I finally got a new battery in my 2002 501; however the starter will not turn the bike over (repeatedly) unless the compression release is engaged. Is this the proper way to start the bike, or should it start without the use of the compression release? I have only tried starting while the bike...
Ok guys, I need some help here. My ’09 FE570 is having a hard time starting: it takes about 5-7 seconds of cranking for the bike to finally start up and run. The big runs fantastic otherwise. I took the bike to the dealer, who got me a new computer flashed with the competition map (along with...
Hey, anyone know if the hard parts stabilizer (2010 fe 450) has replaceable/ exchangeable jets inside?
I want to be able to adjust from.....zero. mine seems a bit stiff still at "1"
thanks
I have the same sounding problem that hardenduro had. My 570 has 240 miles on it and I have replaced battery twice thinking that was the problem. Finally after checking every conncection, doing load tests, voltmeter testing, we hooked it up to car battery and same hard starting condition...
Hello, i have Husaberg FE 400 '03.
Since i bought it i had problems with ignition, first, the stator gone legs up so i bought a replacement Electrex. It worked excellent for 2 weeks and than fried my CDI, so i bought a replacement CDI from HPI Ignition which is in pair with the Electrex stator...
All,
When I bought my new 09 570 I mounted a set of hardparts radiator guards for obvious reasons. I followed the instructions given in the package, and the only obvious thing that I had to do was trim the top right side of the guard to clear the cable guide.
It wasn't until after...
I have a 2010 FE390 theres 11hours on it and i got the ecu flashed. Its always had problem starting i would have to give it a little gas for it to turn over even that wont always get it started. My buddy has a 09 FE450 and that thing starts no problem you just press the starter. 1 second later...
i have just had a bike in that absolutely had me beat.
it was bubbling in the radiator so i claimed that it must be the headgasket. no problem. i pulled the head off and scraped away the old stuff (a JBS gasket and they never come off clean) , i made a note that there was a dark ring...
My 09 570 is awesome everywhere except on hard-pack corners. It seems as though it could wash out at any stage. I have played with settings and fork height in the clamps without success. Now that I have seen that the 2010's have a 22mm offset I am thinking that this might be the way to go...
I have three bergs, 99 fx600, 98 fe600, 99 fc501. the fx600 will kick back hard when I try to start, the other 2 bike never do.. just wondering what might cause this, I about broke my ankle the other day... is there any thing that can be done to fix this?
During this long Canadian winter I tore apart the old 'berg to tackle some maintainance items before the riding season began. New intake valves, dual valve spring kit, new cam chain, new rocker arms, etc. I took the side cover off to install a Orangeberg seal kit as my waterpump seal had began...
Anyone know of a dealer who stocks exceptionally well, gives good prices, and ships fast? Need to order the airbox cover for washing, and the user control for the efi, plus a couple other things.
hi all, i have a 99 fc400, 2500klms, i live in australia about 100mt elevation. I purchased bike 2nd hand about 5 years ago, it has always been hard to start, i have played with the carby, i can either get it to start easy when cold but it has a flat spot or hard to start cold and smooth through...
hi all My fs650e starts first time everytime when its cold,I go for a blast and stop the engine after a couple of minutes i try to start it on the electric start...
I hear that when the bergs go upside down, that oil gets into the air box and they're hard to start?
How does this happen and what is the solution? Or how do you go about starting them after this happens? I'm thinking 08 berg.
Read in the doc about a burred up shift plate. My berg is getting grumpy shifting from hi to low gears. Just pull the cover, shifter/plate and file the uglies? Man that water pump seal has lasted like 70hrs or more, I guess it is time for some tlc.
Anyhow, is it a straight forward job once...
I purchased my bike knowing it needed some work. I did some tinkering. Still couldnt get to the bottom. Started with hard to start and hard to keep running. The shop found that one of the three screws that hold the stator on broke off, the other 2 were very loose and one was bent. So needless to...
My stepson and I had a great ride on fast rocky trails today and as usual the Berg did superbly, and I had no suspension issue after my weight drop. Actually, being in shape helps, go figure.
Anyway, I did had a nice wash, and found myself with my left leg stuck under the bike and before the...
Hi everyone,
The choke lever on my bike is impossible to reach (2000 FC600).
The lever is hidden up near the top of the carb between the frame rail and the tank and you need very skinny fingers to operate it.
It's been starting kinda OK without the choke, but has become VERY difficult on the...
