Part: Clutch
Replacing the clutch pump oil in the Aprilia Rsv 1000.

To replace the clutch hydraulic oil (but the procedure is also good for the brake hydraulic oil) in the Aprilia Rsv 1000, the operations to be carried out are quite simple. First, we must unscrew the oil tank cap (in the video images, we can see how, in the illustrated case Dot4, the oil is clearly exhausted due to the thermal stress it has suffered and the time it has). Now, let's locate the clutch actuator and find the clutch bleed screw itself. We remove the dirt guard, rubber, of the same and connect a rubber hose to avoid soiling. We start pumping with the clutch lever and, after 2-3 times, we keep it pressed. We unscrew the bleed dowel and continue pumping to eliminate the oil. We are careful not to empty the entire system as, subsequently, we should also bleed the air system. During this operation, we continue to pour new oil into the tank and pump with the clutch lever. This is carried out until the oil, which comes out of the drain, is clear, of a different color from the exhausted one. At the end of the operation, we fill the system with oil and continue, for a while, with the purging (at least 2-3 times) to avoid any presence of air. Once finished, we reassemble everything and that's it.

How do you change the engine oil of the Beta Xtrainer 300?

In order to replace the Beta Xtrainer 300 engine oil, you need to loosen the screws that secure the skid plate positioned in the lower part of the bike. Once it has been removed, it will be possible to access the components in the lower part, including the oil drain plug. This will have to be unscrewed in order to collect the used oil inside a suitably positioned container. It will also be possible to replace the oil filter and finally re-fit the skid plate. Finally, it will be possible to top up from the special vent on the right side of the bike.
