Hello. My drain plug hole on my Husaberg fe450 is stripped and I've drilled it out and tap it to the next size.
But it seems that the treads are not so good and do not seal.
What are your thoughts on using the drain plug with the oil screen to drain oil and glue the main drain plug In...
Been awhile since i've been on here, hello all! Took my 570 for a blast today, first time in over a year due to mechanical issues and work commitments. It has been pretty hot here of late so i have been putting off the running in of my new engine. Today however was quite mild and i just couldn't...

Motor runs but now has a hole in the head so the oil is bleeding out :shock: I guess i need to get a new/used cilinder head. :( Any ideas? Sites for parts? Used parts? Please let me know. Appreciate it! :wink:
Best regards Cas
My FE 390 has always boiled gas and overheated; like my wife I knew what I was getting when I signed on. Two rides ago, I was over heating, boiling gas, and dribbling coolant out my weep hole 10 miles from nothing while trail blazing. In a hope to just get home I filled the radiator with water...
My freinds,
It seems to be a easy/cheap trick to pick up a spare pony or two, at least on the newer bikes.
my question, is it a waste of time (and a seat) on the older bikes with two air filters or is there still some benefit there?
it seems like the side frame filter on the older bikes is...
Hi guys,
Im finally putting my berg back together.
Will be more active once its running.
Im refitting the starter motor, looking at the hole where the starter motor goes in - to the left of it there is a threaded hole, that will be covered by the starter motor once its fitted.
Should this...
Can't seem to fix it. Found a grooved shaft first time, then set a new seal backwards which worked for a few races. Now I put a tube in the weep hole and it alternates water and oil. It's like a constant loss system. Taffy mentioned the balancer bearing can cause the wp seal to groove the...
what is the hole in middle of oilfilter cover? In my bike there is screw in it. Could it be used to measure oil temprature with somekind of sensor? I have koso speedo and it can be used with 2 temprature sensors, thats why im curious.
I have read on here some where about a bleed point for the coolant system on the head??
I have looked over my 02 650 and it does not seem obvious, could some one post me a pic up please or point me in the right direction............... :?
Haskell in Idaho told me about this fix he made for his 09 570 to keep the junk out of the weep hole, and the water pump shaft area. Anyone who has replaced their water pump seal on the 09 on up bikes has probably found a good deal of grit in the area between the water pump seal and the engine...
My 2005 FE550e is leaking oil out of a screw hole in the left side cover. It seems to be next to an oil passage on the cover and I was wondering if it needs a crush washer maybe or if it is a bigger problem. the gasket or cover are not leaking they are properly seated, it leaks around the head...
Now I'm not finding this easy to believe....
I mean I really could never, ever, imagine somebody, even an a$$hole, intensionally doing something like this, so I hope this is easily explained.
Took mi Berg into a local garage for an MOT. Also took a horn in that I was given last MOT, but have...
Hello All,
I removed the white plastic tail piece on my 2009 570 this weekend as part of a thwarted effort to fit a new end can (it didn't fit :( ) and so was able to inspect the rear plastic subframe . I noticed that there is a hole in mine (picture attached). The hole looks like a...
Hey guys,
I'm looking to simplify this by making a list of "must change" and "should change" parts for the famous "weep hole leak" be it oil or just coolant.
KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid)
Trying to make this easier for FNG's like me (Freakin' New Guy).
I need to do the fix ASAP since my baby...
Hi,
tonight i started to take apart my fs650 engine to do some service on it. My problem is i can´t find any plug or hole where i´m suppose to place the engine locking bolt as described in the repairmanual for the 05 engine (downloaded from .se). Is there a new way to lock the engine on 06...
you can see the little hole with the rust-coloured crap coming out of it, just forward of the join on the exhaust. what the hell is it for?? am i missing a vital component/screw? or am i worrying about nothing and its supposed to be there to scare new berg owners as it spews forth rust...
My 650 had developed a slight weep of oil from around 20 hours.
I am at 109 hours now and today I noticed the color has changed
to powdery white mixed with the oil.
Oil looks fine in the sight glass and coolant looks fine. Just the color
of the weep has started to change.
What's happening...
