The guy was a no-show. He didn't even call me back to let me know what happened. I don't have a cell phone--on purpose--but he had my home phone and both work numbers.
Oh well.

I had his email and 'asked' if he sold it after he was a no show for you, he said;
"There's another person who may pay more, although I may just fix the bike because I'm too attached."

At this point I'm just going to try and make the TE570 work. It's a great bike and a blast to ride. Tons of power and a nice gear spread. It's just a bit of a handful in the tight, slow stuff. I guess I need to not be such a candy a$$ and just manhandle it through those areas. lol.

If it is a carb problem? 450 08,good quality. Does not appear to have the main bearing problem due to less talk. With 4/6 litres in the tank it goes very well.
in my opinion, if it matters. you have to try it!
got my FE450 08 a month ago. and i love it.
as taffy says it feels light to ride. most ppl ride smaller enduros. wich probably feels even lighter but maybe less is more. a 650 shouldnt be needed for trails. a 450 might even be to much for some trails.
so try one Before u listen to everyone else.

Hello taffy. i miught be out of line here in this thread maybe. but i gotta ask what your jetting kit includes. ive done eveything on my bike but the jets and im about to. and figured id buy a few and try. but it seems you allrdy have a good plan. and how much would it cost, with shipment to sweden from you. (since i asked you i should buy it from you ye?)

I have the 20O8 450 and a mate has the 2007 650.
The 650 will over heat a bit before the 450 in the tight or big hilly ****, there is nothing really between them but for 5th and 6th gear the 650 pulls away from the 450 and the 650 you can be more lazy to ride and it's just the gearing being different and only the run on of the big 650 that could make it harder to ride, but apart from that all is the same mainly to ride.
Would I want the 650 over my 450, no not really, it does not bother me at all and I am 130 kg. but that said getting roosted big time when he is in 5th is not fun at all :furious: but that only happens some times:hathat37:
My 450 has much more torque than the 450 Honda and Yamaha down low.
The crappy cast 450 cranks do flex just like the 550 and cast 650 cranks do, I think it's more to do with the big 4 inch piston that they all have, must weigh more than the 450 Jap bikes pistons ? stressing the cranks more so.

Best performance improvement is to make sure stock tank beather is installed or after market one is clean and working. It should rattle when you shake it. If not working you will be starving fuel without notice the lack of power until you fix it.

Well I have the 08 450 berg and two mates have the 650 and one with a 550.
I am 130 KG and I don't cry out that I wished I had the bigger engines as they can't hose me off till 5 th gear.
My bike was what one could call liner power with much more torque down low then a 450 yam or Honda, but after Orangeberg did the engine up she now has much more revs and once it gets to about the rev it could never once would do, it is now very snappy from then on and then it goes ballistic wanting to rev to the moon.
