Right come on let's start the list then
Just swapped my clutch lever out last night, managed to get the securing grub screw out of the adjustment plunger, and then blue loctited it back in the new lever.I did this on the bench and positioned the adjuster the same as before in the indentation notch in the thread. I went for a spin and...
Hi there, I know there is one somewhere a how to to change the front sprocket as I did it myself last time but I can't find it! Could someone please give me some directions, I have tried a search?! Also this isn't for my mille its for my RC8 but surely there's not much difference?

Hi, I bought a RSVmille and it now appears the seller decided to withold the issue of a failing sprag clutch, oh well.
What I would like to do is have someone assist me (more like show me) in the changing of the sprag clutch. I am willing to pay someone, but we would need to discuss this. I am...
Hi
I need to do a bit of a home service on the old **** before I head off to Austria next month. Only doing an oil change and general check of pads etc. Not done an oil change on the RSV before, and talking to a useless dealer on Saturday, I found that there are 2 sizes of oil filter.
As...
I bought an 05 RSV with amnesiac clocks so bought some 07 ones recently....
Is it pretty simple to change over? Can I just unplug and then replug in?
I also have a Datatool alarm is the change going to **** that up too???

Hi there, just wondering if any of you has tackled a front (Showa) fork oil change on a Gen 1 Tuono ? Mine's a 2003 model.
I'm a fairly competent home mechanic but any advice would be appreciated, such as any special tools required, etc ?
Thanks and regards,

Hi, looking at changing the oil and filter this wend or next. Take it its a straight forward process? I understand it is a internal filter is it. Whats the minimum amount of bodywork you have to remove.
Thanks Rad
Hi All,
I'm finding my 09 rsvr has developed a need for two foot movements, changing from 5th to 6th, it's like a false neutral but not quite going in smoothly. Anybody find the same issue with their bike? this only really happens when under a bit of power.
Thanks in advance.
Do most people on this forum change there oil every year? , i have only done 1000 miles since i changed mine 12 months ago. should i change it or not , i am a tight **** and dont want to throw away good oil if i dont have to.
i really need to do this over the winter as i've neglected it on past services and it should be done every 4,500m.
I can't find the exact Ohlins service manual for the RSVR as the one i have refers to Suzuki Ohlins forks.
I bought the Ohlins fork cap tool, some plastic measuring jugs and read...
Dont hate me... I fancy changing my mille into a tuono. Does anyone know if its a case of pure cosmetics? top yoke, bars and fairing... Or is it a task filled with loads of lovely aprilia pain in the *** goodness? :dunno
how do you guys drain the coolant? theses no low level pip on the rad so i disconnected the pipe that i think goes to the water pump< should this get all the coolant and water out of the system?
Hello am after a gear lever (well really just the screw that hold it onto the selector shaft) as have been a bit over zealous tightening it back on - Doh!:jack

After good read on this sight last night I thought I would spend the arvo in the shed. Changed the front sprocket to a 16 tooth (17 teeth was standard fit here in Oz). Took it for a lap of the block and it is sweet, more punch in one ,two and three . Power wheelies in one and two so happy with...
