To shift down, proceed as follows:
Release the throttle grip (2) (Pos.A).
If necessary, pull the brake levers
moderately and decrease the speed of
the vehicle.
Pull the clutch lever (3) and lower the
shifting lever (4) to shift down.
If the brake levers are pulled, release
them.
Release the clutch lever and accelerate
moderately.

CAUTION
If a temperature of 126 – 135 °C (259 –
275 °F) is displayed on the right side of
the multifunction display and the last
two segments of the indicator range
blink, stop the vehicle and let the
engine idle for approximately two
minutes, thus allowing the coolant to
circulate regularly in the system; then,
press the engine stop switch to position
"?" and check the coolant level, see p.

If the diagnostic warning light LED
"EFI" on the dashboard starts blinking
during the normal operation of the
engine, this means that the electronic
unit has detected an anomaly.
In many cases, the engine keeps
running with reduced performance
levels; immediately contact an aprilia
Official Dealer.
To avoid the overheating of the clutch,
keep the engine running with vehicle at
rest, engaged gears and pulled clutch
lever for the shortest possible time.
Avoid opening and closing the throttle
grip repeatedly and continuously, so
that you do not accidentally lose control
of the vehicle. If you have to brake,
close the throttle and put on both
brakes in order to obtain uniform
d e c e l e r a t i o n , p r o p e r l y e x e r t i n g
pressure on the braking parts.
By putting on the front brake only or the
rear brake only, you reduce the braking
force considerably, thus running the

If you stop uphill, decelerate completely
and use the brakes only to keep the
vehicle steady.

Before beginning to turn, slow down or
brake driving at moderate and constant
speed or accelerating slightly; avoid
braking at the last moment: it would be
very easy to skid.
If the brakes are operated continuously
on downhill stretches, the friction
surfaces may overheat, thus reducing
the braking efficiency. Exploit the
engine compression and shift down by
putting on both brakes intermittently.
Never drive downhill with the engine
off!
When visibility is insufficient, switch on
the low beam even during the day, in
order to make your vehicle more visible.
In case of wet ground or scarce wheel
