AJP PR5

[Trevor Twobikes]

My AJP PR5 Trail with a field gate. You'll notice that is has a low height seat.



There are three PR5 models the Trail, the Enduro and the Enduro Extreme. The enduros have better suspension units. At 65 years of age I'm not going to do any 'log hopping' and therefore not much point in spending out for the high spec. models that I wouldn't make full use of.

Below shows a comparison of the standard and low seats - I had to buy the low seat in addition to standard height seat that comes with the bike - the difference in height is about 2 1/2 inches. The low seat is much broader and makes for better rider comfort.




I've also had the bike supplied with a smaller rear sprocket to raise the road speed.

On the whole I'm pleased with the bike, it's well engineered and a great deal of thought has gone into the design. I particularly like the cast aluminium frame members and substantial swinging arm, plus the close fitting of components. These things don't just happen, someone has sat down wanting to make a good well designed bike. That said, I've had to move the front brake hose out of my line of sight of the speedo with a zip tie - no big deal and the mirror clamp is cheap more suited to a bicycle.







Will keep you posted how I get on with the bike.

Time for a cup of tea I think.

I also have a PR5 (mine is one of the aircooled ones) and I agree regards the thought that has gone into the design, and also agree about the brake line obscuring the speedo. I don't use mirrors so hadn't really noticed that.

You seem to be struggling with loading pictures. Best way if you are on a pc is to put them in a folder and then just attach (like an email) then insert so it's in the body of your post.

You've cracked it!

While you have the camera out, how about a pic or 2 of the swingarm - it's a work of art imho.
