ADJUSTING THE FRONT BRAKE
CONTROL LEVER AND THE
CLUTCH CONTROL LEVER
It is possible to adjust the distance be-
tween the lever (1) end and the grip (2), by
rotating the adjuster (3).
The positions “1” and “4” correspond to an
approximate distance of 105 and 75 mm,
respectively, between the lever end and
the grip.
The positions “2” and “3” correspond to in-
termediate distances.
[Push the control lever (1) forward and
rotate the adjuster (3) until the desired
number is positioned in correspondence
with the reference arrow.
ADJUSTING THE REAR BRAKE
CONTROL LEVER CLEARANCE
The brake control lever is positioned ergo-
nomically during the assembly of the vehi-
cle.
If necessary, it is possible to adjust the
brake control lever clearance:
◆ Remove the lower fairing, see p. 78 (RE-
MOVING THE LOWER FAIRING).
◆ Loosen the lock nut (4).
◆ Unscrew the pump control rod (5) to en-
sure a minimum clearance of 0.5 – 1 mm
between the rod and the pump piston.
Make sure that there is a certain idle
stroke in the movement of the lever (6),
to prevent the brake from remaining ap-
plied and the consequent untimely wear
of the braking elements.
Lever (6) idle stroke: 4 mm (measured
at the lever end).
◆ Lock the pump control rod (5) by means
of the lock nut (4).
After the adjustment, make sure that the
wheel rotates freely with released
brake.
Check the braking efficiency.
If necessary, contact your aprilia Offi-
cial Dealer.
