Hi All-
I know its a bit of a long shot, but I am looking for ways to extend the fuel range for rally on my 08 FE550 beyond what I get from my Clarke tank. Does anybody have any tanks available, or other good solutions?
Cheers!
Matthew
Hey all, I'm 5'11" and having a hell of a time getting comfortable standing on my fe550. I feel like I am falling over the bars. I know these bergs are supposed to put your over the front, but the problem is my hands feel way too close to my knees. I tried the stock bars for awhile, then my...
Hi, New to this forum here. just picked up an 08 550 with the 4 gallon clark tank(black tank is ugly), will be looking for a stock one soon. Even with big tank, love the bike. Way easier and nicer to ride and race then a 94 CR 500.lol Just dont like the cam chain side breather throwing...

Hello - I have a relatively new to me '06 FE550. The suspension was done by RPS Suspension in NorCal who so far as I can tell is out of business. My understanding is it was setup for desert and 230 lb rider (which I am). I rode it a few times on single-track, the desert, and fireroads. The...
anyone else have problems with swing arm and shock bearing kits? used all balls ones, came with wrong spacers I ended up breaking them jacking the swingarm into the chassis. (perhaps I should've stopped earlier). shock bearing seals were also ***** and fell out straight away. any recommendations?

Hi All,
Having some sticky gear changes with my 05 fe 550. Recently (10hr) did a rebuild. Changed gearing a little since then. Impossible to get it into neutral from 1st if standing still. Is this a worn Clutch master/slave cylinder? Not enough pressure to fully release plates? or something...
Just want some advise. I would be a first time Berg owner and looking to buy this bike. It has some km's on it but seems to be well maintained, regular oil/filter changes, valve adjustments. So he says. Just wondering how many km people have seen on these bikes before you are looking at doing...

I couldn't find a similar issues in the previous posts...so:
Cold starting no problem, but after about 10 min of riding I have to put the bike in neutral and pull the hot start on the carb, crank it for 4 seconds and then give a blip on the throttle and it will start up. Would this be exhaust...
