Aprilia RS250

[Millsie]

Hey KB!

I've made the financially important decision to purchase an 1995 Aprilia RS250!
She's Loris Reggiani GP replica, some joker dropped her and parked her in his lounge for the last decade or so I was told

We've cleaned up the carbs, adjusted floats, had a look over the vac lines, replaced whatever's perished and noted that the one-way valves feeding the power-jets are passing each way

Finding parts is a bit of an issue; I've grabbed brake rotors from Japan, front brake switch from America, blablabla

Believe I'm chasing an electrical fault where I'm riding down the road and power cuts to the engine leaving me stalled in the street; I then have to cycle the key on/off to start her up again. Idling on the stand the neutral seems to dim for a second or two then come back on full brightness, charging circuit seems to be working but I'll try and trouble solve further


Anyone have experience with these 2bangers, or maybe a forum that specializes in tickling these Aprilia 2 strokes in the right places?

Still timeless styling 30 years later.

please don't mention how much time has passed :'(

It's an honour to have one of these bikes in my shed
hoping we can figure out these little niggles and get to inhale smoke in the morning~
