In our perennial quest for HP and torque the topic of cam timing seems to be missing from the threads thus far posted. Yet cam timing can have a significant effect on overall engine performance and the mix between HP and torque. Since the HM has only a single cam per cylinder there isn’t anything we can due to vary the overlap for any given cam, but there is certainly some range of adjustability on how the overall cam timing is set by cylinder. With the stock cams, the timing specs for both cylinders are as follows at 1 mm valve clearance Intake Opening 15° B.T.D.C. Closing 65° A.B.D.C. Exhaust Opening 62° B.B.D.C. Closing 19° A.T.D.C. (Anyone have the specs of for the DP cams?) Certainly degreeing in the cams to spec is a good starting point, but my real question is how might HP and torque be impacted by advancing or retarding cam timing? There’s lots of information on how to degree a cam and people have been doing so since the old flat-head hot rod days, but information on how changing cam timing in and by itself affects overall performance and/or the mix between HP and torque (perhaps held as closely guarded trade secrets by the cam manufacturers +/or tuners).,,,

Hi! Please do replace the instrumental panel for this surely is faulty. No worries for it will really reach it's break point, it's inevitable. Hope this helps and good luck! Thank you for using FixYa!

Here is a link to a service manual http://www.serviceaprilia.com/public/lumAprilia/Tuono%20Mille%20R%20My05/Tuono%20Mille%20R%20English%20-%202005.zip

You will have to switch it from metric to standard. Some have a button on it. Others you can purchase an inline gearbox fitting that switches it from metric to standard

Hi, Please get your battery and alternator checked. Since your car can't maintain power, one of these two items would most likely be the cause. In fact, if you had a bad alternator it could permanently damage a new battery because the alternator wouldn't charge the battery for an extended period of time. Thank you.

ask maker or seller for help. ive no idea what key update means? nor the need./ I'd just drive it and forget all that. or risk down time, oops

Instructions

1. • 1 Park your RSV 1000R on a well-ventilated, level area, using its kickstand.
   • 2 Start the engine and let it idle in place until the temperature gauge built into the instrument cluster indicates a minimum internal temperature of 180 degrees Fahrenheit. This is the motorcycle's ideal operating temperature.
   • 3 Take note of the engine idle speed, using the tachometer needle, while the engine is running. Ideally, the engine should idle steadily at 1,250 rpm.
   • 4 Adjust the engine idle speed to 1,250 rpm, using the idle adjuster screw hidden between the lower right edge of the fuel tank and the upper edge of the right middle fairing panel. Turn the idle adjuster screw clockwise to increase the engine idle speed, or counterclockwise to decrease the engine idle speed, using a small flat screwdriver if your RSV 1000R's frame (VIN number) precedes ZD4MEE009YS000292. A plastic knob allows the engine idle speed to adjusted by hand on RSV 1000R models with a frame (VIN) numbers starting from ZD4MEE009YS000293.
   • 5 Rev the engine two to three times and observe the tachometer. The engine should return to a 1,250 rpm idle. Adjust the engine idle speed as needed, using the method described, then rev the engine again. Problems may exist within the throttle control, fuel-injection system or engine, if the engine idle speed will not hold steady at 1,250 rpm. Contact your local Aprilia service facility for assistance.
   • 6 Stop the engine, once you have obtained a steady 1,250 rpm idle speed.

If it came with a battery, you need to put a battery in it. The battery provides the power for the spark, the stator provides power to charge the battery. You can rewire modern scooters to suit yourself. https://www.google.com/search?q=Aprillia+Sonic+GP+Battery ..

battery voltage??

A clogged gas cap engine hole can cause this.

If ok, change the fuel filter(s).

A clogged filter will allow a little gas through but can keep up with demand.

OK< can you provide more details? Does it turn over? Does it fire at all? Do you know if you have a spark? Do you know if fuel is getting through? Has it run properly recently? To run, a motor needs fuel, air and spark Inspect all fuel lines and wires. Pull the sparkplug and see if it is burnt/wet/corroded

Look in the owners manual

It's not the new switch, it's the new keys that have to be programmed. The keys have uniquely coded chips in them, when you turn on the ECU uses the antenna that is by the ignition switch to look for a code that it recognises, you need to introduce the new key codes to the ECU. This is what the manual says: In case of installation of a new ignition switch the procedure is as follows: Turn ON using new key The dashboard will not recognise the key and will ask for the customer code: insert the customer code. It is 00000 when supplied. It can be changed to any numeric five digit number. Now you can enter: MENU, DIAGNOSIS (insert the service code 25973), Then select MODIFY KEYS and implement the procedure. If you are not sure about the mode switch, this is what you do: Use handlebar "mode" switch (left / right) to select "Menu" option on the screen, then press mode switch in to enter. Use handlebar "mode" switch to select "Diagnosis", press to enter. Use handlebar "mode" switch to enter the workshop code (25973). When you have selected the digit you want then press in and it will move to the next digit etc. You can't screw anything up, if you do it wrong go back or turn off and start again.

Most likely cause is a broken or bad earth on the dim light (power then has to go through 3 filaments in series to get to the earth on the good light).

Check brake pads first

sorry running rich is not a plug burning problem running too lean is so check your fuel pressures, injector , air inlet (filter)

The coolant system on any engine, including bikes and scooters, does not use just water. You will need a coolant mixture which you dilute with water. There are several types of coolant mix so it would be a good idea to ask an Aprilia specialist exactly which type of coolant mix to use.

Check the alternator output it should be about 14.2 volts at about 1500 RPM
