my best to give some more input as I own a 2010 Husqvarna TE 630, which is the bike this engine was originally made for. Overall, it's quite reliable and it doesn't burn any oil, which is a plus for such a big single cylinder. Performance is good, definitely racier than a Yamaha 660 but not as powerful as a KTM 690. I'm glad they sorted out the fuel map at low rpm because I think it's the biggest flaw on my bike. Ok here are some negative/annoying things to keep in mind: - to access and clean one of the oil filters (metal screen type) you have to take apart the whole left crankcase cover - cam chain should be replaced every 20 000 km and it will make your bike sound like an helicopter if you don't - the auto decompressor (exhaust valve lifter, looks like a little cam) is worth replacing along with the cam chain. Mine rattles a bit but still works fine - the gear lever adjustment bolt is hard to access on mine, not sure if it's an issue on the AJP given the different frame - on the Magura hydraulic clutch slave cylinder (left side, under the bleeding valve) there's an O-ring that is prone to fail. I lost my clutch fluid into the engine oil because of that. Also, the O-ring itself is not sold as a standalone replacement part but it's the same as the oil filter cover which you can order. Now, SWM is owned by Shineray (big Chinese motorcycle manufacturer) and while production is still in Italy, many parts like engine basement and clutch are made in China. Not sure if it's a bad thing given that Italian Husqvarna wasn't known for its quality control, but it definitely shows that they are producing at a low price point. Either way, this AJP is cool.

Thanks for the comment (as usual! :D) Well, I don't like the idea of having 2 bikes... hence the trajedy "of needing the perfect one". The PR7 is indeed great, but it can't take a passenger, and thats too limiting for someone with only 1 bike. Also, it is still easy in Portugal to modify bikes (to a degree), so for us it is still too easy to modify a DR650, a KTM690, or Husq 701 for me to say that the PR7 is my best and only choice. Nevertheless, I think I found my niche... definitely these "big thumpers" are my thing... I would DEFINITELY prefer a twin cylinder bike, but I have lost hope about them making a light-weight one (

That was a pretty awesome honest review! Congrats! You don't really need a big bike to have fun offroad.

@@OFFroadOFFcourse There's a long list, I disassembled the bike in my workshop and reassembled everything correctly, but now it's really cool.

great review. As Oscar pointed out, the motor is essentially an old Husky motor. The service intervals are what they are, although I'd love longer intervals for sure. I think AJP has a winner at the price point, and I think they've done a great job putting a lot of high quality components together, even if the fit and finish isn't 100% perfect. They're a super small (family owned) company, and i'd rather give them my money than any big manufacturer. I bought a Rieju this year for the same reason, and both are hard to find in the US. The PR7 is actually on my wish list, just waiting for the world economy (and shipping) to sort itself out. You can't find a new PR7 in the US. (and, it's not street legal as sold from the distributor in the US, although you could register it for the streets in some States, just not all. If it were street legal from the showroom, in the US, i think they'd sell a bunch. Government regulations, $$$, in the US make this problematic).

Funny how they're street legal in Europe but not in the US. Normally it's us who don't get all the bikes 😄

It was a sad day when I sold my adventure Suzuki DR650. I loved that bike so much. It was light and easy/fun to ride. Servicing was super-simple. I did a 4000 mile trip from the US to Mexico and all I needed was an oil-change and filter cleaning in the middle. Loved that bike. I think I'm getting a bike again next year. I'll be getting a Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 for my daily rider and then, an adventure bike. I thought the Yamaha Tenere 700 would be it. While I love the DR650, it's 1996 technology and it cost thousands to get it up to spec. I desperately want a suspension improvement that's not a gross expense. Now, I see the AJP PR7. Wow! 10lbs - 20lbs lighter than the DR650. With regular exhaust, 13HP more. Decent electronics. Great brakes and suspension. And the 'race-version' (with the DOMA exhaust and no turn signals) is only $100 more than the Tenere. There looks to be more 'empty' space around the motor making cleaning and maintenance easier. The big question: is the Adventure model available in the U.S? According to AJP America, it is. But they are using images of their race-version on the website and calling it 'Adventure'. So I hope so. They just don't have marketing pictures yet. So by the time I'm ready in late 2022, they will have their act together and the dealer network will be better. The closest one is 2.5 hours away driving. It took a year or so for Royal Enfield to build their network in New York State and New York City. Now, I can walk two miles down the street to a dealer in Brooklyn. They still need some work for their network but it's pretty good. This may be the bike I have been waiting for!

You won't believe this... but I have never ever heard of any "race/adventure" version. Maybe it is a thing only for the US market? Maybe just gossip?

I found the Doma exhaust a bit too loud for my taste (I like quite bikes), so maybe the "stock" one isn't that bad :) It will feel much better than the DR I am sure (and I also love the DR, believe me :D)

A capa de vídeo mais enigmática de sempre 🤣🤣

never heard of this but seems great. The biggest flaw is maybe to trust an unknown brand with unknown support and part supply. Throughout great and honest review thanks !

Hi, i just got mine a week ago and the AJP guys are great, you send an email to them(to the factory engineers) and they reply to you within 24h. It's awesome this kind of relation to the costumer.

That bike looks amaaaazing! What does it sell for in Europe? €€€ Love the accessibility of everything for maintenance! So much space everywhere.. great video as always. I see your subs are growing nicely!

Good question! I think the price is somewhere around 11k €, but it really depends. Check out this map and contact a local dealer for more info :D ajpmotos.com/pages/store-locator

Nice...not like we'll see any here in the states. I called a couple dealers and they (not surprisingly) just laughed. :) Looks like I'm headed to Portugal and renting a slot in a container. I like to think of these bikes as proper Adventure Dual Sports...big enough to enjoy the journey...small enough to rip up destination. Thanks again for the great content.

Thanks, I did...used it to start calling shops. I suspect getting our hands on one of these would be hard enough in a normal year. Considering the moto inventory challenge due to COVID, the next couple years will be extra dry. We will probably ride Switzerland this fall so I might deviate to Portugal for a test ride...what's a 2800 mile detour when there are bikes like this to test. :)

Really enjoyed your review mate looks like a top build maybe a compatible parts list guide would be handy I like everything on this bike I'm thinking now for any bike sold particularly in Australia they have to have ABS to meet our design regulations short of that if it were available in Australia then I would seriously consider purchasing one for Adventure riding it looks like it's very suitable for our conditions here on the East Coast of Australia thanks for your time and fantastic review much appreciated.

Well, i am pretty sure you can buy them in Australia. The online community i most talked to was the "PR7 Australia" group :D I think they can get away without ABS because the bike is classified as an Enduro bike (hence, only 1 rider aboard, not 2)

Congratulations on a really enjoyable video. Excellent work. The PR7 is too heavy for me, I await the PR6? Maybe SWM will beat AJP to it, with a version of the RS300? Not going to rule out Suzuki blowing everyone away with a DRZ400 derivative.

@@OFFroadOFFcourse Call me old fashioned, but I wouldn't have commented unless I had first hand experience! I will admit I have little experience of taking a 200kg bike off-road, I don't actually need to try it to know it's a bad idea. I ride my VFR800 (and other unsuitable bikes) around my back garden, have/do perform lurid power slides on gravel just for fun, so I know what to expect. At the other end of the scale I have bikes in the 90kg, 110kg, 130kg and 160kg ranges, and because I don't want to feel inhibited by the bike I ride, I wouldn't consider going into the unknown on anything that is significantly in excess of 130kg. I have seen fairly decent and fit riders struggling for traction, and patience, on 450 enduro bikes in the 110-120kg range so I know where the limit ( for me) lies. I could live with a PR7, but on an adventure, I know I would have to ride around the limitations of its all up weight.

Another great video of yours! Your channel is different, you are not so serious, which is awesome, you do speak about specs, but rather sneak it than list all, which is enjoyable, you keep the distance to yourself and to what you say. Please keep it up this way! I wonder if less experienced and shorter riders would like the bike too. I suppose one should try. If my calculations are right, the fuel consumption is just below 5l/100k?

@OFFroadOFFcourse

3 жыл бұрын

Glad you like them! I will have your observations in consideration for future videos :D Actually, the bike is supposed to use somewhere around 4L/100. Quite efficient. I felt the bike really easy to ride, its not like a 450cc enduro, where everything is pure brutality. No, the AJP is docile, the suspensions are not tunned for motocross jumps so they are kinda soft, and the weight is low and well balanced... I think that only the seat high would be a problem for shorter and inexperienced riders. Other than than, the bike will help you ;)

Awesome review! It does seem like an almost perfect bike for my type of riding (almost all offroad, gnarly, rocky, and muddy). The massive screen seems very cool, but I'm curious if it may block a bit of forward view? I'm thinking of some of the tighter single track rocky trails that I ride where you need to pick and adjust your line often. How are the vibrations in the bars and pegs? I'd love to see more content on this bike!

@OFFroadOFFcourse

Thank you! Well. navigations towers in general are always a bit of a nuisance in single tracks and the situations your described, but the tablet itself doesn't make it worse. Have you ever ridden any bike with a nav tower? I felt the vibrations quite acceptable. In the end it is still a single-cylinder bike, but it feels modern and polished. The engine feels happy up to 130km/h, and that means that it vibrates but no in an exaggerated or uncomfortable manner (but it all depends on your criteria and what you are used to)

As someone who rides a paint-shaker (KTM 640 Adventure) I can say that the severity of vibration depends on how you're riding. Droning along on the highway for hours on end, the paint-shaker will leave my hands buzzing and my feet numb. But I don't notice the vibrations when I'm riding single-track in the woods, usually at low but varying rpm and changing seating position a lot. I've also added a screen to the 640 to make highway miles more pleasant -- riding with my helmet in still air reduces wind noise considerably, and keeps rain and bugs off my helmet visor. I found that I need a screen that comes up to just below eye level to keep my helmet out of the wind, and I need it to be adjustable enough that I can drop it a couple of inches when I'm riding into the sun, to allow for the fact that I'll need to tilt my head down so that my helmet peak blocks the sun. The screen does block my view of the road or trail if I don't drop it down a few inches. However, standing solves that problem, so I don't always bother to lower the screen when I roll off the pavement and onto dirt.

Nice Review well done thank you the bike are actually 80 kg lighter than my Africa Twin 2019 DCT and that is a lot ,my earlier Yamaha XT660ZA Ténéré was 200 kg wet 40 kg heavier 😉

Hello Diogo ! Thinking of getting the PR7 to replace the 690 (for a change). I was obviously happy to see you made a video on it 😉 What do you think ? Pros and cons compared to the ktm 690 ?
