How to take carb out of fe550
How to take carb out of fe550

Help Support Husaberg:
Assuming Keihin, it's thus:
Tools:
1/4" socket for clamps
Phillips driver for throttle cable cover
8mm wrenches for throttle cables
Process:
Secure and remove fuel hose.
Drain carb.
Loosen all boot clamps
Rear boot off
Throttle cables and TPS.
Front boot off
Pull out right side
Never removed the starter for this job. No need.
15 min from start to finish, and compared to most posters here, I'm a comparative moron in the garage. Way easier than my last carb bike, the DRZ.

Tried removing the throttle cables but they didn't want to come out.

Hi there guys,
for memory , i think i used to just loosen the rubber boots either side, then you could rotate the base of carbi toward you, then I think there was just enough room there to get to the base to either remove the base of carbi and also can remove jets ,etc for cleaning.
So maybe dont need to remove the whole thing.
I actually cut down a 17mm ring spanner to about 50mm long, used that to remove drain plug in base of carbi without touching anything else.
Cheers,
