Griff, thanks a ton!! This made everything so easy for me. Bike is almost ready now. Changed the slave cylinder recently too. Without your help and i couldn’t have done it!
No need for a workshopmanual with this channel. Perfect!
Heres me thinking there's 1 sump plug, glad you do videos like this helps a lot.
Cool I’m glad we can help !👍🏻
Awesome job as usual Griff. One addition, every other time I do this I also take the metal screen out the bottom of the oil tank and clean it with compressed air. :)
Just finished my service, my gen 2 and I thank you for this!
Thanks Griff. Reckon my Tuono will last forever with all these tips. Top stuff, thanks AP team
Cheers for the kind words nick !👍🏻
Great info.. just purchased & had my RSV Factory delivered today.. 👍🏼
Nice little tutorial mate 👍
hi Griff, what I missed from your video: some explanation about those 2 viscosities the cans show. When to use the 10W-40 and when the 15W-50 is better.
Loved this video
Great video ….. Cheers
Lads ( and the lady), there are those of us with off market Aprilia's. I bought a lightly road rashed Shiver 750 and there are the people who have Dorsudoros and Mana 850s. Maybe throw a bone or two to us. I purchased the bike after looking at an unaffordable Tuono 1000R. I have other hobbies as well so this isn't the only thing in my basket. Please spare a thought to those of us who are wanting to restore these bikes.
Great stuff guy's! Any thought on a valve check/adjust vid on a gen1?
We’ll you’ve worked on the bike I bought for sure. White tyre pen on all the nut’s
I'd gladly change your o ring, very handsome x
Nice one Griff only just found your channel mate
Welcome Steve !
Hi Griff, great channel keep up the love for Aprilia's! I've been riding them here in the States since 1997... So, I'd like to ask or pose an investigative query. How much difference in dimensions is the RSV4 engine to the RSV Twin Mille...?
I did mine step by step watching the video 😂😂 by the end my hands are covered in oil and you tell me to wear gloves because it's horribly carcinogenic. Lmao thanks for the heads up
I have to say....as a long time member of the AP fam....I'm a Team Ambahh fan....and she might prove me right....betting on her....🤣🤣🤣
Thanks, I have to admit I was unaware of the magnetic drain plug (next to the filter housing).
Anything else we can help with please just holla !! 👍🏻👍🏻
Hi,
allow me the correction:
- oil tank screw: 15Nm,
- oil filter screws: 11Nm;
- magnetic screw: 12Nm.
Great and informative video Griff. Just two small things…….first pouring into a jug not needed your watching the level tube as you fill, second once the oil is all drained and bike reassembled remove the oil pan of old oil, trying to fish out drain plugs screws sockets etc can get a bit messy.
@first last Still no need to pour oil into the jug first, l’ve changed the oil in my mille a few times, never had to use a jug, provided you get the bike up to normal working temp then use a rear paddock stand to get the bike level, then top up watching the level tube. It’s not rocket science.
Pouring it out of a jug us a superior process. You can do any way but the best process is to pour oil into a jug .
Hey guys, big fan of the channel and huge reapect for your work, i have a question, the service manual for mile reffers to Oil filter you are changing in the video and also some oil filter on the tank? i have never heared of oil change requireing change of two oil filters, i could also find no info on this, could you maybe go deeper into this? manual says oil filter on the tank should be changed every other oil change, is this necessary? How do you do it? i know its been a year since the video, but if i could get a reply it would mean the world to me, thanks in advance 👍
Thanks you @AP workshop top guns. can you show me or to Aprilia RSV 1000R 2007 service and especially the hose connection in the tank please the hose connection confused me 🙄🙄👍.
Do you have one doing the sprag clutch 🤔
Did you not take out the oil pipe which goes into the oil tank to clean the strainer? Also, tipping the bike over always gets the last few Oz of oil out
hi dear Griff, I'm Italian, I have a splendid 2003 Rsv 1000 and I have an extra engine. I would like to know in your opinion how I should keep this second engine which has only 10000km! Thanks for your passion. . .
Hi from Greece.You are doin excellent job .I wish I lived in UK to bring my caponord to you.Just one question.The Aprilia manual refer the use of 15w50 oil.Is any cons or pros using 10w40 as you used in this bike.Thanks
I know this is an old question but since nobody answered...
As a "rule of thumb" colder climates can get away with or perhaps even benefit from slightly better oil flow at startup.
Only the Rotax/Aprilia lab techs would be able to give a satisfactory answer as they would have the lab reports from the oil after running these engines on a bench for 50 - 100,000 miles.
What I can tell you from owning a series of RSV / R's and using them all year round in central England is my bikes seemed to use less oil with 15w50.
When you say two fan cycles, are you running it until the fans kick on and the shutting it down until it cools and then restarting until fans kick on again and then shutting down. Followed by a 30 second wait and then top off to a bit over the minimum line? Or I could simply take for a quick blast after filling with the initial 3l, long enough ride for fans to kick on and when returning home do the top up? Manual states 3.9l with filter change but ive read so many accounts of people overfilling or under filling. Ill be doing this on my 2010 tuono very soon. Bike is in shipping currently moving from west coast USA to east coast USA. Should arrive by second week of May and have oil change stuff ordered and on the way as well. Thanks!
Do these engines use much oil? After a couple of trackdays I had to top up about 250ml on my 2011 V2 Tuono. Also, is there a washer on the magnetic plug?
Does anyone know the size of Allen key needed for the engine oil magnetic drain screw please?
Not the one on the underneath, but the one to the right of the oil filter.
It's gonna be my first go at this ordered the bits off you wish me luck if you get a inconsolable blubbering man ringing you for help because I've stripped my sump thread it's me 😂
Greetings from Highlands 🏴
Just purchased 1st generation Tuono from SuperBikeFactory , and after riding full day on next day won’t start...Found a lot of oil in air filter box. Got fillings, that they overfilled oil.
Question: How is the hell oil gets into air filter box?
Old message but...
Crankcase breather spits oil mist into the airbox.
They'll do it a tiny bit anyway and according to internet mythology (in other words might be bullshit) it's the breather arrangement that is the cause of oil usage on the V60.
Non starting? Mine used to eat the odd battery and the reg/rectifier connectors can corrode.
I reckon you pre-loosened that magnetic plug, they're usually tighter than a sharks arse at 20 fathoms
Heheheheheh I can assure you it wasn’t ... but I hear ya ... they’re massively over tightened usually
WOW - No idea that there was a third screw, to drain :) Cheers Griff :)
Cool glad to help 👍🏻👍🏻
Cool film! I do have a daft question - sorry! Why do you decant the oil into a jug before you pour it in? Is it essentially to measure how much you put in? Thanks 😊
So you can measure the amount going in !👍🏻
What i about the screenfilter in the oil tank, is there a interval cleaning that ? or should it be left as is ?
Yeah what's your opinion on this screen?
So I would say periodically remove this gauze filter from the bottom of the oil tank .... in all my years of removing them I’ve never seen them blocked or even partially blocked .... but hurt never hurt to check !👍🏻
AP Workshops no it don’t, thanks for a great channel and a lot of good info keep it up 😃
cant get the magnetic-plug out to save my life. The last owner did not own a torque wrench i suspect.....
You don't do much with the new aprilia rsv4 rr/rf,
It´s a great video, just a shame you overdid the two sump plugs. No need to use the torque wrench if you already tightened them that hard without it.
Once again, no mention of the Falco. Aprilia’s ginger stepchild. 😔
Can you think of something specific. To the falco that would Be worth making a film on? ..... I ask because they share a lot of the same parts of other bikes from that era, the info in the film is generic to v990 .. same engine as fitted to the falco ! Please get in touch and I’ll put something together for falco pilots everywhere no problems
Same engine mate. All good except mention of the screen in the sump to which I think is common to all v990's?
Luv my ginger hair stepchild.
