use and maintenance RS 125
The excessive wear of the
friction material would cause the
contact of the pad metal support
with the disc, with consequent metallic
noise and production of sparks from the
caliper; braking efficiency, safety and
soundness of the disc would thus be
negatively affected.
u
If the thickness of the friction material
(even of one pad only) has reduced to
about 1 mm, replace both pads.
– Front pad (3).
– Rear pad (4).
Have the pads changed by your
aprilia Official Dealer.
IDLING ADJUSTMENT
Carefully read page 43
(MAINTENANCE).
Adjust the idling every time it is irregular.
To carry out this operation, proceed as
follows:
u
Ride for a few miles until reaching the
normal running temperature,
see
page 15 (Coolant temperature
(°C/°F))
.
u
Position the gear lever in neutral (green
warning light “
” on).
u
Check the engine idling rpm on the
revolution counter.
The engine idling speed must be about
1250 ± 100 rpm.
If necessary:
u
Position the vehicle on the stand.
u
Adjust the knob (1).
By SCREWING IT (clockwise), you
increase the engine rpm.
By UNSCREWING IT (anticlockwise),
you decrease the engine rpm.
u
Twist the throttle grip, accelerating and
decelerating a few times to make sure
that it functions correctly and to check if
the idling speed is constant.
If necessary, contact your aprilia
Official Dealer.
