safe drive
To drive the vehicle it is necessary to be in possession of all the requirements prescribed by law (driving licence, minimum age, psychophysical ability, insurance, state taxes, vehicle registration, number plate, etc.).
Gradually get to know the vehicle by driving it first in areas with low traffic and/or private areas.
The use of medicins, alcohol and drugs or psychotropic substances notably increases the risk of accidents.
Be sure that you are in good psychophysical conditions and fit for driving and pay particular attention to physical weariness and drowsiness.
Most road accidents are caused by the driver»s lack of experience.
NEVER lend the vehicle to beginners and, in any case, make sure that the driver has all the requirements for driving.
6 |
use and maintenance RSV 1000 R - RSV 1000 R FACTORY |
Rigorously observe all road signs and national and local road regulations.
Avoid abrupt movements that can be dangerous for yourself and other people (for example: proceeding on the back wheel, speeding, etc.), and give due consideration to the road surface, visibility and other driving conditions.
Avoid obstacles that could damage the vehicle or make you lose control.
Avoid riding in the slipstream created by preceding vehicles in order to increase your speed.
WARNING
Always drive with both hands on the handlebars and both feet on the footrests (or on the rider’s footboards), in the correct driving posture.
Avoid standing up or stretching your limbs while driving.
use and maintenance RSV 1000 R - RSV 1000 R FACTORY |
7 |
The driver should pay attention and avoid distractions caused by people, things and movements (never smoke, eat, drink, read, etc.) while driving.
COOLER |
OIL |
Use only the vehicle»s specific fuels and lubricants indicated in the "LUBRICANT CHART"; regularly check oil, fuel and coolant levels.
If the vehicle has been involved in an accident, make sure that no damage has occurred to the control levers, pipes, wires, braking system and vital parts.
If necessary, have the vehicle inspected by an aprilia Official dealer who should
carefully check the frame, handlebars, suspensions, safety parts and all the devices that you cannot check by yourself.
Always remember to report any malfunction to the technicians to help them in their work.
Never use the vehicle when the amount of damage it has suffered endangers your safety.

use and maintenance RSV 1000 R - RSV 1000 R FACTORY |

Never change the position, inclination or colour of: number plate, direction indicators, lights and horns.
Any modification of the vehicle will result in the invalidity of the warranty.
ONLY ORIGINALS
Any modification of the vehicle and/or the removal of original components can compromise vehicle performance levels and safety or even make it illegal.
We recommend respecting all regulations and national and local provisions regarding the equipment of the vehicle.
In particular, avoid all modifications that increase the vehicle»s performance levels or alter its original characteristics.
Never race with other vehicles. Avoid off-road driving.
CLOTHING |
Before starting, always wear a correctly fastened crash helmet. Make sure that it is homologated, in good shape, of the right size and that the visor is clean.
Wear protective clothing, preferably in light and/or reflecting colours. In this way you will make yourself more visible to the other drivers, thus notably reducing the risk of being knocked down, and you will be more protected in case of fall.
This clothing should be very tight-fitting and fastened at the wrists and ankles; strings, belts and ties should not be hanging loose; prevent these and other objects from interfering with driving by getting entangled with moving parts or driving mechanisms.
use and maintenance RSV 1000 R - RSV 1000 R FACTORY |

Do not keep objects that can be dangerous in case of fall, for example pointed objects like keys, pens, glass vials etc. in your pockets (the same recommendations also apply to passenger).
The owner of the vehicle is responsible for the choice, installation and use of any accessory.
Avoid installing accessories that cover horns or lights or that could impair their functions, limit the suspension stroke and the steering angle, hamper the operation of the controls and reduce the distance from the ground and the angle of inclination in turns.
Avoid using accessories that hamper access to the controls, since this can make reaction times longer during an emergency.
Big fairings and windshields installed on the vehicle may produce aerodynamic forces that affect the stability of the vehicle, especially when riding at high speed.
Make sure that the equipment is well fastened to the vehicle and not dangerous when driving.
Do not install electrical devices and do not modify those already existing to avoid electrical overloads, because the vehicle could suddenly stop or there could be a dangerous current shortage in the horn and in the lights.
aprilia recommends the use of genuine accessories (aprilia genuine accessories).
Be careful and moderate when loading your luggage. Keep any luggage loaded as close as possible to the center of gravity of the vehicle and distribute the load evenly on both sides, in order to reduce unbalance to the minimum. Furthermore, make sure that the load is firmly secured to the vehicle, especially during long trips.

KG! |
Avoid hanging bulky, heavy and/or dangerous objects on the handlebars, mudguards and forks, because the vehicle might respond more slowly in turns and its manoeuvrability could be unavoidably impaired.
Do not place bags that are too bulky or the crash helmet on the vehicle sides and do not ride with them on, because they could hit people or obstacles, making you lose control of the vehicle.
Do not carry any bag if it is not tightly secured to the vehicle.
Do not carry bags which protrude too much from the luggage-rack or which cover the lights, horn or indicators.
Do not carry animals or children on the glove compartment or on the luggage rack.
Do not exceed the maximum load allowed for each luggage-rack.
When the vehicle is overloaded, its stability and its manoeuvrability can be compromised.

You have three seconds to change setting as desired (as long as the rev counter pointer (2) is pointing current red line setting).
Use the "+" button to change setting. Press briefly to increase setting by 100 rpm. Hold down a little longer to increase by 1000 rpm.
After reaching full scale value (12,000 rpm), the pointer will go back to zero automatically.
Three seconds after last pressing the "+" button, the new red line threshold is stored. This is confirmed by the red line light (1) coming on for three seconds, while the pointer (2) will go back to zero.
If the engine is started during the setting procedure, the last setting is retained. The new threshold setting is also lost if the battery is disconnected during the setting procedure, and the last setting is retained.
