Since my clutch cover needs replacing i thought of getting a rekluse clutch cover, but not the rekluse clutch which I don't like at all.... anyway it would increase my oil capacity and hence my 570 could venture further without the need of replacing oil. In theory... Anyone tried this? How much...
Hello,
I am new to this so go easy!
My cousin bought a 2015 FE 450 on Saturday, it had done 50 miles from new, anyways drives it back (less than 300 miles now) all good.
Next day spotted it had been leaking, so he's started looking and took out the air filter and it looks like a mix...
Hi all
Want to share this experience with you guys, on my FE400-02 I was having an oil leak from the sprocket shaft, and it was making a mess. A bit irritating :mad:
First I thought it was the seal, and changed it, but it wasn't, the mess continued ... :mad:
Looked again and noticed...
I have a 2011 FE 570S. It has WP Closed Cartridge. Had the suspension lowered about three years ago. Probably time to change the fork oil. Do I need to change oil in the closed cartridge, or can I just change oil in the sliding tube/ spring chamber. Thanks
howdy ya'll I've been on ever Web site, check every store I can seem to find a cartridge filter anywhere.
when I bought the bike all it had was the washable steel mesh filter, is that the only filter for this bike?
also k&n website says they have a filter for all four strokes in the year 1996...
Has anyone ever done this? Or wants to do it? More oil capacity and cooling as well. Something like this? But a filter. I also want to do wet ignition at the same time, so I would have about 3 liters?
Just acquired an 09 450. Changed oil and screens including banjo. How crucial is this to check at each oil change? I assume the bolt correctly aligns with specified torque? Thanks in advance
I pulled my spark plug today (first time since I bought the bike) to have a peek at its condition, and lo and behold the threads were coated in oil. That's not good.
I also pulled my breather checkvalve and it had some pooled oil inside, so I'm hoping it's coming from there and not the rings...
I have a 08 FE450, i want to use for adventure dual sporting and commuteing, i have been wir th the idea of fitting an aftermarket oil tank. To double or triple the change intervials.
So has anyone dine this? What problems may i expect to run into? I don't want to affect oil pressure or strain...
Husaberg 650fs 2002. I buy it for 2 week ago.
The engine eats oil, after riding around 1 hour and it has takes around 2-3dl of oil. Not smoking, and no leaking? Dont se oil in the engine glass when the bike is off and straight.
I have adjust the valves to, with 1/6, but i think i have little...
i have this '08 FE450 that i bought about 3 months ago from a reputable dealer who,although he didn't have the reciept to show me assured me it had had a complete engine overhaul to the value of £1200,it runs really sweet,I decided to track down the previous owner who was very helpful and...
Done a top end freshen up on my berg at 550 hours, it really did not need it appart from the buggered counter shaft. It was running great, no oil burning, So done a few bits and pieces including a Prox piston. Have just pulled it down at 650 hours because it is burning oil, not heaps but 200 mls...
I have been reading this site for about two weeks now and enjoying doing so. I never came across concentrated topic of recommend oils and additives. Most interesting would be if "old timers" would be willing to share their verified successful experience. What oil and additive have shown to be...

Found a piece of metal stuck to the drain plug.
My bike is an 08 FE450 has around 200 hrs.
Couldn't honestly say if it has had any work done to the motor previously. Only had it a couple of months.
The peice of metal sticks to a magnet.
Is it time to look at the top end or pull...
