start

Me again, not been around for a while. Bike has been laid up again for about 12 months and in that time it was started and ran maybe 2 or three times to begin with but about 4 months into that hibernation period I (stupidly) stopped firing it up every now and then. Just didn't have time due to...

Hi guys, I'm new to the forum. I just picked up my first RSV 1000R (2005) and it ran fine the other day, then went to start it the next day and.... nothing. So, my battery has plenty juice (gauge says 11 volts) if I turn the ignition on everything lights up, then all the lights turn off except...

recently changed my spark plugs from standard to iridium everything was good then one night went to start her up and was turning over but would not catch and start and now everytime try to start her up i get a no start message appear on the dash. Has anyone else had this problem, any help...

Hey guys... Should i be pulling the clutch in BEFORE i start my 03 Aprilia RSV? I think not but a friend thinks its best to. Cheers

Hi folks, I'm a long time lurker but seldom poster until now. I have a 2003 Gen1 T that used to start ok until the battery went bad & the bike struggled to start a number of times before I fitted a new battery. The problem I now have is that the bike seems to turn over ok but not fire &...

Hello everybody I need some help. I have a 2003 Tuono RSV which has never gone wrong in the 12months of my ownership. Until the back end of last year (Oct 13) when it cut out in the works car park and the fuel pump cut out. After a min or so it started up and ran fine again and I rode it home...

Hi everybody I'm new to the forum . I'm the owner of 2002 mille its a very nice bike but needs lots of attention- in my opinion . On top of that I need to keep my bike outside under cover and now it won't start . I left my bike unused for 3 months my bad . Last week I've been trying to start My...

Right I will try and make sure this makes sense. The other day the bike would not start in the morning, I went to work and left the optimate charger on all day. On getting home bike starts first time, go for a short ride get fuel and bike starts no problems again. Went out for a couple of hours...

Gents I have reached a point of desperation. I've searched and searched but have only found 2 posts regarding my issue, neither of which found a definitive solution. 2008 tuono factory I recently replaced my radiator. I put the key in and turned to the on position. I heard the fuel pump prime...

Hi All After doing 3 trackdays with no issues and using it 10 days ago to go to work on, my Tuono now won't start :-( I did let the fuel run really really low and had to put some in via a petrol can at home, it now tries to start/turns over but wont fire up?......any ideas? Cheers. Steve.

So I parked Frankie in the back of the garage in the last week of September and he has sat there ever since, but today I finally got a chance to try and start him. 1st attempt failed 2nd attempt failed However 3rd attempt with a helping hand from a spray bottle of avgas down the t.b's and he...

A strange thing happened today. (Short version) I have never had any problems starting the engine before, but today it happened! I could hear the pump humming and the engine turned just fine, but there was no ignition. Battery was fine, at least for a while, but eventually I had to use...

Hi guy's, First Thread as I am new and first chance to ask a query. Not had any trouble whatsoever with the 2001 Mille, other than the usual battery change and it has started pretty well for time and time again and remains a fantastic machine. Use an optimate all the time, but noticed she needs...

Hello. I have a 2002 mille which is currently at a aprilia dealers in for a service. I took it in with no issues, now i have recieved a call from them stating they have finished the work on it but it wont start! Wonderfull. So, i always keep the bike on a optimate and they say 12v is coming...

Please point me to the right direction. My story: - Couple of days ago my T didn't start and showed "ECU disconnect" error on the dash (I suspect bad battery caused it) - With jumper cables on there is no errors and I can hear the fuel pump, but when I press the start button I hear the...

Hi all, please I need some help. My 03 just went totally dead after attempting to start it. Here is the full story. After a very busy spring and summer it was ready for the first ride. The batt has been on the optimizer all winter and after servicing the bike with everything it started fine...

Buggeration. Relay arrived, just fitted it. Still won't start. Brand new battery fully charged shows healthy volts and upon thumbing the starter it turns over fast and perfectly but refuses to fire up. I've tried it with the fast idle lever fully open, closed and in between. I've also tried it...

I hate my first post to be a problem, but yeah, it is. She shut down during the first run after I replaced a bad fuel pump..mid throttle, about 6k rpm 3rd gear. Ran excellent right til it shut down, about 15 miles into the ride. And now wont start. Battery voltage is 13, bike cranks healthy...

I changed my mirrors from the stock mirrors to a set off a CBR 1000RR that also have the integrated turn signal on the mirror and they give me a much larger field of vision behind me now. I don't have them set up as running lights, just turn signals. The problem is, now the bike won't start...
