chain

My 2011 FE570S needs a new timing chain. Iwas wondering if I get a new OEM or is there a better aftermaket one...?

On my 390 I've been using Regina 520RN6 O-Ring chains but have been having a real issue getting the split link on. Basically it gets on but doesn't feel too secure on the open end and as it is so hard to fit wouldn't want to fit one if the link broke on the trails!! Anyone found the same? Any...

I just replaced the timing chain on my Husaberg FS 650 02. I also replaced both cam bearings, the auto decomp and spring to the modified/newer ones. I also changed the cam chain tensioner blade to the black one. Snapped the knob of the cam chain tensioner. The problem however, is that when i...

This is an '08 and the rear sprocket and chain are pretty new. I put a new front sprocket on (15t), but it wouldn't fit with the chain slider, so I modified the slider. There's not much room around the 15t, so I was a little paranoid. I've never tried this with my 'berg, but I ran it in first...

Hi I want to know how many links a stock fs570 chain has, I know my chain is +2 links but can't remember how many links it was 120/122? I used google/ ebay and seen 118/120 links I will need a new chain for next year and want to have +4 links compared to stock so I can fit up to 43 rear sprocket...

Hi guys! I wonder if someone can help me. My timing chain tensioner broke, pulled it out and saw that the moving part, the shaft which has those many teeth is okay, but the small trigger part ( which is supposed to stop it from moving) of it has its teeth broken off. I don't know if that small...

I have searched and searched and have not been able to find out how to time this motor once it has been disassembled. I dropped a valve and after head work etc I'm ready to reassemble. this is my first Husaberg and can't find any timing marks to help me. My concern is the balancer? I had to...

Hi im needing a new chain for an FE501 2003 model. Ive counted the links to be 57 plates on the outside including 2 split links (YES 2!!) Ive never quite got to grips with how to count a chain so what length should it be running? It has a 48 rear and either a 15 or 16 front I have both and was...

Hello, I'm going to change cam chain, the new one that I buy is with the split-spring clip from Iwis. In manual from Iwis is written that closed end of spring clip must look in the way of rotation. I try to look for rotation direction through oil cap and looks like the cam chain travel goes...

Anyone noticed that their drive chain has rubbed the kickstand spring screw head off? I have a 2010 FX 450 and a friend has a 2010 FE 450 and we both have the problem. I tried to find some information about this but I didn't have any luck.

Hello, I have a problem with front chain sprocket, I tighten the bolt as much as I can but the washer that is under the bolt is turning around: Picture from Gargoyle. Maybe someone know what is wrong? Best regards, Damian.

anyone know where i can get a top of swing arm chain guard for my 570?

How many teeth can I go up on the rear sprocket without having to go to a new chain? Rear wheel is almost as far back on the adjusters as it can go. Currently the bike has 15/42 on it. I'd like to gear it a little more to off road ( tighter stuff).

Hi. My 2005 fs 650e has been having problems starting with the e-start when the engine is cold. the stater just spins and when the engine is warm no problems starting. I removed and disasembled the torque limiter gear and I found 2 cup washers instead of one. should I remove one and install a...

Hi, The inevitable happened :( My timing chain on my '07 Fe 550e broke and wedged in somewhere ...I will not disclose how it happend :oops: It has 8000km on and 190 hours. I'm replacing it but would like to know from someone who did it before, if there is an easy way of doing it. I will...

I am looking at buying a 1999 fe501 which has a snapped cam chain , is there likely to be valve and / or piston damage ???? and what would cause the cam chain to snap in the first place , I know the cam chains on these arnt very good so would it have snapped just through being a weak part ...

Looks like i will soon need to replace the cam chain on my FE400. Is there an easy and hard way of doing this ? Also to test the tensioner is it just a case of un bolting it from the engine ? I`ve never done one but want to give it a go. Cheers Bob.

Hi, I just brought home my first 'Berg and I'm looking so much forward to start riding it :) I need a new set of sprockets and a new chain. The old sprocket in the front has 14 teeth and the old rear sprocket has 42 teeth. I see there are much more rear sprockets with 47-52 teeth than 42 teeth...

Hey all I'm sussing out an oem or aftermarket chain guard for my 2009 Fe450 so I can road rego it to Queensland road specs ( Australia) . After searching around I haven't found much about them apart from some models come with them stock. Does the Australian delivered version come out with...

I only have about 50 hours on the bike and chain (an 08), but I noted this small stains of rust on it. Is it dangerous ? should I replace it or is it normal when the bike is being stored for long periods of time? Thanks Mati
