Hello, when I started my 2000 model Millie tonight there was a strange very loud metal click then nothing, tried again and fired up no problem. Any ideas what the click could be? Cheers

Hey guys first of all thanks for taking the time to read this. Ive got a 2001 rsv1000 mille not the mille r with 13000 miles on the clock, Still getting used to the bike as ive always bin an inline 4 man and used to work in a yamaha dearship but never worked or rode a mille so its all new to me...

Title says it all. Thought I'd walk myself through this bike in a somewhat 'Joe Average Generic' kind of explanation about a few fundamental theories. I cannot find that thread I read, but someone did not correct a concept one had about throttle sync. Their theory started to make me wonder if I...

Hi all, Will the Tuono pass a 101db noise limit test at 5000rpm with standard exhausts?

Hi everyone, I just bought RSVR its 2008 and has only 2400 miles on it. If somebody can help and provide me with little bit knowledge about this bike, like how is the engine noise and what kind of maintenance this bike for long run require. Thank you

Hi all. Ive been riding my RSV and can hear what sounds like something metalic skimming off another metalic part. If you can imagine something spinning on a shaft and it being off cetre and slightly touching another metal part as its spininng producing this skimming noise. Its more prominant in...

I noticed this morning that the fuel pump didn't make the usual priming noise when i turned on the ignition. Though it was odd so turned off and back on and this time there it was. Rode to work parked up all happy. Come time to come home and definitely no noise, stopped on the way home and...

does any one have details of how they test the dB at track days. I can get a sound level meter from Uni but need details of distance, rev range etc etc. I have read it is either 0.5 or 1m away at a 45 degree angle and 2/3 or 3/4 max revs, so i guess 7 or 8000 rpm for us but this tends to be...

Alright guys, Need some help and advice. Im mean't to be off to see Matt (BB1000) tomorrow so I thought I would go and sort the rear brake out and check oil etc. the bike will not start, If I hit the button I get a click from under the seat abd the dash light dims a little but nothing else...

Hi, forgive me if this has been asked before, but does anyone know what db reading an '04 factory will give with standard exhaust on? would it pass a 101db test? thanks Steve

On my way into work this morning was gining her some stick. doing about 110/120 ish (on a private road of course officer). with my head on the tank and throttle hard open the bike sounded like god gargling spitfires. my bike is a '53' RSVR Factory fully stock to my knowledge. I havent had it...

hi to everyone as im a newbie. first off i would like to say i love my aprlia rsv mille, i have wanted one for years and just managed to save up enough to get a 2000 rsv mille 2 weeks ago. but here come the query, when the clutch is depressed i rumbling kind of noise comes from the left engine...

Picked up my new T the other day.....great machine I love it, just a quick question, when I roll off the throttle there is a rather strange sort of metalic janggle sound, it does not do it on every roll off, sometimes when I change down and then again as I let the clutch out it happens...

Hey up chaps, After a bit of advice. My bike is making a grinding noise down by the swingarm (hard to tell when riding though). To explain, if you roll the power on at around 4000rpm, it picks up no bother but grinds for about 1000rpm. Rather like the chain or the clutch. I liken it to a...
