Frequently Asked Questions - Sportcity Cube 200 (2008) APRILIA

What type of fuel does the Aprilia Sportcity Cube 200 require?

Use only premium unleaded petrol with a minimum octane rating of 95 (NORM) and 85 (NOMM). Do not use leaded fuel.

How to start the engine after a long period of inactivity?

Press the starter button for about ten seconds. If the engine does not start, wait a few seconds and repeat. Ensure the fuel supply circuit is full; if necessary, follow the flooded engine procedure: twist the throttle fully open while pressing the starter for a few seconds.

How to check and top up engine oil?

Rest the scooter on its centre stand on level ground. Stop the engine and let it cool. Unscrew the oil cap/dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert fully, then remove and read the level. It should be near the MAX mark. Top-up if needed, using AGIP RACING 4T 10W-40 or equivalent. Consult an Official Aprilia Dealer for oil changes.

How to adjust the rear shock absorber preload?

Use the supplied hook spanner on the ring nut. Turn in direction A to increase spring preload (harder suspension), suitable for riding with passenger or on even roads. Turn in direction B to decrease preload (softer suspension), for uneven roads or solo riding.

What is the correct tire pressure and tread depth?

Frequently check tire pressure when cold. Minimum tread depth is 2 mm for both front and rear. Use tubeless tires only.

How to replace a blown fuse?

Turn the ignition off. Remove the battery compartment cover. Extract the fuse and check the filament. Replace with a fuse of the same amperage (7.5A, 15A, or 20A). If a fuse blows frequently, have the system inspected by an Official Aprilia Dealer.

How to clean the air filter?

Remove the filter housing cover by unscrewing nine screws. Slide out the filtering element. Wash it with a non-flammable solvent, dry thoroughly, and apply filter oil. Check the bleed pipe for deposits. Clean more often if riding in dusty conditions.

What should I do if the engine overheats?

Stop the engine immediately and check the coolant level in the expansion tank (between MIN and MAX). If low, top up with a 50/50 mixture of distilled water and ethylene glycol antifreeze. Do not remove the radiator cap when hot. Contact an Official Aprilia Dealer for leaks or persistent overheating.

How to lock the steering wheel?

Turn the handlebar fully to the left. Turn the key to OFF, then push it to LOCK. Never turn the key to LOCK while riding.

What is the recommended maintenance schedule?

The schedule includes inspections every 6,000 km and replacements at specified intervals (e.g., spark plug every 6,000 km, engine oil every 6,000 km, air filter cleaning every 6,000 km). See the table in the manual for details. Always use original Aprilia spare parts.

• Keep at least one brake operated while at a temporary halt..

Vehicle owners are warned that the law may prohibit the following:

- the removal of any device or element belonging to a new vehicle or any other action by anyone leading to render it non-operating, if not for maintenance, repair or replacement reasons, in order to control noise emission before the sale or delivery of the vehicle to the ultimate buyer or while it is used; and

- using the vehicle after that device or part has been removed or made non-operating.

Check the muffler/exhaust silencer and the silencer pipes, make sure there are no signs of rust or holes and that the exhaust system works properly. If exhaust noise increases, take your vehicle at once to an Official Aprilia Dealer.

Suggestions to prevent theft

NEVER leave the ignition key in the lock and always use the steering lock.

Park the scooter in a safe place such as a garage or a place with guards.

Whenever possible, use the aprilia "Body-Guard" armoured cable or an additional antitheft device.

Make sure all vehicle documents are in order and the road tax paid.

Write down your personal details and telephone number on this page to help identifying the owner in case of vehicle retrieval after a theft.

MAIN SAFETY RULES

To ride the vehicle it is necessary to comply with all legal requirements (driving license, minimum driving age, psychophysical performance, insurance, taxes and fees, registration, license plate, etc.).

You should practise using the vehicle in traffic-free areas and/or private property

Line drawing of a seated human figure with hands holding a tool, no text or symbols present

until you have become thoroughly acquainted with the vehicle.

Driving under the influence of medication, alcohol and narcotic drugs or psychotropic substances dramatically increases the risk of accidents.

Do not ride your vehicle if you feel tired or drowsy and always keep safe psychophysical riding conditions.

The main cause of motorcycle accidents is users' inexperience.

NEVER lend the vehicle to beginners and always make sure that the rider complies with all necessary requirements for a safe riding.

Strictly obey all national and local traffic signs and rules.

Avoid any abrupt and dangerous swerves for your own as well as others' safety (for example: rearing up on the back wheel, riding over the speed limit, etc.). Besides, always assess and bear in mind the road surface conditions, visibility, etc.

Do not knock obstacles that can damage the vehicle or cause loss of control.

Do not ride on the course of the vehicle in front just to improve your own speed.

ALWAYS RIDE WITH BOTH HANDS ON THE HANDLEBAR AND FEET ON THE FOOTRESTS (OR THE RIDER'S FOOTRESTS) IN THE ADEQUATE RIDING POSITION.

LET OP

Diagram of a crane lifting a truck, no text or symbols present

Never stand on your feet or stretch yourself while riding.

The rider should always be attentive, never get distracted or influenced by people, things or actions (never smoke, eat, drink, read, etc.) while riding.

Always use fuel and lubricants specific for the vehicle, of the type recommended in the "LUBRICANTS TABLE". Check fuel, oil and coolant frequently for correct level.

In case of an accident or after the vehicle has fallen down or suffered a sudden bump, make sure the control levers, piping, cables, brake circuit and main parts of the vehicle have not been damaged.

If necessary, take the vehicle to an Official aprilia Dealer to check especially the frame, handlebar, suspensions, safety components and any device the user cannot assess without the aid of a specialist.

Report any malfunction to the engineers and/or mechanics in order to facilitate their work.

Never ride the vehicle if the damage jeopardises safety.

Do not modify the position, angle or colour of: license plate, turn indicators, lighting devices and horn.

Any changes to the vehicle will void the warranty.

Any change introduced to the vehicle and the removal of original parts may jeopardise the vehicle performance and therefore reduce safety or even render the vehicle inappropriate for legal riding.

Comply with all national and local laws and regulations on vehicle equipment.

In particular do not introduce technical changes leading to improve performance and under no circumstances alter the original specifications of the vehicle.

Never race with vehicles.

CLOTHING

Before riding off, remember to put on the helmet and fasten it correctly. Make sure it is a homologated model, that it is undamaged, of the right size and that the visor is clean.

Wear appropriate protective clothes, preferably light-coloured and/or in reflective material. In this way you will be easily visible to other drivers, thus reducing the risk of being hit, and you will be better protected in case of falling.

Always wear tight-fitting clothes without open cuffs; avoid hanging strings, belts or ties; these or any other objects should not interfere with a safe riding when getting entangled with the riding elements or due to a special movement.

Never carry in your pockets objects that can be potentially dangerous in case of fall, like: pointed objects such as keys, pens, glass containers, etc. (the same rule applies to passengers).

KLEDING

ACCESSORIES

User is personally responsible for the installation and use of the accessories.

While assembling accessories, make sure that they do not cover the sound or light alarm devices or affect their correct functioning, do not limit the suspension travel or the steering angle, do not obstruct control actuation or reduce the ground clearance and inclination angle at corners.

Do not use accessories that hinder access to the controls as they may increase the reaction time in case of an emergency.

Fairings and large windshields fitted to the vehicle may cause aerodynamic forces that affect the vehicle stability while riding, mainly at high speeds.

Make sure the accessory is firm and secured to the vehicle and that it does not pose any risks while riding the vehicle.

Do not add or modify electrical equipment that exceed the vehicle capacity as this may result in a sudden stop or a dangerous lack of power required to keep the sound and light alarm devices operative.

aprilia advises using original accessories (aprilia genuine accessories).

ACCESSOIRES

Illustration of a motorcycle with two briefcases on top (no text or symbols)

Do not overload your vehicle. Keep packages as close as possible to the vehicle centre of gravity and distribute load evenly on both sides to minimise imbalance. Check also that the load is firm and secured to the vehicle, mainly for long trips.

Do not hang anything from your vehicle's handlebars, mudguards or forks, such as protruding, bulky, heavy and/or dangerous objects: this will slow the vehicle performance when turning and will upset the handling of your vehicle.

Do not carry packages that protrude from vehicle sides as this may hit people or objects and result in loss of control of your vehicle.

Never carry packages that are not securely fastened to the vehicle.

Do not carry packages that protrude from the luggage rack or which cover any of the sound and light alarm devices.

Never carry animals or small children on the glove-box or the luggage rack.

Never exceed the maximum weight allowed for each luggage rack.

Coolant solution is 50% water and 50% antifreeze fluid. This is the ideal mixture for most operating temperatures and provides good corrosion protection. It is advisable to use the same mixture even in hot weather as this minimises loss due to evaporation and the need of frequent top-ups. Thus, mineral salt deposits formed in the radiator by evaporated water are also minimised and the efficiency of the cooling system is not affected. When the temperature drops below zero degrees centigrade, check the cooling system frequently and add more antifreeze (up to 60% max.) if required.

Use distilled water in the coolant mixture to avoid damaging the engine.
