CHECKING THE STEERING
Every now and then it is advisable to check
the steering, in order to verify if there are
slacks.
To check the steering it is necessary to:
Position the vehicle on the centre stand.
Prepare a 200 mm high support,
the base of which must measure
200 x 200 mm.
Place the support under the vehicle and
a spongy cloth between them, so that the
front wheel can move freely and the ve-
hicle cannot fall down.
Make sure that the vehicle is sta-
ble.
Shake the fork in the direction of travel
(see figure).
Do not shake the fork excesive-
ly, otherwise you may take in
consideration the movement of the
stand, thus observing an incorrect
slack.
Repeat the previous operation more
than once.
If you find that there is a considerable
slack, contact your aprilia Official Dealer
to restore the optimal steering condi-
tions.
CHECKING 
THE ENGINE FULCRUM AXIS
Periodically check the slack existing be-
tween the engine pin bushings.
To carry out this operation, proceed as fol-
lows:
Position the vehicle on the centre stand.
Shake the wheel perpendicularly to the
direction of travel (see figure).
If you find any slack, make sure that all
the fastening elements of the fulcrum
axis are well tightened.
If the slack persists, contact
your 
aprilia Official Dealer.
