intermittent

During my ride last weekend my 2002 FE650 developed a dripping leak from the area of the left petcock above the exhaust pipe. The leak stopped after about 20 minutes. This has happened once in the past so I removed the petcock and added a gasket with sealant which seemed to fix the problem...

Hey ladies and gents Hoping that someone can help me out with an issue on my bike First up, apologies for the rough (and epically long) post; I'm writing this from a transit lounge on my phone, waiting for a plane... I've spent plenty of time reading other posts on the forum but...

Hello everyone, Got a bit of a conundrum with my berg. About 6 months ago i was riding home from work when my bike suddenly died. No mechanical crunches/bangs were heard, just rolled to a stop, a bit before that it was running slightly strange and it seemed to loose a little power. Anyway...

has anyone else had the problem with the "O" key button on the digital speedo, my button has to be pressed very hard and on different angles to get it to work, it drives me mad, sometimes it just doesn't work at all. i use trip 1 is for keeping an eye on fuel and trip 2 keeps an eye out on my...

"What's that about hindsight always being 20/20?!" :lol: Problem: Intermittent engine bogging issue shortly into ride. Similar to what it feels like when a 2 stroke is fouling a spark plug. - Engine would run perfect in garage and in staging area, but 5 minutes or so into ride this problem...

Would a pinched breather tube on the 70 degree fuel tank cause the bike to lose power nearly straight away? On the ride today, sometimes when I hopped off the seat or sat back down on it the bike would lose all power and then come back up to full power again. Checked all the electric plugs...

Ok, I have another infuriating problem. Last week, I was riding and everything was just fine. At one point, after one of many restarts, the bike started but then coughed and died. After that, it cranked fine, but wouldn’t fire. My first thought was that the dreaded hot-start, fuel-pump...

Hi all, Im having a bit of drama with my 2011 fe570. Twice now I have hit the start button to fire it up and get absolutely no response, no fuel pump, no starter motor, no lights, nothing at all. I test the battery and it has good voltage, all the fuses are ok and its not wet or full of mud etc...

I have an '08 550fe. I have been having an intermittent problem kick starting the bike. Always starts cold 1 or 2 kicks. Starts hot 1 or 2 kicks. But, on occasion I will have to kick the bike over repeatedly to get it to start. The last ride it took me 20 minutes to get it started. After...

Hi All In need of some help! My Berg has just started to hold a higher idle speed (approx 2500-3000 rpm) when shutting the throttle off for about 3-4 secs before returning to normal . It seems to be intermittent and only does it when warm.... Also i've noticed if you pull the clutch, the...

Not sure if its the clutch but the sound is coming from that area, sounds like a knackered bearing but its not there all the time and only at lower revs, any idea's?
