RSV mille
◆
Start the engine.
◆ Allow the engine to idle for about 15-20 minutes, or ride
the vehicle on a country road for approximately 15 km
(9.5 mi).
◆ Stop the engine.
◆ Keep the vehicle in vertical position, with the two
wheels resting on the ground.
◆ Check the oil level in the transparent pipe (1) through
the appropriate slot provided on the left fairing.
MAX =maximum level
MIN = minimum level.
The difference between “MAX” and “MIN” amounts to
approximately 500 cm
#
.
◆ The level is correct when the oil almost reaches the
“MAX” mark.
a
CAUTION
Never exceed the “MAX” mark, nor leave the oil be-
low the “MIN” mark, in order to avoid serious damage
to the engine.
Do not put additives or other substances into the oil.
If you use a funnel or other similar items, make sure
that they are perfectly clean.
If necessary, top up the engine oil by proceeding as fol-
lows:
◆ Remove the left fairing, see 7.1.26 (REMOVING THE
SIDE FAIRINGS).
◆ Unscrew and remove the filling cap (2).
◆ Top up the tank and restore the correct level, see 1.6
(LUBRICANT CHART).

Carefully read 0.2.1 (PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL
INFORMATIONS) and 1.2.2 (ENGINE OIL).
Periodically check the engine oil level, see 2.13 (CHECK-
ING THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL AND TOPPING UP)
change the oil after the first 1000 km (625 mi) and suc-
cessively every 7500 km (4687 mi) or 8 month.
a
CAUTION
If the vehicle is used in dusty areas, change the oil
more frequently.
In case of use on racetracks, change every 3750 km
(2343 mi).
TO CHANGE
NOTE
The oil flows out completely and without prob-
lems when it is warm and therefore more fluid: to achieve
this condition, the engine should run for approximately
twenty minutes.
a
WARNING
When warmed up, the engine contains hot oil; there-
fore, while carrying out the operations described
here below be particularly careful, in order to avoid
burns.
NOTE
Position the vehicle on the side stand on firm
and level ground.
◆ Remove the lower fairing, see 7.1.32 (REMOVING
THE LOWER FAIRING).
◆ Position a container (3) with more than 4000 cm
#
ca-
pacity in correspondence with the drain plug (4) posi-
tioned on the tank.
◆ Unscrew and remove the drain plug (4) positioned on
the tank.
◆
Unscrew and remove the filling cap (2).
◆ Drain the oil and let it drop for a few minutes inside the
container (3).
