Thanks mate for great advise will sort it all out asap! Will be nice to sort it out will probably send the bike for a service soon. Just to keep it running nicley reli like the bike is gd fun to ride. many Thanks Henry

Dont worry i havent done anything i was waiting for the reply thanks for the advise. So do i have to top the oil up? and if so i am having trouble finding where to do so? Many Thanks Henry

I have finally got round to doing the engine oil the bike is in bits! and have i think found the oil fill cap? if i was standing behind the bike looking on to the engine is the cap on the right bellow the exhaust system? and the oil used would it be standard 2 stroke engine oil? Sorry to ask more questions just want to get it rite. Many Thanks Henry

I was just wondering how you would change the engines oil in an Aprilia 280 i cant seem to see how to do so and was wondering whether some one could give me some advise? Thanks Henry

cheers mate no i am not that fat just big its ok but just bottoms out on the odd ocasion shud be fine i think its more to do with the suspension getting well used!! yer will check the metal cheers Henry

I have just striped down my aprilia 280 climber 1992. There is a little bit of welding that needs to be done on the frame were the mudgaurd mount is, i was just wondering what the frame would be made of i would say steel but just wanted to ask to make sure? Also i need to stifen the suspension up because i am a big lad and the supspension keeps bottoming out and hiting the mudgaurd, i was wondering if i could have some advice on how to adjust this? There is a standard pump valve on it (the usual car tyre size) and i was wondering can this be pumped up with a standard pump or do i need a specialist? I would be greatful for anyother advice on little jobs i could do wast the bike is in bits?? Many Thanks Henry

Go for 20" really nice bikes and beacuse they are smaller there easyer to hope around on!! Thats what i have i love using it!! I wouldnt think that size mattered to much but ur best trying one out first if u havent riden for a bit!! Thanks Henry

Many thanks for the help its now sorted!! Henry

My bike needs a new set of brake pads font and back (Aprilia climber 280 r) how easy is it to do and can any one give me any tips? or is there a video on youtube atall on fitting brake pads i have found loads for road bike on there but is this the same as a trials nike? I have also had to bleed all brake fluid out of the back brake does this make a diffrence and i have the fluid to fill it back up!! Many Thanks Henry

Many thanks for all the great advice and thoughts for this bike!! I am loving my bike at the moment the power is just imence!! Thanks Henry

I think its a briliant bike wouldnt change for anything! The power is great can climb a mountain with no problem. I was looking for a new air filter in great need of one the old one is falling to bits, and i am shore there will be more bits needed for the bike as i ride it more and more!! Many thanks for the reply!! Henry

I have an aprilia climber and from what i have found i belive they are very underated bikes. i am having great trouble finding parts for the bike and can just about find the basics. i also have found it very hard to find find web information on these bike? If you own or even if you dont and have heard about this bike what are your opinions of it??? Thanks Henry

I have a hardcore trials 20" trials bike been riding for years and have only just got back into it properley!!! Thanks Henry

They look very nice just had a look on the web!!!!! Thanks Henry

I was just thinking i do and thought that after riding a motorbike going back to a small pedal bike is realy diffrent and u feel a great weigh diffrence as expected and this gives u that extra ability to hope around much easyer!! Do any of you agree???? Thanks Henry
