Hello everyone,
I always wanted a dirt bike, never had any except some old russian motorcycles.
Today was the day i became a Husaberg owner. Found it for sale by and accident and don't know why, buy felt it belongs to me.
It's a 2000 model 501 Husaberg, bought it from i guy who had it standing for very long. All the wires were disconnected after some fiddling got a spark, put some fuel in and gave it a kick. Bang! It hit me quite hard on the leg, few more attempts and it kick back ao hard it broke the kickstarter shaft. Luckily i had a box with many parts almost a whole engine and found the shaft. So that was my first date with this baby.
And now i'm here to read if it's possible to adjust the ignition to make it back fire less :)
Looking forward learning about this brand of motorcycle

there's a white line you will see through the inspection window on the ignition cover. remove this and look for the white line. it should appear to be very slightly (only just) to the LEFT of centre. difficult i know but say 0.5mm.

welcome to UHE!

cheers

Taffy
