oh i have the right size tool - did my own clutch jet after all, but cannot shift hanna's...

having said that the previous owner was a gorilla - i know i am going to end up helicoiling some of his work....


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Obvious one to check if you're still struggling to find neutral after going to a jet .40 ... Chain tension!

You could - or any other Aprilia dealer ..... or put the trade Griff's way at Aprilia Performance

griff - aprilia performance - was the tech director for aprilia UK

so - knows his stuff :)

if you need a service or tune up - a visit to tamworth is a very good idea

I will admit to being biased though - we are friends - nice guy for a ginger
