APRILIA RSV 1000 Clutch Cover Gasket Diaphragm replacement

[@andreacassani5858]

Thanks for the instructive video! Do you have to drain the oil prior to do this?

[@rinkia]

Hello, it's not necessary. Maybe a little leaking will occure, but few drops. Ma proprio un'inezia

[@Bruceyy_93]

I know it's an old video but what were the torques on the 8 M5 hex bolts holding the clutch cover on? Cheers

[@rinkia]

I gave a look to the manual. According to the specs ( 3.3.4) they are M6 bolts. Recommended torque 11 Nm. I will check asap if it's wrong

Hello there , saw you wipe the gasket/Diphrgram with somthing. Was that oil ?brake cleaner ?🤔🤓thnx in advance

[@rinkia]

Hello. It was a dry tissue. The diaphragm could incur in damages so i cleaned it for future inspections

[@matthewvital9847]

I have the same bike. just wondering why you needed to replace your diaphragm?

[@rinkia]

There was a minor oil leaking and i thought a damage occurred. Finally i found some screws problems. Once opened i replaced thenpart. Unfortunately now i have the same problem from the oil filter carter.....
