Buying a 2010 FE390, things to look out for?

Esto65 · Aug 3, 2013

I am looking at a 2010 FE390 with 55 hours on it. The bike looks "used but not a abused" in the pictures but I have not done an on site inspection yet.

Anything in particular I should look for on this bike?

they are pretty rock solid, do make a slight rattle ( ticking sound from valves and cam chain I think) compared to other engines. some suffer from cam chain tensioner failure and noise will be a lot louder, do a Google search.

Got one, bought it used from a friend with about 3K miles on it and just finished the Colorado 500 (a little over 600 miles) and it was awesome. A Rekluse clutch was the one thing I would recommend to anyone. I was able to climb ANYTHING, never balked, didn't stall it once during the week and I could easily thread thru the rock gardens and root sections.
