fix

Hi! Got a call from my mechanic today and got the verdict on my engine. Turns out i have a bad bearing, on the crankshaft, which in turn has caused damage to both piston and the cylinder liner. The work cost to fix it would be 3,300 SEK (318 EUR). But the parts cost about 14,000 SEK (1350...

Hi all Want to share this experience with you guys, on my FE400-02 I was having an oil leak from the sprocket shaft, and it was making a mess. A bit irritating :mad: First I thought it was the seal, and changed it, but it wasn't, the mess continued ... :mad: Looked again and noticed...

2011 570FE The idiot light for Hi-beam was on. Bar switch didn't work? Turned out to be Hi-Beam plug at headlight had come undone. Plug it back in. Done

Have a badly leaking right fork seal. looks like about 3 OZ/90 ml has leaked out so far. Is there a step by step on how to change seals and oil? Anything with pics or videos as well? I cant find anything on you tube. Or is a better to pay $165 to have it done? I keep hearing that these forks are...

This is a 2008 Husaberg FE550 with an Akrapovic Exhaust. I need your help. My bike started to show signs of what looked like some oil spraying around the where the exhaust meets the piston header. The oil is everywhere, so it is difficult trying to pin point where it is coming from, but I...

Just picked up a Fe570 and noticed the kick stand wasn't just removed it had broken off. Looks like the frame had a little shaft that stuck out a little from the frame and the kick stand should slide on there. That shaft is broken off. Anyone know of a way to fix it?

so i thought this might be of some interest for people with pre 03 husabergs wanting to fit newer wheels from ktms. last night i bought some wheels (26mm spacers) from a 2011 ktm they were talon hubs, ... and i made them fit without any money spent. ok the rear wheel although being 26mm had a...

I have an 11 FS570 SM I purchased new in spring 2012 for street riding only. The suspension is totally rigid on this thing. I am supposedly the target weight of 185 pounds. I have played with the clickers and sag to no avail. I am currently full out on compression and rebound with 100mm of...

as noted elsewhere, the countershaft or drive shaft splines can wear prematurely on the 70 degree bergs and ktm exc models. it seems the steel of the shaft isn't always that hard... i was thinking of trying the dirt tricks washer but essentially it just looked like a stronger version of the...

Does anyone know what way the tread goes eg left or right on the gear torque wheel to pull it apart and shim it????? and the best way to hold while undoing the bolt. :cheers:

So it was late Saturday night, just finished the LHRB install, thought I would put the bike back togethor, get it ready for a Sunday morning ride. I usually have a rule about not working after 10:00PM because brain starts shutting down, but figured I only had about 30 minutes left to finish the...

This is something I have used successfully several times. With all of the tanks being plastic, a small puncture from a tip over while miles away from home can be a real problem. I often ride long distances and come in to fuel stops on almost fumes, so losing even a few ounces of fuel can...

The stock water pump seal failed on my bike at 3k miles. It's never been ridden in the dirt and the shaft was found to be grooved, so a new seal didn't fix it. Found Kawasaki part # 92049-0104 seal will fit and is 1mm deeper, moving the sealing area away from the damaged area on the shaft...

Hello people, I've posted somewhere else in the electrical section on my continuing woes with the inadequate e-start performance of my 2002 FE400e... in short, it didn't e-start hot or cold despite all the suggested starter upgrades and perfect mechanical condition. Many modifications later I...

All, I mentioned briefly in the Nathan Woods ride day thread that my fuel pump had gone out during the ride. Well today I was able to find the problem and fix it. I had first checked to see if I was still getting voltage at the plug for the fuel pump, which I was. Once I got the tank off I...

I know most owners have had issues with starting at some point especially 650 so i want to share some tips with you that ive done recently as my 650 FE 07 now has the problem. I know bigger starter motors have been fitted but ive listed some info that may help, my argument is how come they work...

The information I have found on this site is why I donate to the site. 2010 FE 570 starting issues and fix Well over 6000 miles with a Rekluse For the last 800 miles the bike has progressively been getting harder to spin the engine at a constant starting RPM. Engine would stall (stop) cranking...

First time out on a brand new bike and I run out of fuel because the warning light didn't come on. There doesn' seem to be much to it - sensor in the back of the tank; connector about 6 inches away; loom; warning lamp. The bulb is OK and I oiked the tank out last night to look at the sensor...

I have just fitted the new improved MkII water pump kit from ORANGEBERG. The new kit has a larger bearing. The bearing in my MkI kit collapsed after many hours and coolant started to leak out the weep hole. I can't remember how many hours I did on the MkI kit before the bearing failed, but it...
