Hello everyone. I am new to this forum and new to Husabergs and 4 strokes. I have always owned 2 strokes but I just bought a 2008 fe450e with 13 hours on it. I have no coolant leaking out of the engine or radiator but everytime I open the radiator cap the fluid is down below the fins. I just...

G'day everyone. This is my first post. I am an Aussie. I have just bought a second hand 05 FS650E. Great bike. So I'd like to start with a problem I have noticed after my first ride and other than this the bike seems to be in pretty good nick for 13000 kms. I have this coolant leak just...

After stuffing up the install of a water pump seal i have been trying to get rid of milky oil from my engine (04, 650). I have now gone through 10 litres of oil and still get milky oil within 5-10 seconds of startup. When left to sit the 'used' oil appears to return to normal and there is no...

Hey Guys, Firstly I would just like ot say hi, I recently bought a used 07' FE450 as my first dirtbike (mostly street riding until now.) I read a bit on these forums before purchasing and the forums sold me. Anyways I am already calling for your help lol. The bike was definatly ridden hard...

I just took my 450 out today for a short ride as I got it registered street legal. Went for a short ride, came back home and realized that steam and smoke were coming out of the engine and exhaust..(piston, rings etc) It had probably 2hours after the last overhaul... The coolant was empty and I...

Just thought I'd let you all know about a new coolant which 100% Glycol soon available in Australia (Internationals will have to contact me direct for details etc) now available which has 190deg Celsuis boiling point, unlike others on the market that are thicker in viscosity compared to Glycol...

I've got problems with my 2005 Fe550, the bike stopped running and after draining the oil found a lot of emulsion from presumably the coolant leaking into the oil. The coolant level was very low. I've taken the engine out of the frame to work on but can I just look at the head gasket and...

Went for a ride on my FE450E in the bush for the first time on Sunday. Blown away by the performance and handling- much better than my Honda XR owned previously. Had been riding for about 30 min when my mate noticed that coolant was flooding violently out of the overflow pipe. Immediately...

Long story short, I installed the orangeberg waterpump fix it kit, everything seemed to go alright, ran her and everything was good, a few days later I was messing with the clutch and while putting the side cover back on, I heard the kick lever spring let loose and had to open her up again, I...

I own a 2002 Husaberg FE501 that continues to leak coolant (no oil in coolant). This occurs when riding and continues for a while afterwards. What would happen if I plugged up the weephole so coolant could not escape out of this hole???[/b]

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...

I am a forum virgin. I have a 2004 550FE and love it. I just replaced the water pump seals within clutch cover due to escess coolant leaking out of weap hole. It has appeared to fix the problem; however, now I have coolant leaking out of my head gasket. What gives? Is this typical? Is this...

Hey guys,,, can anybody tell me if the coolant flows to the top of the radiator hot FROM the motor or to the bottom of the radiator?

Found one made for a new model KTM at rlrproducts.com. Could probably find a place to mount it under the seat similar to where they recomend on a KTM. dan
