New berg owner!

crispy duck · Jul 27, 2014

Hello everyone new owner from Leeds Uk.Ive been looking on this site for a while now.

Well i finally found myself a 2009 570 fe with 30 hours on it so thought i would introduce myself properly.

These bikes don't come up too often in the uk especially with low hours.
I would have preferred the sm version but I couldn't find one with low hours.

anyways here's a pic as everyone likes pics

Just bought some SM wheels for it too which will hopefully be here by early next week.

Also snagged myself a 70 degree tank one of the last over run ones and also a scotts metal oil filter from the US.:spin:

So now i have myself a new money pit and a list of things i want to buy its going to be a long expensive road.
Also i need to find some places local now to ride it off road and get it dirty.

Crispy Duck lol.

Thanks i will take a look at taffmeisters.
I have spoken to my local Ktm dealers who said they can unlock the ecu and load maps onto it so that will be my next expense

Well once i get organized that is.

Welcome to the club!..Here's a part's list that I used bring my FE to FS spec

I have a converted 2010 FE 570 and there is some parts sourcing you will have to do but I shopped around and got good prices on parts like 14* Billet triples Radial brakes etc. parts I can remember to complete to FS spec are.

1. I got FBI to revalve/spring my suspension with radial fork leg was around $600
2. I had Marchesini wheels from a previous KTM but the Warp 9's are a lot less around $600 used to about $1200 new.
3. Remapped ECU W/Akra map + JD tuner $250
4. KTM hard parts 14* billet triples bought from Torque Monster $350 I think
5. KTM 310mm rotor bought from KTM world on sale for $175
6. KTM SMR radial MC/line caliper $150 bought on SMJ
7. Akra slip on bought on here $250
8. FS white plastic kit +FS headlight $350 from Appalachian off road
9. Trail tech Vapor $150 on eBay but you can re-program stock speedo
10. Vortex 13/42 sprockets & chain from HMC racing $130
11. Axle block sliders & front sliders bought from HMC racing for $125
12. Adige slipper clutch from HMC racing $650

Total $3780 USD but cut that down by taking off slipper/Plastic/speedo/Re-map & slip on
by $1550 but I would recommend the slipper clutch my HMC Berg is so sweet with that thing. I bought the bike for $5000 with 900k on it so I have $8780 in it, and it is very close to equal to the HMC Berg Minus the Beringer brakes & clutch MC.

Wow that's an expensive list of parts. I have rotors and wheels and not sure if I will need new 14mm triples as I probably won't be able to tell the difference between stock fe triples.

if it helps, I have a set of brand new, unused Xtrig triple clamps here that I have had anodised blue. they retail for 500 and the anodising was 70. - "ouch" as you might say! 500 for the set?

they have 200mm centres like the latest KTM SMs which allows more steering lock. but you'll need a conversion kit as well to allow the wheel to sit right. I can get this as well.

the offset is 11-14mm which means you need to be strong.

Thanks for the offer taffy. I'm going to run with the standard fe triples for a bit and see how it works out. I don't do track days so all my riding is on the street so I'm not sure if it would make much difference to me.
