Aprilia

US/Canada would be ideal (I'm in Canada) but open to anywhere. TIA

I recommissioned a climber 280 a few months back, and it starts and runs ok. I'm more into enduro and figure the climber would be fun for some lite enduro as i'm too old to start learning how to ride over cars etc I'm concerned about snapping the kick start off, the compression is fierce, and the motor too. i'd be happy to tone it down a bit and i think people have done this in the past. My neighbour has suggested make a plate form 3mm copper to go in between the head and the barrel. the water channels and O'rings make this a bit of a challenge. has anyone else done this, or know how it was done in the day ?

Hi All, Anybody have the bearing part number or specs for the spherical jobbie in the lower shock mount? I pretty sure its a 90 280cc.

A guy at our club asked me about testing the cooling fan on his 92 Aprila. I haven't seen the bike but he says there are three wires going into the fan and a single wire thermal switch. What is the best means to check if his fan is working? Can you direct me to a electrical schematic or tell me which wires to jumper across? Thanks for the help.

Anybody know which throttle and which carb was std fitment on a 1992 - 1994 240/280 ?

Hi there does anybody know if a 1993 climber 280 has got a nikasil plated bore.

Does anyone out there know what jetting there running in the Dellorto carb. I've got a 85 main and bike seems to load up and run rich over half throttle. Have gone thru carb, and have points and timing set correctly. Bike starts first kick runs great on bottom but loads up when you need to ring it out on a uphill section. Plug is dark. Just don't want to burn up the motor.

Looking at getting a 93 Aprilia 280R Climber. Are there any flywheel weights available or will I need to machine something? How is the parts availability? I had a 92 and liked it a lot!

Hi, I have an aprilia TX 300 with the engine block (crankcase and clutch) of an aprilia climber. Bring the original air-cooled cylinder. I would like to leave the clutch softer and I am looking for some docks to make it softer. Being a rotax engine may be worth the other models. Can someone help me? I will be very grateful. Thank you very much. Narciso

can anyone help me out,ive a 280 climber and the big end bearing has gone,i only need the bearing and not the full con rod kit,as this is to buy

I was just wondering how high everyone runs their fork tubes in the triple tree ( yoke, steering stem , whatever you want to call it) upper clamps. I had mine flush since I've owned it ( a year) but have been wondering if lowering would give smoother steering, easier balance etc. Thanks for any opinions.

Any idea what the fuel mix is on a 280r

Hello everyone! Im new to this forum but excited to join. I'm planning on putting a new con rod bottom bearing into my 92' climber, but i have a few questions to those who are familiar with the bike. Looking to confirm some questions as well! thanks for any and all tips and information! much appreciated 1. Whats the best way to get the clutch nut off? the just spins freely with the screw mounts behind the pressure plate. It's on there good.. will a vice grip clutch tool do the job? 2. What are the measurements for the flywheel puller? 3. Anyone know the measurements or size for the bottom connecting rod bearing? i know the top, just not the bottom one. …

Anyone have a source for these in the USA? PN 932 501 -- Ball Bearing Mag Side 6206 TNH C3 and PN 232 750 -- Ball Bearing Clutch Side 3205 C3 and PN 932 904 -- Needle Cage Bearing 18mm x 22mm x 22mm Would also like to find breaker points and condenser. Any leads or substitutions would be appreciated . Trying to get this ready for Vintage this spring. I can find 6206 C3 bearings, but not with the TNH which I think is a poly race or retainer. Thanks, Dave
