1.2. GENERAL RULES
1.2.1. BASIC SAFETY RULES
CARBON MONOXIDE
Should it be necessary to perform some operations with the vehicle running, make sure to work outdoors or in a wellaerated room.
Avoid starting the engine indoors.
In case you are working indoors, use a gas exhaust system.
DANGER
Exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, which is extremely toxic if inhaled and may cause loss of
consciousness or even lead to death.
FUEL
DANGER
The fuel used in internal combustion engines is highly flammable and can become explosive under
particular conditions.
Refuelling and engine service should take place in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped.
Do not smoke when refuelling or in the proximity of sources of fuel vapours, avoid flames, sparks and
any element that could ignite fuel or provoke explosions.
DO NOT DISPOSE OF FUEL IN THE ENVIRONMENT.
KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
HIGH-TEMPERATURE COMPONENTS
The engine and the components of the exhaust system become very hot and remain hot for some time after the engine
has been stopped.
Before handling these components, wear insulating gloves or wait until the engine and the exhaust system have cooled
down.
USED GEARBOX AND FORK FLUIDS
DANGER
Wear latex gloves when servicing.
Gear fluid may cause serious damage to the skin if handled daily and for long periods.
Wash your hands carefully after handling engine oil.
Take it to the filling station where you usually buy it or to an oil salvage centre.
Wear latex gloves when servicing.
DO NOT DISPOSE OF FLUID IN THE ENVIRONMENT
KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
BRAKE FLUID
WARNING
When handling the brake fluid, take care not to spill it on the plastic, rubber or painted parts, since it
can damage them. When carrying out the maintenance operations on the braking system, use a clean
cloth to cover these parts.
Always wear safety goggles when working on the braking system.
The brake fluid is highly irritant. Avoid contact with your eyes.
If the brake fluid gets in contact with your eyes, carefully wash them with fresh water and immediately
seek medical advice.
KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
COOLANT
Coolant contains ethylene glycol that is flammable, under certain conditions. When ignited, ethylene glycol produces
invisible flames that might cause burns.
1 - 5
GENERAL INFORMATION
DANGER
Take care not to spill coolant onto hot engine parts and exhaust system. It may ignite and produce
invisible flames.
Wear latex gloves when servicing.
Although toxic, it has a sweet taste that might attract animals. Never leave coolant in open container
or in a position easily reachable by animals.
KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
Do not remove radiator cap when engine is still hot. Coolant is under pressure and might cause burns.
HYDROGEN GAS AND BATTERY ELECTROLYTE
DANGER
The battery electrolyte is a toxic, caustic substance containing sulphuric acid and thus able to cause
severe burns in case of contact with the skin.
Always wear tight gloves and protective clothes when handling this fluid.
In case of contact with skin, rinse with plenty of fresh water.
Always use a protection for your eyes since even a very small amount of the battery fluid can cause
blindness. In the event of contact with your eyes, carefully wash them with water for fifteen minutes
and then consult immediately an eye specialist.
Should you accidentally drink some fluid, drink abundant water or milk, then drink magnesia milk or
vegetable oil and immediately seek medical advice.
The battery gives off explosive gases and must be kept away from flames and sources of ignition or
heat; do not smoke near the battery.
KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
Battery fluid is corrosive.
Do not spill it, especially on plastic parts.
Make sure that the electrolyte acid is suitable for the type of battery used.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS AND INFORMATION
Follow these instructions closely when repairing, disassembling or reassembling the motorcycle or its components.
DANGER
Using bare flames is strictly forbidden when working on the motorcycle. Before servicing or
inspecting the motorcycle: stop the engine and remove the key from the ignition switch; allow for the
engine and exhaust system to cool down; where possible, lift the motorcycle using adequate
equipment placed on firm and level ground. Be careful of any parts of the engine or exhaust system
which may still be hot to the touch to avoid scalds or burns.
Do not put any vehicle parts into your mouth: vehicle components are not edible and some of them
are harmful or even toxic.
Unless expressly specified otherwise, assemblies are reassembled by reversing the dismantling
procedure. Where a procedure is cross-referred to relevant sections in the manual, proceed sensibly
to avoid disturbing any parts unless strictly necessary. Do not polish matt-painted surfaces with
polishing paste.
Never use fuel instead of solvent to clean the motorcycle.
Do not clean any rubber or plastic parts or the seat with alcohol, petrol or solvents. Clean with water
and mild detergent.
Always disconnect the battery negative (-) lead before soldering any electrical components.
When two or more persons service the same motorcycle together, special care must be taken to avoid
personal injury.
BEFORE DISASSEMBLING ANY COMPONENTS
• Clean off all dirt, mud, and dust and clear any foreign objects from the vehicle before disassembling any
components.
• Use the model-specific special tools where specified.
PEGASO 650

PEGASO 650
GENERAL INFORMATION
DISASSEMBLING THE COMPONENTS
- Never use pliers or similar tools to slacken and/or tighten nuts and bolts. Always use the suitable spanner.
- Mark all connections (hoses, wiring, etc.) with their positions before disconnecting them. Identify each connection
using a distinctive symbol or convention.
- Mark each part clearly to avoid confusion when refitting.
- Thoroughly clean and wash any components you have removed using a detergent with low flash point.
- Mated parts should always be refitted together. These parts will have seated themselves against one another in
service as a result of normal wear and tear and should never be mixed up with other similar parts on refitting.
- Certain components are matched-pair parts and should always be replaced as a set.
- Keep away from heat sources.
REASSEMBLING THE COMPONENTS
DANGER
Never reuse a circlip or snap ring. These parts must always be renewed once they have been
disturbed.
When fitting a new circlip or snap ring, take care to move the open ends apart just enough to allow
fitment to the shaft.
Make it a rule to check that a newly-fitted circlip or snap ring has located fully into its groove.
Never clean a bearing with compressed air.
NOTE All bearings must rotate freely with no hard spots or noise. Replace any bearings that do not meet these
requirements.
- Use ORIGINAL aprilia SPARE PARTS only.
- Use the specified lubricants and consumables.
- Where possible, lubricate a part before assembly.
- When tightening nuts and bolts, start with the largest or innermost nut/bolt and observe a cross pattern. Tighten
evenly, in subsequent steps until achieving the specified torque.
- Replace any self-locking nuts, gaskets, seals, circlips or snap rings, O-rings, split pins, bolts and screws which
have a damaged thread.
- Lubricate the bearings abundantly before assembly.
- Make it a rule to check that all components you have fitted are correctly in place.
- After repairing the motorcycle and after each service inspection, perform the preliminary checks, and then test ride
the motorcycle in a private estate area or in a safe area away from traffic.
- Clean all mating surfaces, oil seal edges and gaskets before assembly. Apply a thin layer of lithium grease along
the edges of oil seals. Fit oil seals and bearings with the marking or serial number facing outwards (in view).
ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS
To disconnect the electrical connectors, follow the procedures below. Failure to comply with these procedures may lead
to irreparable damage to the connector and the wiring as well.
If present, press the special safety hooks.
WARNING
Do not pull cables to disconnect the two connectors.
• Grasp the two connectors and disconnect them by pulling them in the two opposite directions.
• In case of dirt, rust, moisture, etc., thoroughly clean the inside of the connectors with compressed air.
• Make sure that the cables are correctly fitted inside the connector terminals.
NOTE The two connectors have just one correct positioning. Make sure to position them in the right direction.
• Then fit the two connectors. Make sure they are correctly coupled (a click will be heard if hooks are present).
TIGHTENING TORQUE SETTINGS
DANGER
Always remember that the tightening torque settings of all wheel, brake, wheel shaft and other
suspension parts play a fundamental role to ensure vehicle safety. Make sure that these values are
always within the specified limits.
Check fastening parts tightening torque settings at regular intervals. Upon reassembly, always use a
torque wrench.
Failure to comply with these recommendations could lead to the loosening and detachment of one of
these parts with a consequent locking of the wheel or other serious troubles affecting the vehicle
manoeuvrability, and thus the risk of falls and serious injuries or death.

GENERAL INFORMATION
1.3. DANGEROUS ELEMENTS
1.3.1. WARNINGS
FUEL
DANGER
The fuel used to operate engines is highly flammable and becomes explosive under particular
conditions.
Refuelling and engine service should take place in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped.
Do not smoke when refuelling or in the proximity of sources of fuel vapours, avoid flames, sparks and
any element that could ignite fuel or provoke explosions.
Take care not to spill fuel out of the filler, or it may ignite when in contact with hot engine parts.
In the event of accidental fuel spillage, make sure the affected area is fully dry before starting the
engine. Fuel expands from heat and when left under direct sunlight.
Never fill the fuel tank up to the brim. Tighten the filler cap securely after each refuelling.
Avoid contact with skin. Do not inhale vapours. Do not swallow fuel. Do not transfer fuel between
different containers using a hose.
DO NOT DISPOSE OF FUEL IN THE ENVIRONMENT.
KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
Use only premium grade unleaded petrol, min. O.N. 95 (RON) and 85 (MON).
LUBRICANTS
DANGER
A good lubrication ensures the vehicle safety.
Failure to keep the lubricants at the recommended level or the use of a non-suitable new and clean
type of lubricant can lead to the engine or gearbox seizure, thus causing serious accidents, personal
injury or even death.
Gear fluid may cause serious damage to the skin if handled daily and for long periods.
Wash your hands carefully after use.
Do not dispose of oil in the environment.
Take it to the filling station where you usually buy it or to an oil salvage centre.
WARNING
When filling the vehicle with this oil, take care not to spill it out. Immediately clean spilt oil, or it might
damage the vehicle paintwork.
In case of contact with oil, the tyres surface will become very slippery, thus becoming a serious
danger for your safety.
In case of leaks, do not use the vehicle. Check and trace the cause of leaks and proceed to repair.
ENGINE OIL
DANGER
Engine oil may cause serious damage to the skin if handled daily and for long periods.
Wash your hands carefully after use.
Do not dispose of oil in the environment.
Dispose of engine oil through the nearest waste oil reclamation firm or through the supplier.
Wear latex gloves when servicing.
FRONT FORK FLUID
DANGER
Front suspension response can be modified to a certain extent by changing damping settings and/or
selecting a particular grade of oil. Standard oil viscosity: SAE 20 W. Different oil grades can be
selected to obtain a particular suspension response (choose SAE 5W for a softer suspension, 20W for
a stiffer suspension).
The two grades can also be mixed in varying solutions to obtain the desired response.

PEGASO 650
GENERAL INFORMATION
BRAKE FLUID
NOTE This vehicle is fitted with front and rear disc brakes. Each braking system is operated by an independent hydraulic
circuit. The information provided below applies to both braking systems.
DANGER
Do not use the vehicle in case brakes are worn out or do not work properly. The brakes are the parts
that most ensure your safety and for this reason they must always be perfectly working. Failure to
comply with these recommendations will probably lead to a crash or an accident, with a consequent
risk of personal injury or death.
A wet surface reduces brakes efficiency.
DANGER
In case of wet ground the braking distance will be doubled, since both brakes and tyre grip on the
road surface are extremely reduced by the water present on the road surface.
Any water on brakes, after washing the vehicle or driving on a wet road surface or crossing puddles
or gips, can wet brakes so as to greatly reduce their efficiency.
Failure to comply with these recommendations may lead to serious accidents, with a consequent risk
of severe personal injuries or death.
Brakes are critical safety components. Do not ride the vehicle in case brakes are not working at their
best.
Check for brakes proper operation before every trip.
Brake fluid is an irritant. Avoid contact with eyes or skin.
In the event of accidental contact, wash affected body parts thoroughly. In the event of accidental
contact with eyes, contact an eye specialist or seek medical advice.
DO NOT RELEASE BRAKE FLUID INTO THE ENVIRONMENT.
KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
When handling brake fluid, take care not to spill it onto plastic or paint-finished parts or they will
damage.
DANGER
Do not use any brake fluids other than the specified type. Never mix different types of fluids to top up
level, as this will damage the braking system.
Do not use brake fluid from containers which have been kept open or in storage for long periods.
Any sudden changes in play or hardness in the brake levers are warning signs of problems with the
hydraulic circuits.
Ensure that the brake discs and brake linings have not become contaminated with oil or grease. This
is particularly important after servicing or inspections.
Make sure the brake lines are not twisted or worn.
Prevent accidental entering of water or dust into the circuit.
Wear latex gloves when servicing the hydraulic circuit.
DISC BRAKES
DANGER
The brakes are the parts that most ensure your safety and for this reason they must always be
perfectly working; check them before every trip.
A dirty disc soils the pads.
Dirty pads must be replaced, while dirty discs must be cleaned with a high-quality degreaser.
Perform the maintenance operations with half the indicated frequency if the vehicle is used in rainy or
dusty areas, on uneven surfaces or for racing.
Check brake pads for wear.
When the brake pads wear out, the level of the fluid decreases to automatically compensate for their
wear.
The front brake fluid reservoir is located on the right handlebar, near the front brake lever.
The rear brake fluid reservoir is located under the right fairing.
Do not use the vehicle if the braking system leaks fluid.
1 - 9
GENERAL INFORMATION
COOLANT
DANGER
Coolant is toxic when ingested, contact with eyes or skin may cause irritation.
In the event of contact with your skin or eyes, rinse repeatedly with abundant water and seek medical
advice. In the event of ingestion, induce vomiting, rinse mouth and throat with abundant water and
seek medical advice immediately.
DO NOT RELEASE INTO THE ENVIRONMENT.
KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
DANGER
Take care not to spill coolant onto hot engine parts. It may ignite and produce invisible flames. Wear
latex gloves when servicing.
Do not ride when coolant is below the minimum level.
Coolant mixture is a 50% solution of water and antifreeze. This is the ideal solution for most operating temperatures and
provides good corrosion protection.
This solution is also suited to the warm season, as it is less prone to evaporative loss and will reduce the need for topups.
In addition, less water evaporation means fewer minerals salts depositing in the radiator, which helps preserve the
efficiency of the cooling system.
When the temperature drops below zero degrees centigrade, check the cooling system frequently and add more
antifreeze (up to 60% maximum) to the solution, if needed.
Use distilled water in the coolant mixture. Tap water will damage the engine.
Refer to the chart given below and add water with the quantity of antifreeze to obtain a solution with the desired freezing
point:
Freezing point °C Coolant % of volume
-20° 35
-30° 45
-40° 55
PEGASO 650
NOTE Coolants have different specifications. The protection degree is written on the label.
WARNING
Use nitrite-free coolant only, with a protection until at least -35°C.
DRIVE CHAIN
Check drive chain operation, wear, slack and lubrication at regular intervals.
The vehicle is equipped with an endless chain with a joint link.
WARNING
If too slack, the chain can come off the front or rear sprockets thus leading to serious accidents and
damage to the vehicle, with consequent serious personal injury or death.
Do not use the vehicle if the chain slack has not been correctly adjusted.
To check the chain, take it with your hand where it turns on the rear sprocket and pull it as to separate
it from the sprocket itself.
If you can move the chain apart of the front sprocket for more than 3 mm (0.125 in), change chain,
front and rear sprocket.
DANGER
If not properly maintained, chain can early wear out and lead to the damage of both front and rear
sprockets.
Perform chain maintenance operations more frequently if the vehicle is used on dusty or muddy
areas.

PEGASO 650
TYRES
WARNING
If tyres are excessively inflated, the vehicle will be hard, difficult and uncomfortable to ride.
In addition, the roadworthiness, mainly on wet surfaces and during cornering, will be impaired.
Flat tyres (insufficient pressure) can slip on the rim and make you lose the control of the vehicle.
In this case too, both vehicle roadworthiness, manoeuvrability and brake efficiency will be impaired.
Tyres changing, repair, maintenance and balancing must be carried out by specialized technicians
using suitable equipment.
When new, tyres can have a thin slippery protective coating. Drive carefully for the first kilometres
(miles).
Never use rubber treating substances on tyres.
In particular, avoid contact with fluid fuels, leading to a rapid wear.
In case of contact with oil or fuel, do not clean but change the tyres.
DANGER
Some of the factory-assembled tyres of this vehicle are provided with wear indicators.
There are several kinds of wear indicators.
For more information on how to check the wear, contact your Dealer.
Visually check if the tyres are worn and in this case have them changed.
If a tyre deflates while driving, stop immediately.
Avoid hard brakings or moves and do not close throttles too abruptly.
Slowly close the throttle grip, move to the edge of the road and use the engine brake to slow down
until coming to a halt.
Failure to comply with these recommendations may lead to accidents, with a consequent risk of
personal injuries or death.
Do not install tyres with air tube on rims for tubeless tyres and vice versa.

1.4. RUNNING-IN
1.4.1. RUNNING-IN
Correct engine running-is essential to ensuring proper performance and durability.
If possible, drive on hilly roads and/or roads with many bends, so that the engine, the suspensions and the brakes
undergo a more effective running-in.
During running-in, change speed.
In this way the components are first "loaded" and then "relieved" and the engine parts can thus cool down.
Even if it is important to stress the engine components during running-in, take care not to exceed.
WARNING
Only after the first 2000 km (1250 mi) of running-in is it possible to obtain the best acceleration
performance from the vehicle.
Keep to the following indications:
• Do not open the throttle completely if the speed is low, both during and after running-in.
• During the first 500 km (312 mi) pull the brakes with caution, avoiding sharp and prolonged brakings. This ensures a
correct bedding-in of the pads on the brake discs.
• During the first 500 km (312 mi), never exceed 4000 rpm (see table).
• From 500 km (312 mi) up to 1000 km (625 mi), never exceed 5000 rpm.
DANGER
After the first 1000 km (621 mi), have the checking operations indicated in the column "After runningin" carried out by an aprilia Authorised Dealer, see REGULAR SERVICE INTERVALS CHART, in order
to avoid hurting yourself or other people and/or damaging the vehicle.
• Between the first 1000 km (625 mi) and 2000 km (1250 mi) drive more briskly, change speed and use the maximum
acceleration only for a few seconds, in order to ensure better coupling of the components; never exceed 5500 rpm (see
table).
• After 2000 km (1250 mi) you can squeeze some more power out of your engine.
