Ahh guys and gals like too pick your brains on everything Aprilia , I have an Aprilia rsv 1000 , 2003 Gen 1 , do they ever lose performance ie : top speed , mine pulls like a train but now doesnt seem too max out like it use too , valve clearances do this ? .
I use too find on 15 too 44 it would pull 160mph easily now it wont ?
Cheers Eddie

Further update pulled the plugs out all perfect chocolate colour , did a compression test ( hot ) front cylinder 145 psi , rear cylinder only 70 psi ??
 
Think the guys on af1 have answered your question...but either way the that rear head is coming off


Silly question when you checked the rear compression was the other plug fully tights as some people have had plugs come loose although you'd hear it letting by anyway
