I had always thought that the factory just forgot to install the kick start activated decompression system in this bike. I just assumed that someone forgot to drill the hole in the case by the kick starter for the lever and the next person down the line just let it go. Now I am not so sure. Upon...
Ok. I feel like an idiot. I changed my clutch cover gasket that was leaking and when I put everything back together did the normal spin it over a few times with the button and and then kick. Started 1st kick. So here i am basting tin the glory of the one kick -kick start and the I noticed the...
I see from browsing this site no ones ever asked this question before...(not) but anyway, I've just bought an 02 501FE - takes an hour to start from cold on the kick (single kick when hot). I've seen various posts and comments on starting problems / de-compressors / TDC / valves etc.
My...
Hi!
I have changed the kick axle and I am now not sure how to engage the clutch in order to get the exact cam position vs piston position. Se picture. The obvious answer is to place the dot on cam gear in between two dots on main gear.
The kick axle retaining the arm engaging kick gear is...
poor MotoXotica is trying to replace my water pump seals, say they can't get the kick starter off my bike. This is the kinda dirt bike mechanic stuff I dread. I hope they get my bike fixed and back together today so I can ride it this weekend. wish em luck.

Okay well I have been searching but before I started digging in where everyone else was suggested there was one thing the others didn't have that I had, the bike was running fine then died.
I JUST bought the bike, test rides were all fine, bike...
Does anyone know where I can find an aftermarket kickstand for a 2002 550FC. I do alot of trail riding and its a pain in the *** finding something to always lean my bike up against.

Hey Folks,
Not sure if you have ever experienced a cracked kickstart retaining washer? Thanks to my ham fisted ways....i have. After much searching I found a good quality hardened washer that will replace the stock one. It is Caterpillar part # 9X-6165. It appears to be an "in stock" item...
I had to do some work on my bike as the gear selector was stuck. Cleaned up, readjusted the valves.
Kick start mechanism was of course a pain to put back (with the darn ratchet held by that crescent thingy).
Now the bike starts A LOT more easily, EXCEPT that the kick start does not "click"...
Hi guys,
I've bought an 04 FE450E, with a broken kick starter lever. I would like to replace it, but can't seem to find one anywhere second hand (tried Ebay etc. to no avail). Do you know if there is another starter lever that fits the berg? I tried one from a KTM LC4, way too big... I'm in...
i was going to sell my 00 501 e to purchase a leftover 05 mod my dealer had , after sleepless nights ( due to how much $$ i have in the bike and what i could get for it ). i have decided to keep it . rode it over the weekend and my battery needs replacement . it has for a few months now , no...
How much tension should there be before assembling the side case. I put it straight on and it would not return. Do I need to make one revolution clockwise before assembly?
Thanks,

Hi All,
Having a problem kicking me berg off. Its a FX650e, but has the lecky start removed. The problem is on the kick there seams to be a lot of resistance to getting the motor spinning, more than on other 650 bergs. There is no way the starter would spin it over. I have done all the...
Hello guys:

I was riding in Idaho City this weekend when I broke my kick start lever shaft on my 03 501. I was wondering if anybody has ran into this problem and is it a complicated fix?
Thanks EuroEnduro
Hi
Being a Husaberg owner ('03 FS650e) for approx 40hrs, am wandering if anybody else has experienced their kickstart breaking!
The shaft coming out of the casing that attaches to the arm has sheared!
Does anyone have any idea of cost for this part?
Bit gutted, I wanted my first post on...
