    Failing radiator cap or bad coolant?

    I guess my radiator cap did not do what it was supposed to do, because at one point during my last ride, the coolant got so hot (I was trying Motul Motocool for the first time and I will keep experimenting with it) that it blew out, but instead of going through the overflow hose, it blew through...

    Hard E-Starting - bad adjustment of auto-decomp

    I just bought a used 2005 FE450E; only 39 hours. It had the, now standard, starting issues. I am not mechanically gifted. (I learned everything from working on my 03 FE400 and using this site. Taffy, thanks for the Doc.) I think what I just experienced may be of interest to new Husaberg...

    Why KTM owners always speak bad about Husa´s

    I do not understand, but always KTM owners say and ask, why did you bought a husa instead of a KTM, I always say because I like it more, weights less, more comp oriented, the frame shape is ideal to lift the bike, more gas capacity,and because I want something different that is a good reason...

    Is the ball/roller main combo a bad configuration ???

    Ive been thinking it over for a while and its getting to me. :? The warranty engine (03 650) supplied to me after my initial 8 hr intake rocker fiasco came fitted with LHS roller, RHS ball. The question is, with that bearing configuration, how do Husaberg expect the crank to stay locked...

    Good or bad?

    Took of the rocker cover, and just wanted to verify if the rocker assembly in my 2002650 is the older or the newer type? How can i be sure? How about the cam sprocket, i tried to scratch it with a screw driver, and i couldn't so i suppose it is steel and thus the newer better type...

    Got my "new" FE 550 E, runs bad!!!

    I just got my FE 550 shipped from Germany ( bought on E-bay). It runs bad, runs idle for appr. 10 sec., then makes a loud "pop" and stops. It seems to be running lean, but sounds good mechanical. Has done about 2000 miles. I will give it a valve adjust, change oil, change plug, clean...

    Husaberg won't start! Bad spark

    Hi everyone, I am now almost at the point of getting rid of my 2002 FE 650 berg to get a newer version or possibly going 2-stroke again. It just won't start, not even fire a bang everynow and then. I even rode it down a long slope in different gears but it wont even make a sound. It all...

    Stators keep going bad

    I have a 2003 FE400E , got it new in Jan 2005 and have had to put in 2 stators so far. Is there a reason why my stator keeps going bad. Is something else causing this problem. I have a weighted fly wheel if that makes a difference. ( 14oz )

    Running Your Husaberg with No Oil A Bad Idea

    A race team to whom I supply engines recently ran an engine that I built up for them personally but it seems that they forgot to fill the engine with oil before they ran it 8O When I assembled the engine I dripped oil into all the bearings, gears, seals etc with a small pipet just so that...

    One Bad Machine

    My dad was recently in San Francisco, CA on business. While he was there I told him to look for a Husadealer called Subterranean Cycles. He found the place & the owner rolled his Berg SM outside for Dad to takes pictures of. This is by far one of the baddest bikes I've seen. Had to share it...

    03 FE400 bad valve?

    Bought an 03 FE400 in May 04. Love it...but yesterday I blew up on the trail. Lost power, loud clicking from the engine. Did I drop a valve? It starts, but I am worried about damage. About 25 hours on the engine. There are no Berg dealers in my state, and I do not consider myself...
