bit

So I have a 2006 KTM 250sxf w/ fcr carb. The bike idles well, starts easy, has great throttle response, no bog. The only problem is when I'm putting around with no real load/no acceleration say 1-2 gear with the throttle rolled just above idle it sounds a bit rough. How should i go about...

Hi guys an gals, Just need to confirm my model year before i shell out cash for a swingarm bearing kit. The site selling them goes no lower than 2004. My reg is 53 so i thought it'd be 2003. But looking at the doc, my tenth digit is 4 which makes it a 2004. Would 03 an 04 bearings be the same...

Hi. Not long ago I bought a 2004 FE650 and I've fixed a few things, brakes, electrics, etc. One thing I've noticed is that the gearbox seems stubborn and clunky; sometimes its hard to change gears and neutral is impossible to find with the engine running. I know some people say 'that's just how...

I think the spacer with the rubber seal belongs somewhere on the front wheel or axle but I've forgotten where ?

got a company in the UK, Evoke concepts, to knock me up some leatt graphics for FR3, was also goin to put my blood group on the tags but though that might be tempting fate. also if i was to say 'geocaching' will anyone know what i was on about?

I have noticed that my FE400 02 is using a bit of oil, after topping up to the top of oil window and then using about 5 litres of fuel ( 3 hour ride) it is now about 1/4 the way up the window. I have noticed a small amount of smoke on cold start and a very small amount when I give it a rev when...

thought I'd be different and rode the bergie to work today - about a 15 mile commute 1 way. Noticed that when 'cruising' along steady throttle about 4k-5k rpms it would 'cut out' - like it was running out of gas - starving for fuel. If I blipped the throttle or eased off it would catch right...

hello all i recently bought a fc 470 that only has 1 ignition key and ive managed to lose it. im going to get another ignition or maybe put a switch hidden out of the way,anyway could anyone tell me the wires i have to join to do away with the ignition so i can ride it for now as...

This is the first time I am going to work in the engine and for a start I have to fix a leak coming down from the rocker cover. What's the best way to remove the cover? Do I have to remove the radiator? I hope that the issue comes from the sealant and I intend just clean up and, re-apply...

Entered the Alto Turia rallye in May on a 501. Currently preparing the bike. Fuel is one of the many challenges as longest day is due to be 350kms. There will be fuel en route, but I would prefer to have as much available as possible. I already have the factory underseat tank adding 2.8l. I...
