APRILIA RSV4 DIY FIRST SERVICE (Oil Change, Torque Specs, Chain Adjustment, etc.)

How to perform your first service (1000 km/621 mile) at home if you either don't have reasonable access to a dealer or just don't trust your local dealer. We will look at the Aprilia RSV4 official service manual and what is required for the first service.

For those who have worked in the automotive repair industry, we know that many dealers do not perform the services promised and sometimes doing it yourself is the best way to care for your vehicle.
