choke

This is my first post, so I am not sure if this is the right place. I just purchased an 01 Hus FC470 and I can start it with the choke on and when I go to turn the choke off, it dies immediately. The only thing I have done so far is clean the air filter and check the oil. I have not checked the...

I have a new cable to change the stock choke cable to a longer one for easier access but the plastic knob on the end of the old cable seems to be molded on there. Anyone know how I can get this off and fitted to a new cable (the new cable has the same nipples as the old one)? Any better...

Hi there, I have posted this same question in another forum section,but dealers & distributers may be a better place.... My year 2000 FC600 had the choke lever mounted directly onto the carb (Dell'Orto) and the lever was virtually impossible to reach as it was wedged right up beteween the...

Hi everyone, The choke lever on my bike is impossible to reach (2000 FC600). The lever is hidden up near the top of the carb between the frame rail and the tank and you need very skinny fingers to operate it. It's been starting kinda OK without the choke, but has become VERY difficult on the...

i've done a full section on choke in the doc as opposed to just leaving it as a link which couldn't really be updated. http://www.husaberg.org/wiki/index.php/Carburation regards Taffy

New leftover 2005 fs650e. Bike has all the stock jets/needles that came in carb. Bike is really hard to start, usually runs batt down. I'm familiar with the carb as i've had the on my ktm supermoto and other bike. Carb is clean, air passages clean, fresh gas, and fresh spark plug. Gets good...

Hi, Could somebody please point me in the right direction? My bike is an 03 FE400 with less than 30hrs use, but has never started easily. I have tried to sort it once and for all by: - Replacing auto decomp bob weight with 04 updated model. - Clean up carburettor meticulosly - New plug -...

This is a multi-part question, more accurately, this post contains many questions. I have an '06 FE650e and I am currently in process of installing a jet kit from Mr. Lineweaver. No questions there (at this point), but it made me think that this is a perfect time to resolve another issue...

Hey all I have to say this is a great site we got here........ I am having some problem with my berg (05 450), it is running idle to fast (by turning the adjusting screw) and the difference between idle and chokes is too much... Is there anybody out there who now can be wrong...? I am 39...

Ok, I'm sure someone will flog me over this but my '03 FE400 has been starting off of the choke only, hot or cold. When kick start it it will not even attempt to fire but when I put the choke on it's one kick hot and 2 or 3 cold every time? 2003 FE400 Stock needle, slide, start jet...

my 400 fe starts up only if i hold the choke out and wait to hear the engine make a different noise. as soon as i hear this i let go of choke and it fires up , running with out choke. is this normal ?

I read an old post on UHE some time back; can't remember from who but the author described a condition whereby his bike would chug and load up in seconds when starting on the choke. This may have been an older berg like mine. This can really be a problem if you stall the bike and have to use the...

i thought i'd start this post to help all you numpties that can't get a handle on starting your bikes. most of you won't have sat and thought about this before but after you have read this i hope you'll get your shoot together and put some BRAIN POWER into it!!! having modified carbs...

I have a Mikuni carb'ed 650 SM. I have great trouble starting my bike. I believe its not getting enough fuel when cold and the choke's been pulled out. Does anyone know if the Mikuni TMR carbs have a choke jet, or any way of varying the fuel flow through the choke circuit ? Please help...
