    Hi Guys, Really could use some suggestions here. I am based in New Zealand and as far as I can tell Aprilia never imported trials bikes here. So, no parts supplier. Can any one suggest a dealer or supplier I could use to get parts? Cheers Iain

    Ive got the chance of aTX311M but don't know a lot about them. I was after a air cooled mono for our clubs pre 90 route and was after a Fantic but the Aprilia has been offered me. Can I get parts for the Rotax motor ok and are there any known problems with them as this bike has a issue with the kickstarter. Thanks

    Hi all I have two Climber 240 (91 and 92) in Japan. I am in the middle of my change the front fork oil project. I have some questions. 1. Oil level measurement (mm?) from the top of fork edge? 2. How much does each fork needs the oil (Aprilia manufacturer’s recommended ) 3. Recommended degree of viscosity. (or fork oil model number・part number) I don’t have a service manual of Climber... regards, Teru

    Hi all, I was out with the Climber a week ago and it ran fine for an hour but then when it was on tick over just stoped and didn´t start again. Back home I have been tracing the problem and have tried or rather changed the carb, plug, plug cap, kill switch, and the black box under the tank. I have now found out that when the plug is out and its turned over there is no spark the most of the time unless you turn the engine over a lot faster then the spark apears again. It´s not possible to kick it over this fast with the plug in and it just fires up very very ocaisionaly for a couple of beats now and again. I´m thinking that it´s in the stator plate…

    Hi I am new to this, Last time I rode a trails bike was 1972, I found a nice old Aprilia 311 in good shape. Just a few questions to start, What fuel mix should I run in the bike? Is there anyplace in the Us that has any parts? I started it on a 50 to 1 mix seemed to run ritch, but everything seemed fine. There is also a engine compression adjustment device on the front of the engine, I have never seen one? Thanks for the help, Mark

    Hello fellow climber owners, Have been doing one up over the last year or so (full strip down) and now fully built . It starts OK and runs OK so decided to take it out the other weekend (to relive my younger days as trials rider !). After about 30 mins one of the water pipes started leaking hot water (couldn't see where) and notest the fan wasn't working, so off to the van and home. Had a look the other day and tried putting a 6 volt battery over the fan and to my delight the fan spun up. So next was the fan switch and once it was removed tried to test it by seeing if it earthed out ie. single pin to body of switch, in boiling wate…

    I am new to the group, and own a climber 240. I am having trouble with the install of the kickstart return spring assembly. Is there someone who can help me with this? I am not sure how the retaining bolt on the bottom of the motor holds anything? I assemble the clutch cover only to start the motor and have the kickstart gear click against the clutch gear once the return spring pushes its gear out against it...... is there a utube on the install? defeated......
