issues

Hi All, Argh, all I ever seem to do is come on here with problems - first let me just say I have just got back from the IOM TT and the bike was absolutely epic and turned heads wherever she went.... Secondly, I replaced the solenoid a few weeks back with an Aprilia Performance one, however I...

Gentlemen, I just bought an early 04 rsvr factory (in love)! but one day, as I was leaving a stop light, the bike died. I pulled over and just barely had power to the gauges. when I hit the starter, nothing.No power anywhere. As I was going over the fuses and such, I heard a click by the...

Recently changed from a RSVR to a RSV4R bike is great but just been having an issue with gear changes. All okay changing up just some issues changing down seems like it is having an issue with a return spring on the gear shift not sure but doesn't do it all the time as I said. Does anyone have...

Guys Help Getting Diagnostic indications in RHS display Start up shows Diag 1 but this changes when riding to various others including Diag 12; Diag 13 etc Bike seems to run OK Will this need an Aprilia Dealer to sort or is there something I could do ? Thanks in advance Pottsy

My '08 Factory has Akrapovic cans on it, marked "Aprilia Racing", which make a lovely noise, but the fuelling is off at lower revs, around 3kish. On a constant throttle its surging and spluttering to the extent I'm using 1st alot around town to get the revs higher. Would switching it to "Map...

Hi guys, I have a Tuono V4 Aprc from 2011 with nearly 11.000 km I started having some issues with the gearbox, in 4th. The bike has been service at an Aprilia dealer (although I think that their knowledge is at the minimum very limited). As per my biking experience I have more than 18...

Hi, Just a quick message as I need your experience. Just bought an Ape 2012 Rsv4 Factory and managed to blag an Akrapovic carbon exhaust can and link pipe with a CAT. I wish to cut down the end can to race size and open/take out all the perf add a new link pipe with a 63mm link onto the...

I've a 2012 RSV4 Factory and have a akrapovic carbon silencer but the link pipe had a CAT so decided to have a new link pipe but this time with 63mm instead of 60mm and I'm opening out the pipe from 54mm to 63mm. If I do this do I need to get the ECU re-mapped. So any mechanics out there please

Hi guys, It's been ages since I posted in the forum, but I do browse regularly. I know that there are numerous threads covering various starting issues, however I am confused as to what is relevant to my specific problem. I have had my T(Gen1 on a 53 plate) on an optimate 3 all...

Hi Guys, It's been one year now since I started using my 04 RSV Fact. During this period I had spend loads of time in the workshop figuring out stuffs on how to fix these things permanently. To save time for others, I decided to write it down here and share with the rest of the world. (Not...

Hi everyone. Just fitted a dan moto race can. Just took it on the motorway and it feels underpowered and jerky like its gona spit me off. could this be because it needs remapping? The exhaust manufacturer says it doesn't need remapping as its set up for the bike. Anyone any ideas? Thanks.

Hi folks...new to the forum and new to aprilia. Just brought a 2006 tuono r. Always had in line 4 bikes and now have a 2006 tuono r. Love the bike, the only thing i find a bit odd is the slow speed, 1st gear sort of speed...the bike seems to lag slightly and seems like i need to really twist...

My suspension linkage needs replacing can anyone tell me the procedure for it please

ARRGGHHHHHHHH. and GRRRRRRRRRR. The new levers feel lovely.... really impressed. Took the bike into the office today.. Got about 5 miles and going down the lanes I thought the bike had died as I had no power at all.... ???? Pulled over and the brakes were locked solid. I then noticed that...

Hi i was after a bit of advice i have a 2008 RSVR i've noticed that went i'm slow cornering the bike just wants to dive into corners. I was wondering if i play around with the front and rear suspension settings if it will sort it out. If i open it up a bit its fine but its a bit un nerving when...

Hi all, I don't suppose anyone has for sale or knows where I can get a removable baffle to a danmoto gp exhaust? I've had bad experiences with importing from America and that's where danmoto are based, so don't really want to buy from them direct. Adam

Hi guys I have a 2008 tuono factory and the rev counter has stopped working everything else in the dash is ok anyone tell me where the rpm sensor is or if it gives trouble please

hi there guys. riding an '03 RSV mille, had it for about a year with no issues or worries. currently it's my only means of transport (commuter bike? sure) recently an issue cropped up. i'll explain it in as much detail as i can: - when at idle, or low RPM flat-throttle (i.e. constant speed...

So I just bought an 01 Mille yesterday and I can't seem to get the rear brake to work. I've bleed the line about a million times, pulled and split the rear caliper to check the pistons and o-rings. I unbolted the master cylinder to check for leaks and I've come up clueless. I'm not losing...

Hi, looking at my bike in the garage the other night as you do, and realised that the bike stands very upright and wouldn't take much to knock it over, I.e. a gust of wind if the bike wasn't parked right, now I've seen a few posts about the side stand not quite being up to spec and just wondered...
