    Running rough

    So I just bough my first Aprilia, it's a 2004 RSV1000R with Akrapovic exhaust. Bike is awesome but it runs really rough in low RPM's. I was told it's because ECU factory configuration (runs lean for emissions) with the slip-on pipes... Is this true?? And is there something that I can do to make...

    Rough idle when warm, or cuts out

    Hi GuyGuys. My 2005 Tuono has a strange intermittent fault. When the bike is cold it starts fine and idles fine with the choke on, one it reaches temp and the choke is off, all is good, I go ride the bike and then when I come to a stop and have the bike in neutral it idles like its firing on...

    New to RSV's , feels a bit lean / rough

    I have an 02 mille with akra ti and ti evo 2 chip. Not sure if the airbox has been modded. I'm new to these bikes but to me it feels a bit lean around the midrange. Pulls hard but there's a lot of rough vibes around the 5-6k range. Especially with fast roll-ons. So how might I smooth it out...

    2007 RSVR running rough?

    Well new to the Aprilia and love the bike, but in town pulling away just seems the fuelling is a little rough about 4-5k revs. Past that runs like a rocket, whole bike standard so not been messed with and only 9900 miles. Is this how they are, or could it be the fuel mapping.

    Rough Running

    My T which has been faultless until now is starting to run quite rough between 4.5 and 5.5K revs when riding with the wife on the back. It still goes properly, but feels like there is something out of balance and sounds a bit vibey too. It is a 08 Factory with 6500 miles. Anyone else...

    Rough running

    Hi all, The bike has started running rough recently, its only done 7K miles and had its second service 1k ago. I'm wondering if it could be the spark plugs? I would have expected them to have lasted longer if this is the case. Its become really jerky at constant throttle or low revs, and at low...
