    Hard E-Starting - bad adjustment of auto-decomp

    I just bought a used 2005 FE450E; only 39 hours. It had the, now standard, starting issues. I am not mechanically gifted. (I learned everything from working on my 03 FE400 and using this site. Taffy, thanks for the Doc.) I think what I just experienced may be of interest to new Husaberg...

    Hard to start and poor runmning after tuning

    please help, today my bike went into the local dealer for tuning on rolling road. They have changed the main jet and and the slow speed jet? On the air fuel ratio chart at around 6k revs the peak was going way high, weak i believe. They changed the jets to try to overcome this. The graph...

    Recluse Hard Shifting

    Just installed a Recluse Auto Clutch in a '96 FC 501. Everything seems to be installed fine except that it has affected the shifting to where it is very "notchy". It does shift though. Has anyone had this experience? Thanks, Chuck

    Strange noise on hard launch

    The bike is an '05 FS650E with approx. 10 hrs. On pavement, when launching a bit more aggressively than normal (little more throttle and a bit of clutch slip) I'm hearing a brief sort of screeching/squealing noise seemingly from the RHS of the motor. I'm not sure exactly where from as it's...
