What would be the disadvantages of riding an SXV with RXV wheels suspension and breaks off road?

not much, tuning would be more street oriented, cams are different, you'd need different triple clamps if youre going with smaller forks like the rxv has

@@Foredore I have, didn’t know they where smaller though, just thought they would be more squishy. Why is this more advantageous? Also got rxv rear suspension, although previous owner used the sxv because of weight. I’m 100kg. Do you use the sxv spring in your rxv?

Greetings fellow Ontarian & Aprilia owner. I have an 08 SXV450 that just came out of storage after sitting for a year. It has 6400km’s on it. Any possibility of a video call to diagnose & tell me what I’m looking at? I’d appreciate an experienced set of eyes before I take it to a dealer. . .

Whats wrong with it? Never take these to a dealer, best help is from the forum or facebook groups.

@@Foredore what’s wrong is my complete lack of experience with an engine like this. LOL I’ve gotten back to reading the forum after a year 2 hiatus. It’s just a lot to go through. And I’m pretty sure I’m on the Facebook groups too. It’s running kosher for the most part. Doesn’t like low rpm’s or short shifting. The air filter looked pretty clean when I checked it last night. Definitely needs a a fluid change; Brakes & oil, possibly coolant. Hasn’t been changed since I bought it 2 years ago. But I also have risen it much

@MandaloreOurLeader sounds like its fine, some good new fluid should help a good bit. Watch my oil change video, and for the coolant, drain it at the water pump, tip over, and i just use standard 50 50 premix, but you can use anything else that won't freeze in our winters

@@Foredoredefinitely need to watch the oil change video a 3rd time. Bike also needs new rubber. Do I stick with a 180 rear or look for a 165-160?

@MandaloreOurLeader i like the 180, just a smoother ride, but it might be a stretch for a 160 because of the 5.5 inch wide rim, most 160 tires are to fit a 5 inch rim
