    Valve seal without pulling the head?

    Any of you had any luck replacing valve seals without pulling the head to compress the spring? Needing to do them on both our bikes. Mine (the wife) 09 Fe450, & his 16 Fe501s (husky). Basically looking to see if anyone has had success with the "on bike" spring compressors. If so, which 1's.

    Just thought I'd write this journey for anyone with a 17mm axle LC4 Front wheel doing a conversion to 20mm and hopefully this will prevent a few trial and error bits along the way.

    12-15 450SXF head on 570

    Per Thumper Racing on KTMTalk, the 12-15 450SXF head bolts up to the 530 and provides decent gains, plus more cam options. I imagine I'll need to modify it for the oil drain similar to using a 530 head on a 70 degree bike. Has anyone here done this? Is it worth it? I'd like a few more...

    Hey guys I have done all the research for installing a new headlight I purchased. The light only has a negative and a positive lead on it, I used a test light on the stock headlight 3 prong connector and do not have any power to it. Does the bike have to be running in order to get voltage to...

    Hi again! So after a little ride out today I found out that the head gasket is actually knackered. It started to smoke from around the head which smelt quite sweet so I assume that was the coolant and there's also oil seeping from the seal which was a give away. I am new to this so please...
