"You may lose a touch of oil, it's not going to pour out" . . . . . Yea, I had a nice puddle of oil on the floor :D
Not been out for a ride since I've just fitted it, but in the garage, it went up and down the gears and back into neutral perfectly. Can't believe something so tiny can make a difference like that.
No way... seriously all those years of crappy neutrals is this easily fixed.... online order coming your way tonight for 2x units.. cheers guys
Did it fix it??
Nice one Griff, once again saving the day. Mine was dragging so badly neutral impossible and on the paddock stand only hard rear brake would stop the wheel spinning with the lever in.
Of course fully bled with better fluid, lever adjusted etc. No difference. The #40 jet fixed it. Nicer shifting, neutral easy (up or down) and no dragging. Who'd have thunk a poxy jet was causing all the issues.
AP Workshops 👌THANK YOU
Oh look... An AP Workshops video! then watches. Thanks Griff and team for putting these videos together. They're most helpful for those of us across the pond who must work on their own Aprilias.
Seems my screwdriver went in a bit further and I'm having the dickens of a time getting my old jet out.
Got it! Much better now! Used a bamboo skewer and gave it a good tap then it seated in the old jet. The problem was the old jet was bumping on the sides of the hole and coming off my "cocktail" stick.
Took the bamboo skewer and ran it through a pencil sharpener to give it a bit more of a tip not too much mind you, I did not want it snapping off in the old jet.
The bamboo is a bit sturdier than the cocktail stick which also assisted in securing a good seating in the old jet.
Thanks Griff for the part and video post it helped a lot.
To prevent stripping the thread on reinstalling you should really turn it backwards until it clicks over the thread and then you know you can screw in without crossing the thread up.
Good tip! 👍
No shit sherlock
Great man always got time to email back when you ask a technical question 👍
This was inspiring, and I couldn't wait to try it on my '07 Tuono. However, when I got the screw out, I couldn't detect a jet in there; couldn't feel it with my screwdriver, and saw no hint of brass when I looked with my flashlight. This is an 05/06 bike.

Nice one griff I have this problem, soon to be rectified thanks 👍
Griff, been a while but showing Love from Japan and saying keep up the good work with you and your team. Just got done watching “chasing tenths” newest video and have a request for us wrench turners.
Request that you and your team please go over suspension set up front and back for RSV4, since there are difference between suspension components since my 11’ to 20’. General considerations what setup should be with and without weight and wear issues you have seen and what owners are missing. Thank You Again.
What does the oil jet do?
How does it work in the engine?
What is it's purpose?
a question, my jet is already 0.40 but I have problems getting neutral and engaging 1st gear gives a real big "crack", can I try 0.30 ?
Same here its annoying
brilliant, thanks a lot
Does Dorsoduro also have a clutch jet?
Thank you Griff. Will this work on my Shiver as well?
Hi Griff, cheers for the vid :) never knew there was a clutch jet...!
but could you please put me out of my misery and let us know what the correct size screwdriver you used to remove it. :)
Cheers in advance :)
Looks like a 4mm wide with a thin blade, like those electricians screwdrivers that seem to be thinner than “normal” flat blade screwdrivers. 🤔😀
AP please any tips or advice would be helpful , So what happens if you strip it or it’s stuck and absolutely won’t come out
I can see it but I can't get the blighter out! So frustrating, any ideas other than cocktail sticks or skewers, I've already failed with them 😮
I need help on this regard. After have the neutral problem in my Aprilia. I decided move to OE discs. After that change the neutral problem was fixed. After that I feel second gear engage to rough like a Harley. Should I look on the jet size for smaller size?
Who knew it was so easy? Next job for me.
Did I say easy! Spoke too soon. I can't withdraw the jet on the cocktail stick. Poking around for ages, but it wont locate in the jet hole, is there another technique?
Got it, but needed to use a needle and pliers to exert enough pressure to get the tip to grip.
hello yesterday riding with my 2000 Aprilia RSV, exiting the corner after acceleration, I pull the clutch to change the gear and suddenly I found myself without a clutch, I bleed but nothing, but I realized that the clutch pump has a broken dust grommet, I disassembled it and there was no sigel but the piston is held by this grommet, is it possible that this is the cause of the clutch loss?
How dos this work, can someone explain please?
So what happens if you strip it or it’s stuck and absolutely won’t come out
same issue here , AP any tip or suggestions ? Please help
You mentioned this for V2 up to 2006/7. Did they start using the different clutch jet on their V2 for 2008?
Yes they did!! 👍🏻
@@APWorkshops Thanks!
What size is your screwdriver?
The lower number on the clutch jet ? Does that mean a bigger hole ,to allow more oil ? I have an 08 and when hot the gear change is less than perfect as is finding neutral but will some gentle caressing it still works well enough but i would like to know if it's normal or if i am missing something which will improve it?
Pull the clutch jet and check it Steve.... it’s worth a look !!
Is there a similar fix for Gen 2’s?
Kevin Doogan yes it is the same
so this wont solve the problem on a 2000 year engine?
Part number is AP0268751 apparently.
11nm is 97 in. lb. for those that use REAL numbers.
🤣 Just don't try and take it our with a rock.
