Hello everyone
I have just started to restore an old Husaberg 501 from 1991.
As I have never worked on a Husaberg before, I am missing some important information.
I would just like to get some basic information about the model and get some helpful tips.
What I have already noticed is that...
Hello Husaberg community! My name is Tristan and I am from Washington State, USA. I have a 2003 FE501 that I bought a little over a year ago with ~50 hours on the clock. I put about 10 hours on the bike and it ran decently, but while jetting/tuning the carb I was doing repeated WOT runs and she...
Hi I am well into my 92 ex works 501 Fe = says 502cc on the engine ..
My question is does anyone have a paint code for the frame and was it painted or powder coated from new?
The frame had been powder coated sometime ago in gloss black which is incorrect - it should be light grey in colour but...
Hi all, picked up a 1990 FE501 to restore and a enough parts to probably build another so I am dipping my toe in and seeing whats what. I mean, how bad could it be right!! I am in Cave Creek Az and gonna be looking for a shop manual and parts sources over the next while. The second bike needs a...
Looking for a complete plastics kit for my 2014 FE 501. Could probably get by with a new Front Fender, Fender Brace and Radiator Shrouds. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I am currently living in Sayulita, Mexico but willing to pay for shipping. Thanks again for time and...
Hey guys.
I got my stator rewound and now instead of the 3000 ohms I should have red to black, I have 1650 ohms. I feel this will decrease the voltage output to the coil.
Anyone in the know who can tell me what effect that would have on output?
Right now I have this rewound stator and a...
I have a 95 FE and and 98 FC. They both have the WP front end but the FE has the upside-down version vs the standard version on the FC. What are the performance differences between the two types? (and which is better?) By the way, the front wheels are not interchangeable due to the different...
I could use an early FE501 schematic to finish wiring my bike.
The PO had removed most wires and kept a bare minimum like a MX bike.
Meanwhile I have some questions:
1) on the 95's ignition module, there is one wire that is a mystery. The red one. Is that a power-on wire or is it a shut-down...
Hi guys
I’m sure you have touched on this before but what is the ideal gear ratio for average street on a 2014 fe501 on 17/150/70 ish Tyre
I’m converting my trail bike over very soon
Cheers
I took my '99 FE501 out for a mileage test last weekend, and I did 59 miles per gallon averaging 50 mph. It was around 50F temps. My motor at those speeds was averaging between 113F - 116F. At those cold temps, it felt rich, and down on power. I'd sit for 5 minutes at idle to get it up to 175F...
I recently posted this '99 FE501 with a FCR41 for sale, and I thought some people would like to see a current Dyno/AFR chart for this bike. I am a tuner with my own Dyno for my Land Speed race team. I know the FCR's very well, and I spent an afternoon dialing this bike in. It has a "Big Gun"...
Hi all, new to the forum and have just purchased a fe501 2002. Been told by the guy I bought it off he thinks the timing chain may be one or two teeth out, top end is opened up and I am just wondering what the best way to attack seeing if there’s any problems with it and checking the timing...
Hi! i just finished the engine rebuild, when i start the bike the engine runs fine with choke on, as soon i choke off it dies.
I cleaned carefully the carb, the idle jet is 42, the main jet 190, the needle clip is set at the leanest setting, is this correct?
This problem came out after...
Hi, about a year ago my timing chain broke because a nut from the valve adjustment unskrewed itself and fell into the chain.
This happend in low speed/ 1gear. It was ’’easy’’ start at this time.
Just finished changing exhaust valve and mounting a new timing chain, tensioner, headgasket etc...
Hi guys,
Just thought I would start a thread for the 2013/2014 FE501 in SuperMoto form.
Please feel free to add pics of your bike and any information, ideas, pics, what has worked, what hasn't worked. Everything from brakes, tyres, plastics, tricks and tips.
First question;
Does anyone...
