clearance

Axial clearance measured and it has 0.40mm clearance without gasket glue or whatever its named(permatex supra copper) between the blocks. Repair manual says 0.45mm-0.55mm. Good enough? or do I have to buy new bearing and add thinner shim?

Hi, I have a FE 400 on a 04 plate, 03 model with E Start, I have read up on the 1/6 turn valve adjustment, so I thought I'd have a go, I got tdc, I believe, I undid the nut and screwed the adjuster all the way in which was a couple of complete turns, which seems to much unless I have something...

Hi guys, I've installed the KB kit #96-96000 on my 06' FE650 but I can't get any valve clearance. :eek: Per a previous post, it seemed like no modifications were needed to fit the kit. However, with or without the spacers in the kit, the rocker arms are touching the valves allowing no...

I'm a new owner of a 2011 FE390 and a new member of the forum, and I want to change my counter sprocket from a 13 to a 14 tooth. Has anyone done that? Is there enough clearance for it? Because it looks pretty tight as far I can see. Thanks for the help.

Hi all, currently fully rebuilding my 01 650 engine as it was using alot of oil, don't want to do it again anytime soon so it's having the full works, re plated liner, new piston, bushes, bearings, the lot. The whole bike is getting the works to be honest, however I've read a fair bit through...

Finally i am rebuild 03 650 engine back together,i put rollerbearings both crankcases,i measured connection rod Lateral play was 0.5mm. When i got cranksaft and crankcases tighten and measured Lateral play on cranksaft dial gauge i got reading 0.28 so i need more space to get 0.55-0.65...

So I've got this bike that I like to call "Frankenberg". It's a 2003 vintage frame with suspension from a 2000 FX600E that I used to own. Got in a head-on collision on the FX and bent the frame at the steering head, hence the odd collection of parts. Clearly the FX engine wouldn't fit the '03...

I read that the valve clearance is supposed to be 0,10mm. I'm not exactly sure what that means? Am I supposed to use the 10mm for the intake and exhaust? Is there a tolerance or is it only 10mm? Thanks for your help.

I was thinking of going 16-48 for a long dual sport ride this summer (some highway, a lot of gravel roads, very little of any harder stuff). my local Mechanic is saying 16 will have clearance issues and even 15 might be too big. can anyone give some feedback? I see the parts manual listing...

2006 FE550. Time to check the valves. Does anyone know the actual clearances for the intake and exaust valves? I know about the 1/6 turn thing, I just have a hard time believing that the intake an exaust operate at the same temperature. Mabe I'm wrong. Someone please enlighten me. Thanks

Hi My engine has 0,7 axial clearance (roller bearings). Anyone know if this will be OK? Thanks Silverfx:eek:

I have a 93 fe501. Im doing a top end due to a blown head gasket. While im in there Im taking a good look at the condition of all parts. I have .005 in/.13mm clareance on the wrist pin. seems loose to me. As I do not have a table of limits for this engine what is the factory spec for this...

Ok guys, the Husaberg mysteries keep my buddies laughing every weekend! We have seen MANY MANY 4 strokes needing clearance adjustment because the clearance gets reduced, Except for the mighty 2001 husa FX650, I actually keep gaining clearance on the exhaust valve. I have read some old...

I've tried search, but did not come with a definitive answer, so here I go. `10 FE390, around 190 hours, just acquired recently, don't know if valves were checked before, this is my first check, measured values are: (IN should be between 0.10 - 0.15mm) IN#1: between 0.13 - 0.15mm (ok) IN#2...

Hi guys Can somebody tell me correct valve clearances on my fe501 2003 been told not to go by the ones in manual Cheers

With all the.......predictions.....guessing....that the end is near, will there be any kind of blow out sales on the last of the Bergs? I am seeing Husky having model clearance sales and know there is a lot of uncertainty about their future. So as a buyer I have to ask if anybody has any...

Hey all, I have a 2011 FE570. I just installed the 70 Deg Racing subframe tank and I figured while I had the bike stripped down I would take the opportunity to wrap the midpipe exhaust and cut down on heat below the tank. I know it was tight, but I can't recall how much clearance I had...
