Carbon monoxide

If you need to keep the engine running in order to carry out any procedure, please ensure that you do

so in an open or very well ventilated area. Never let the engine run in an enclosed area. If you do work

in an enclosed area, make sure to use a smoke-extraction system.

Fuel

CAUTION

FUEL USED TO POWER INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE AND CAN

BECOME EXPLOSIVE UNDER SPECIFIC CONDITIONS. IT IS THEREFORE RECOMMENDED TO

CARRY OUT REFUELLING AND MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES IN A VENTILATED AREA WITH

THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. DO NOT SMOKE DURING REFUELLING AND NEAR FUEL VAPOURS,

AVOID ANY CONTACT WITH NAKED FLAMES, SPARKS OR OTHER SOURCES WHICH MAY

CAUSE THEM TO IGNITE OR EXPLODE.

DO NOT DISPOSE OF FUEL INTO THE ENVIRONMENT.

Hot components

The engine and the exhaust system components get very hot and remain in this condition for a certain

time interval after the engine has been shut off. Before handling these components, make sure that you

are wearing insulating gloves or wait until the engine and the exhaust system have cooled down.

Coolant

The coolant contains ethylene glycol which, under certain conditions, can become flammable.

When it burns, ethylene glycol produces an invisible flame which however can cause burns.

CAUTION

TAKE CARE NOT TO POUR COOLANT ONTO HOT ENGINE OR EXHAUST SYSTEM COMPO-

NENTS; THE FLUID MAY CATCH FIRE AND BURN WITH INVISIBLE FLAMES. WHEN CARRYING

OUT MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS, IT IS ADVISABLE TO WEAR LATEX GLOVES. EVEN

THOUGH IT IS TOXIC, COOLANT HAS A SWEET FLAVOUR WHICH MAKES IT VERY ATTRAC-

TIVE TO ANIMALS. NEVER LEAVE THE COOLANT IN OPEN CONTAINERS IN AREAS ACCES-

SIBLE TO ANIMALS AS THEY MAY DRINK IT.

BRAKE AND CLUTCH FLUIDS CAN DAMAGE PLASTIC OR RUBBER PAINTED SURFACES.

WHEN SERVICING THE BRAKING OR THE CLUTCH SYSTEM PROTECT THESE COMPONENTS

WITH A CLEAN CLOTH. ALWAYS WEAR PROTECTIVE GOGGLES WHEN SERVICING THE SYS-

TEMS. BRAKE AND CLUTCH FLUIDS ARE EXTREMELY HARMFUL FOR YOUR EYES. IN THE

EVENT OF ACCIDENTAL CONTACT WITH THE EYES, RINSE THEM IMMEDIATELY WITH ABUN-

DANT COLD, CLEAN WATER AND SEEK MEDICAL ADVICE IMMEDIATELY.

KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN

Battery electrolyte and hydrogen gas

CAUTION

BATTERY ELECTROLYTE IS TOXIC, CORROSIVE AND AS IT CONTAINS SULPHURIC ACID, IT

CAN CAUSE BURNS WHEN IN CONTACT WITH THE SKIN. WHEN HANDLING BATTERY ELEC-

TROLYTE, WEAR TIGHT-FITTING GLOVES AND PROTECTIVE APPAREL. IF THE ELECTRO-

LYTIC FLUID COMES INTO CONTACT WITH THE SKIN, RINSE WELL WITH ABUNDANT FRESH

WATER. IT IS PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT TO PROTECT YOUR EYES AS EVEN TINY

AMOUNTS OF BATTERY ACID MAY CAUSE BLINDNESS. IF THE FLUID GETS INTO CONTACT

WITH YOUR EYES, WASH WITH ABUNDANT WATER FOR FIFTEEN MINUTES AND CONSULT

AN EYE SPECIALIST IMMEDIATELY. IF THE FLUID IS ACCIDENTALLY SWALLOWED, DRINK

LARGE QUANTITIES OF WATER OR MILK, FOLLOWED BY MILK OF MAGNESIA OR VEGETA-

BLE OIL AND SEEK MEDICAL ADVICE IMMEDIATELY. THE BATTERY RELEASES EXPLOSIVE

GASES; KEEP IT AWAY FROM FLAMES, SPARKS, CIGARETTES OR ANY OTHER HEAT

SOURCE. ENSURE ADEQUATE VENTILATION WHEN SERVICING OR RECHARGING THE BAT-

TERY.

KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN

BATTERY LIQUID IS CORROSIVE. DO NOT POUR OR SPILL IT, PARTICULARLY ON PLASTIC

COMPONENTS. ENSURE THAT THE ELECTROLYTIC ACID IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE BAT-

TERY TO BE ACTIVATED.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS AND INFORMATION

Characteristics DORSODURO

CHAR - 8

When repairing, dismantling and reassembling the vehicle follow the recommendations reported below

carefully.

BEFORE DISASSEMBLING COMPONENTS

•Beforedismantling components, remove dirt, mud, dust and foreign bodies from the vehicle.

Use the special tools designed for this bike, as required.

COMPONENTS REMOVAL

•Do not loosen and/or tighten screws and nuts using pliers or other tools other than the

especially designed wrench.

•Mark positions on all connection joints (pipes, cables, etc.) before separating them, and

identify them with distinctive symbols.

•Each component needs to be clearly marked in order to be identified during assembly.

•Clean and wash the removed components carefully using a low-flammability detergent.

•Keep coupled parts together since they have "adjusted" to each other due to normal wear

and tear.

•Some components must be used together or replaced altogether.

•Keep away from heat sources.

REASSEMBLING COMPONENTS

CAUTION

BEARINGS MUST BE ABLE TO ROTATE FREELY, WITHOUT JAMMING AND/OR NOISE, OTH-

ERWISE THEY NEED REPLACING.

•Only use ORIGINAL APRILIA SPARE PARTS.

•Comply with lubricant and consumables use guidelines.

•Lubricate parts (whenever possible) before reassembling them.

•When tightening nuts and screws, start from the ones with the largest section or from the

internal ones, moving diagonally. Tighten nuts and screws in successive steps before ap-

plying the tightening torque.

•Always replace self-locking nuts, washers, sealing rings, circlips, O-rings (OR), split pins

and screws with new ones if their tread is damaged.

•When assembling the bearings, make sure to lubricate them well.

•Check that each component is assembled correctly.

•After a repair or routine maintenance procedure, carry out pre-ride checks and test the ve-

hicle on private grounds or in an area with low traffic density.

•Clean all coupling surfaces, oil guard rims and gaskets before refitting them. Smear a light

layer of lithium-based grease on the oil guard rims. Reassemble oil guards and bearings

with the brand or lot number facing outward (visible side).

ELECTRIC CONNECTORS

Electric connectors must be disconnected as described below as non-compliance with the procedure

so described causes irreparable damage to both the connector and the cable harness:

DORSODURO Characteristics

CHAR - 9

Press the relevant safety hooks, if any.

•Grip the two connectors and disconnect them by pulling them in opposite directions.

•Ifthereare signs of dirt, rust, humidity, etc.,cleantheconnector internal parts carefully using

a pressurised air jet.

•Make sure that the cables are correctly linked to the connector internal terminal ends.

•Then insert the two connectors making sure that they couple correctly (if the relevant hooks

are provided, you will hear them "click" into place).

CAUTION

TO DISCONNECT THE TWO CONNECTORS, DO NOT PULL THE CABLES.

NOTE

THE TWO CONNECTORS CONNECT ONLY FROM ONE SIDE: CONNECT THEM THE RIGHT WAY

ROUND.

TIGHTENING TORQUE

CAUTION

DO NOT FORGET THAT THE TIGHTENING TORQUE OF ALL FASTENING ELEMENTS ON

WHEELS, BRAKES, WHEEL SPINDLES AND OTHER SUSPENSION COMPONENTS PLAY A KEY

ROLE IN ENSURING THE VEHICLE'S SAFETY AND MUST COMPLY WITH SPECIFIED VALUES.

CHECK THE TIGHTENING TORQUE OF FASTENING PARTS ON A REGULAR BASIS AND AL-

WAYS USE A TORQUE WRENCH TO REASSEMBLE THESE COMPONENTS. FAILURE TO COM-

PLY WITH THESE RECOMMENDATIONS MAY CAUSE ONE OF THESE COMPONENTS TO GET

LOOSE AND EVEN DETACHED, THUS BLOCKING A WHEEL, OR OTHERWISE COMPROMISE

VEHICLE HANDLING. THIS CAN LEAD TO FALLS, WITH THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR

DEATH.

Running-in

Running the engine in is essential to ensure engine durability and correct operation. Twisty roads and

gradients are ideal to run in engine, brakes and suspensions effectively. Vary your riding speed when

running in. This ensures that components operate under both "loaded" and "unloaded" conditions, al-

lowing the engine components to cool.

CAUTION

ONLY AFTER THE SERVICE AT THE END OF THE RUN-IN PERIOD CAN THE BEST PERFORM-

ANCE OF YOUR VEHICLE BE OBTAINED.

Follow the guidelines detailed below:

•Do not twist the throttle grip abruptly and completely when the engine is working at a low

revs, either during or after run-in.

•During the first 100 Km (62 miles) use the brakes gently, avoiding sudden or prolonged

braking. That is to permit the adequate adjustment of the pad friction material to the brake

discs.

AFTER THE SPECIFIED MILEAGE, TAKE YOUR VEHICLE TO AN Official aprilia Dealer FOR THE

CHECKS INDICATED IN THE "AFTER-RUN-IN" TABLE IN THE SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE

SECTION TO AVOID INJURING YOURSELF, OTHERS AND /OR DAMAGING THE VEHICLE.
