differences

Hi there, I've been dropping a few questions in a couple of different posts and realised I'm probably not in the right topic, so firstly sorry to those guys. I've now decided to upgrade the exhaust after riding today and the FMF's seem to grab me the most. The problem i have is the FMF guys...

I will be making a purchase soon, likely a 2010 FE450 depending on availability in my area. However, I have a bead on a new 2009 FE450 at one dealer. I was wondering if anyone can enlighten me on the changes for the 2010 models? Lighting, frame, suspension, motor? Are the 2010's easier to...

as some of you know, i do an exchange camshaft. the knackered ones i get in usually have the cam code still emblazoned on the end. i have had a couple that don't and they are different. they are identical except for one thing; the whole cam sprocket mount is 3mm inbound towards the cam...

Hi Guys, Just out of curiosity, I thought I would start a thread on the changes from 2009'S - 2010's I notice the specs on the new 570's state the compression ratio is now up from 11.8-1 to 12.2-1 Steve

Hi there, I have shipped my 97 Berg to Austria, and getting a title is a major hassle. So my 'creative' idea is to buy a 94 FE501 frame with title, and just change the numbers. If this should not work, I would need to swap the engine. The reason why I would like to get a title and a license...

Just checked some '09 450fe prices. In Germany the price seems to vary between EUR 8990 to EUR 9264. In the US of A the price seems to be around 9400 USD which currently equals 7374 EUR. Could someone explain where does this difference come from? Could it be the freight costs? It must be cheaper...

I have two '05 Husabergs, a FS650c and a FE550e. I installed Dale's needle in the 650 and it runs perfectly. The stock needle from the 650c is an OBEKR and I'm thinking of putting it in my 550e to replace it's stock needle which is an OBDVT. What's the difference? There is a third needle...

I have an 03 300exc and just got a like new 2002 Husaberg 501. I noticed it is much harder for me to ride i the woods than the 300 and tires me out quicker especialy in the arms . I ride in the tight woods of South AL and am much faster on the 300 but am wondering if the 4 stroke will make me...

Any major improvements between now and '06 to the 650? I know that info is probably floating around here somewhere, but was unsure how to locate it. The possibility of owning an '06 may have come up and wondering if an '08 or '07 would be much smarter... :wink: thanks aj

question.. does anyone know if the cam chain tensioner from 05 onwards have more throw or adjustment than the early 01-02. thanks ..weed..

I have a 2000 FC501 that I'm about to spend a ton of money on the top end and am wondering if it is better to buy a complete used engine but I'm only finding them from 1996 to 1998 right now. Is there any differences that I should be aware of?

Hello guys, any input on the difference from the 550 to the 650. i have put a few miles on a buddys 04 650 and i like it very much. i hear that the 550 has more punch and will accelerate harder than the 650??? seems strange to me. i have been holding out on the 2t's still, so the Berg will be my...

Just finished tearing down and rebuilding my FX650e ds. The wiring was all hokey, so rather then muddle the problem further I decided to start from scratch. Can anyone take a look at this wiring diagram (see attached) and tell me what you think before I cook something? I am by no means an...

hi, the parts manual shows an 02 camshaft sprocket as a 'unique' number. does anyone know what sprockets will fit? steel or aluminium shouldn't matter, correct? i thought they were all the same but the manual says different. thanks tuts

Guys, If I were to convert an FE to motard, what would be the differences in suspension? Looking to ride mostly-street, maybe some track days. Mostly interested in firmness differences and any height differences between the two. Would the difference be negligible? Thanks Lou

Esteemed H'bergers, Can someone explain the functional differences between the newer FE450, 550, and 650? Are they all quite different animals? And what would be their respective personalities and uses? In other words can you easily trail ride a 650? Is the 550 the best...

I have seen a bit of hype regarding the '07 suspension parts as being much better. What specifically is better? Are the parts something that I could purchase and put in my '06? How about the kit for the Force models with the polished internal parts? Any idea of costs? I'm likely going to...

Can somebody tell me how I can see if my bike is a 2004 of 2005, Are there differcenses on the outside of the engine? I want to know this so that I can see if I have a 2004 or 2005 engine. It is for a 650 enduro bike.

i searched a bit but couldn't find a concise list of the changes for '05. if i sell my klx i'm thinking about picking up an 04 fe550. can anyone point me in the right place? thanks. -mark
