carefully.
NOTE Halve maintenance intervals if
the vehicle is used in rainy or dusty
conditions, on rough roads or for racing.
Have the throttle cables checked at an
aprilia Official dealer after the first 1000
km (625 miles) and every 10000 km (6250
miles) afterwards.
There should be 2-3 mm free play in the
throttle twistgrip (measured at twistgrip
edge).
If not so:
Place the vehicle on the stand, see page
60 (PLACING THE VEHICLE ON THE
STAND).
Take off the rubber gaiter (2).
Loosen the locknut (3).
Rotate the adjuster (4) until setting the
specified free play.
After adjusting, tighten the locknut (3)
and check free play again.
Refit the rubber gaiter (2).
CAUTION
After adjusting, turn the handlebar and
ensure that idling speed is unaffected
by handlebar movement. Open the
throttle and ensure that the twistgrip
springs back to the closed position
smoothly and gradually when released.
