end

Gentlemen, Trying to put together a strong bottom end for roadracing. I have a 2005 FS650C with under 300 miles on it, including 90 miles on a 3 mile road course. The quick version to my troubles is the inner oil filter cap o-ring sheared when the previous owner installed it. A 3/4" (1.8cm)...

just a question for y'all? i have a chance to test a rod that has a steel little end eye (as was intended) from another application. what can i expect? any trouble at all? my expereience is of bikes having bronze little end bushes within the rod. regards Taffy

i have a crank stripped and the inside of the rod is more worn more on the fringe than in the middle. careful inspection shows it to be the cage scrapping all the way around the inside of the rod - obviously always going with gravity etc. the rod has given the inside cheeks of the crank a...

hi we went out to our local practice track at the weekend on my berg, every time i went over the jumps the front end just wanted to be on the ground and nose diving nearly throwing me off every time and i was leaning as far back as i could! the forks are about 8mm up in the clamps, what do i...

have a 470 with later top end fitted and therefore no oil feed from the case up through the head to the rocker area. looking at the headgasket laying there all falorn like, i decided to snip a 2mm slit from the the pressure oil feed through to the area in the gasket for camchain to run up to...

:( I'm sad to say that all 08 650 husaberg's are gone!

Hello Gentlemen Berg is still in pieces due to main bearing crash last september.Now i'm putting things back together and have some questions.. I am planning to install SKF NJ206 ACP /C3 HVC058 roller bearings,both sides+weld crank pin to halves.Pictures coming when it is done. Any...

My new 07 450e was beating me to death and I've got the sore back to prove it...tried some heavier springs I had on hand and still the beating went on...finally I laid over the seat of my sweet Berg and as I glanced at her rear end I noticed I was short on the stroke { shock stroke, gutter minds...

hi all what method is used to set crank end float, i'm not sure if a main is about to collapse ive got a metalic clank every now and then at tickover ,i checked in the cam box and behind the clutch cover, the only thing i can see wrong is the flywheel moves in and out when running and i'm sure...

I've been out on the bike a few times since it's now running fine but the rivets on the end cap have come loose with the exhaust pressure. I've been out to the garage tonight to remove the rivets and the end cap from the aluminium can. I seem to remember a post last year when someone recommended...

Short history: I went for a ride with a couple of guys I met and 1 of them turned up on an 03 fe501. It took a bit to get going, once going would need throttle to keep it going, wouldn't e-start (not even turn over) at all and was a real mission to get it kick started. It was basically running...

Hi, I have been suffering a slight front end push on my Berg 550 pretty much since day dot, I have more recently spoken with my Berg Dealer, and inquired as to wether pushing the forks down a little further in the clamps would make a difference. The forks are currently set on the second...

Hmmm Dellorto 40 on my FE 501 ... In in effort to soften the power from zero revvs, i finally got round to fileing the mouth of my throttle slide. To be fair it seems a bit better, but is now not running right. Obviously i increased the air jet - twice actually and am currently at 52 !! It...

Hi everyone, in this case i was so unfortunate i bought a very poorly looked after 501, in which case it needs a new cylinder since it has worn trough the nicasil coating. So I'm wondering where its cheapest to buy one or a cheaper complete bog bore kit is available? Chris:)

Hi all just joined this site as recently got me hands on a 2003 fs650. Luckily enough to have got one that has been tuned by DCR in Preston. Cant believe how mad this thing is I love it. Had a CCM R30 3 years ago and that wasnt a patch on the berg. Got a problem that hopefully some suggestions...

hey every one, bought a 2003 fs 650 a week ago, rode it for 3 hours went to buy some oil and a filter and it seazed up on my way to the shop, what a bugger! the big end bearing melted, i have bought a repair kit with a rod, crank pin and bearing, but the crank halfs are slightly burred over and...

Gent's Real broadly speaking ... I'm finding that after riding through a lot of water, i loose my tickover. So i screw the idle adjustment screw in a bit, but then it struggles to start off the button and generally requires fiddling with the mixture screw..... However, if it were dry, the...

just wondered if we run the same b/e size throughout and indeed what size is it? regards Taffy

Dr_C's gallry shows this, inner ends of the rocker arm axles are tied down by a pair of cover bolts. I cant't remember that here are any bolts there on my rocker cover. Thinking of it, it seems like a good idea to have them. What happens, without these bolts, if the axle inner ends start to...

Hello everyone Can some one tell me is it true that when the front wheel is shoved up under the plastic that it hits the exhaust on the all the FE's and has that been fixed if so,and when the bike is hot can you still start it with out the hot start or is the hot start needed all the time to...
