Raptor Chapter

Hi, I am currently building back up my engine and gearbox and have a slight dilemma, the two gearshift fork shafts are different (one is hollow and the other solid) and I have mixed them up, they are the same diameters and lengths so will fit either way around but as they are different part numbers ...

PM'd you

Hi, could I have it please?

Hi, the TL manuals are on the 'carlsalter.com' website

Good point, just downloaded one, looks the business

Thanks for the replies guys, the pictures will suffice just would have been nice if there was a complete English version. Have got the engine half stripped today should complete it tomorrow then after a good clean and inspection its off to have all the cases etc vapour blasted.

Hi, long time since I've posted on here, still have my v raptor which has been laid up for a good few years. Does anyone have a full english workshop manual for the 1000 engine? I have a copy of the one posted in the google docs but this turns to Italian part way through the engine strip.

Thanks for the replies but I don't think I explained myself properly, I should have said crankcase cover (clutch side), on the SV it is a one piece affair not like on the Raptor and TL which is two piece having a seperate clutch cover so if it would fit it would eliminate the leak problem.

Does any know whether or not the clutch casing from an SV1000 will fit on my V Rap, I am fed up of trying to seal the leaking clutch cover so would like to try and fit the one piece unit from an SV?

I changed my adjusters a few years back due to a badly corroded and snapped bolt , got some second ones off ebay, can't remember them being handed though I'm sure they fit either side.

One from an early Aprilia Mille, Falco etc are the same

Hi there Does anyone know where i can get a key blank for a 650 raptor 2001, only 1 with the bike and its a bit bent...... cheers Darren If you have the key number then you should be able to get some made from one of the company's that used to advertise in the MCN, failing that any 'reputable' lock...

Can anyone recommend a matching colour for the engines side cases as I need to either repair and paint my existing clutch cover or paint and fit a (currently black) suzuki one

Ahhh... dodgy front plug lead is a favourite, liberal amounts of WD40 or spray of choice might help. also prone to water in fuel if the little drain hole in the filler is blocked? I agree with shebee, I haven't had the front plug problem (although it sounds favourite) but I have had the water in th...

Mivv do, or used to do, a nice range for the raps
