Congratulations on your new RXV SXV.

This innovative motorcycle is designed to provide high performance and great fun under all usage conditions - in other words, with an intent to

revolutionise the concept of enduro and supermotard motorcycles. Aprilia's first and foremost commitment is to build motorcycles with high technological

content, that are extremely safe to ride and will retain their value over time.

IMPORTANT NOTICE ON VEHICLE USE AND LEGAL WARRANTY

Aprilia SXV and RXV motorcycles have been conceived and designed for race-track and off-road competitions.

As a result, they meet the rules and class requirements currently adopted by major international motorcycling associations.

The RXV model has been specifically designed for off-road endurance racing (enduro) and not mainly for motorcrossing.

Having the motorcycle serviced at the recommended intervals as specified in the maintenance charts provided in this manual is critical to avoiding

premature wear and severe failures. To preserve motorcycle performance and avoid severe damage, have the recommended maintenance procedures

performed by Authorised Aprilia Dealers or Service Centres or - at the track - by a qualified mechanic.

The SXV and RXV come in a derated version which can be legally used on public roads and is covered by a legal warranty. In order to maintain the

warranty, the recommended maintenance must be performed at the specified intervals by Authorised Aprilia Dealers or Service Centres and each

service must be recorded in the warranty booklet.

Please note that these motorcycles are not suitable for road use. Gear ratios, cooling system, suspension set-up, braking system and engine power

delivery are designed and tuned up for racing, and the operating conditions encountered in competitions differ greatly from those experienced when

riding on public roads.

Below is a short non-exhaustive list of typical operating conditions that may lead to severe engine damage: long stops at traffic lights, motorway trips with

the engine steadily running at maximum rpm, or drafting vehicles.
