use and maintenance RSV 1000 R - RSV 1000 R FACTORY
CAUTION
Do not operate the rear brake lever with
the wheel removed, or the pistons might
fall out leading to brake fluid spillage.
In the event of brake fluid spillage,
contact your
aprilia Official dealer to
have the vehicle serviced properly.
CAUTION
The left (10) and right (11) spacers
should still be sitting in the wheel hub.
If they slip off, refit them correctly (see
REFITTING THE WHEEL).
NOTE The brake calliper (13) carrier
(12) is still attached to the right side of the
swinging arm.
Use great care. If the final drive assembly
(14) is mounted to the cush drive hub (15),
do not turn the rear wheel over or place it
horizontally lying on the rear chain
sprocket (A) side, or the final drive
assembly will come off and the sprocket (9)
might damage.
NOTE To avoid removal of the final drive
assembly, place the wheel in the same
position as for travel (vertically) or place it
horizontally with the sprocket up and
secure the wheel to keep it from falling
over.
NOTE Do not disturb the five nuts (16).
The final drive can be detached from the
cush drive hub as an assembly.
◆ Place both hands (B) on the outer
diameter of the sprocket (9) and
withdraw the final drive assembly. Keep
it parallel to wheel axis during removal.
REFITTING THE WHEEL
If you have removed the final drive
assembly (14):
NOTE Fit the final drive assembly
keeping it parallel to wheel axis and make
sure the cush drive rubbers become
properly located into their seats in the cush
drive hub (15).
◆ Place both hands (C) on the outer
diameter of the sprocket (9) and insert
the final drive assembly into the cush
drive hub (15).
CAUTION
Make sure the spacer (18) does not slip
off the final drive assembly on refitting.
NOTE The next procedure is only
required when the left (10) and/or right (11)
spacers have slipped out of place.
