rsv's slow?

Hi All

New to the site, i bought an RSVR 04 about 3 months ago, i gotta be honest i was bored with 4's and after previousley owning a duke i had to get back to the world of twins. If im honest i was sold on the aprillia but never did that much research on them (Dumb *** i know) so Battery is ***** on these the last time in ran out the clocks converted to KPH and wiped all the miles of it?? Whats up with that??

Apart from that not really any problems and i love it, been to silverstone and Donnington park in the last 5 weeks for track days and silverstone was ok but a boit of a ***** on the last tight hairpin but donnington the bike loved it and i have to say i am now as one with it, she has accepted me )

Do you guys have any hints and tips to slighlty modify to make better - not really interested in top end so im guessing sprockets etc...

Any feedback you guys can give hints tips etc would be great.

By the way its Silver, no piss taking please lol

-1 front and +2 at the back, perfect for the twisties!(need a 110 link chain)
Jack up the back and lower the front a touch too

Ta cheers for that, playing with the suspension like that does it make it better for the track? or better stability?

better all round matey...but go too far and stability will be comromised.You will have to find out whats right for you, and yer weight, height etc.

CK, the 04 + models run a 106 link as standard and 15/42 will go on to that without changing the chain:thumbup

cheers Badgey, forgot the later models had diff gearing, only really know stuff for my 02

Ps do you runn 16/44 or 15/44 on your 01 track whore? was gonna try 15/44 but me thnks thats too much for the road.

15-42 on a stock chain is a great combination.
