Hi I have just bought a 1993/4 ish climber as a non runner. Some one has been in at the disc valve which was out, but I have set it as per the www.rotax.co.uk uk parts list instructions (I think). The previous owner has apparently changed the piston and rings due to low compression. The bike now has very strong compression maybe a little more than I would expect. I have checked over the carb and this looks to be set up just about right. 105 main jet and needle clip second from the bottom. I have tried the old squirt wd40 in the carb mouth to get over any carb problems. (I know this sounds a bit daft but its worked for me as an indicator for many years) This…

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

I just acquired cheaply a bike the seller says is a 1991 Climber 260. Its needs a few bits and apart from ebay where else is best for info on these ? I need:- spark plug carb seat tank Seat and tank for 280s are cheap enough on ebay, will the 280 stuff fit a 260 (if indeed it is) ? What make and model is the carb ? Whats the recommend premix, like a 40:1 with a decent synth 2 stroke oil ? I figure this bike will be some fun in addition to the ensure bikes I have.

Hi all, I'm new to this forum and god am I glad to have found it! Last week I bought an Aprilia TXR311 air cooled. Nice tidy bike, bought it for a good price as a "reluctant starter" Saw it running and rode it on the day, apart from the clutch slipping a little and being a bit rich all was well. Got it home and set about kicking it over with no joy, went through all the obvious checks, it has a very good spark, so much compresion I can put all my weight on the kickstart, fresh fuel, and after taking out the dirty partially collapsed filter it's getting air. In my book it should run, even if it's rough and needing tuning. 4 hours of kicking, towing behind a car, changi…

Hi guys, new member here does any body out there know the correct fork oil level for a 1988 Aprilia txr 312 thanks.

Would someone do me a favour and measure the thickness of the spacers that go between the sump guard and the frame at the front. Thanks Ross

hello, My bike is, aprilia climber 240(1994) is spills oil from the gear/kickstart shaft, i think it spills it form between, what could it be? the other problem is that the gear shaft dislcoates from its place when applying little force on it towards the outside when trying to remove. please help! thankyou jose

whats one of these worth on a 1991? its actually in really good condition and the motors sounds good. by the look of it ,it hasnt done much at all and the bloke wants rid, but i dont know what to offer. any ideas?

Hi all, I recently picked up an old '94 Climber 280 for pretty cheap. As such, it's needed a fair amount of work. As you all already know, information on these bikes seems to be pretty scarce. I just finished rebuilding the forks, but I am unsure as to how much fork oil to refill them with; any recommendations? Also, I heard that 5-7.5W is probably correct; does that sound right? If anyone has a good line on where to buy parts for these bikes, I would really appreciate it. I made an air filter and rear brake clevis, but would rather buy the correct parts. Thanks, Nick

Hi. Has anyone got a water pump to rad to header tank hose for sale. Thanks

Hello, i have a pair of aprilia TRX311 forks ans would likt to service them. anyone knows where to get parts for them? what oil do they need and how much? Kind regards Bob

Hi all, I'm trying to find a replacement rear disc (ideally new) for my 93 Climber, anyone any ideas? I've tried EBC and no luck so far. Did Aprilia use the disc on any other models. Nothing showing on e'Bay at the moment either. Thanks Dunc

Im looking to buy a flywheel puller for a 1990 climber Ive just bought. I cant find a specific one on ebay but a bosch rotax one is available. It is a internal thread of 35mm x 1.5. Any ideas if this is the right one. Thanks

I’m working on a 1993 Climber that has a tubeless rear wheel. The tire I received with the bike is tube type. Can I use this tire with tube? Would probably have to use a rim lock. Or should I buy a tubeless tire and valve stem or tube? Thanks

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......

I've just bought a 1990 240 climber. The previous owner had a "throttle stuck open" moment before a tumble. He can't recall hooking the cable,is this a fault with a secondhand model? I'd also like to obtain a manual and spares in UK,is there a good dealer for these older bikes? Thanks

Hi All, does anyone have any idea what these are worth? are there any big issues with them? its a 92 , all there , all works as is should, needs a rear tyre (dont they all!) looks in better nick than a lot of 2002 bikes i have seen. any info at all cheers paul
