I can't remember the last time i asked a question instead of answering one! But anyway, what is the spring rate required on the rear of an old Husaberg with the linkage system? SAG settings? Some of your own experiences? cheers Taffy

Can any of you guys tell me what oem rear spring the 570 comes with? Id like to make it softer and the current spring says 76 (not fitted by me). TIA!

Does anyone have any experience with progressive rate springs for the PDS shock? I think the progressive rate may interfere with the damping settings, meaning the damping may be hard to dial in correctly. Is this true? I have to stiffen up the rear and I have the option to go progressive or...

I have read on this forum and KTM talk that Husaberg underestimate the spring rates required to set up the bike correctly. If this is so, what rates should I be running for the fork and shock? 2012 TE 300 90 kg Rider, 102 kg in full gear I'm just a trail rider and don't want the full-on "race...

Hello Group, Well, took delivery of a new 2011 FE450 on May 12/11, and after 2.6 hours of riding over three days, the fuel pump failed. Dealer now says pump is on back order, ETA approximately five weeks. The pump failures are being blamed on sediment from the fuel tank bonding process...

Anyone got a link to a chart with ktm / husaberg spring rates etc. found one the other day but didn't book mark it and do you think i can find it again? just ordered a new spring. wanted the PDS10, already running a PDS8 shop sends me the wrong spring. Sales said no you've got the right one...

Just replaced my 04 FE 550 with an 09 FE570 and as I'm 97 KGs was going to replace the springs. My question is should I go straight rate or do the progressive springs work better in these bikes for trail riding, single track, rocky terrain. I am not the fastest guy or the slowest. Thanks for the...

I weigh 98kg with all my riding gear on, and ride predominately rutted single track. At 16 hrs on the bike, today I checked static and rider sag: Static Sag was exactly per manual at 35mm. This is spot on. Rider Sag is 116mm (11mm over 105mm recommended ) standing up and 128mm sitting down...

Hi all, New here. from Israel, Telaviv area.. :o , with new berg fe390, gr8 bike but the rear spring for my weight 95 kg is poor... the rebound is like trampolina... what is the right spring rate for 92-95 kg with no equipment. any recommendation for the rear and front rate? I sow the...

Looking through the owners manual for the 2010 Husabergs, it says that a 7.6 rate spring should work for those up to 200 pounds or so. I go 230 with no gear. So, on my 2010 FX 450, following that logic, I install a 8.0, set the static at 35mm, and proceed to check the race sag. 125mm 8O...

I'm 114 KG and I'm wondering what spring rate i should use for my forks in my FE650E 2004 I'm currently using 0.46 KG/mm springs. i ride manly enduro on old dirt roads and trails

I am having hard time finding the proper spring rate for my rear shock. The spring on my bike has no marking on it, so I don't know what it is, but it is way too stiff. I am not able to set a proper sag. Does anybody know what spring to use for my weight ( 155 lb without gear and I use the bike...

Dear wise men, I run an off-road business and we use 8 husabergs, all 2004 models. The last half year or so I am burning lighting coils at a fairly high rate and I start to wonder if I might be doing wrong. I don't bother anymore to fix the the front & rear lights. especially on the rear...

having noticed in the doc and on the bike, an '06 450 that the spring is straight rate. would fitting my progressive rate spring have any serious downsides. really i mean will it cause anything to break. shock working poorly i can sort out, shock broken not so easy or cheap. and to...

Hi - can anyone tell me what the standard shock spring rate was for the 2001 FE 400 E ? Cheers.

Hi, I ride a 04 FE450E. I got a spare pair of fork springs when I bought my bike from the previous owner, the box they are in says .042's, but I'm dubious as to what they really are....why would the guy go out and buy the same springs that came with the bike as new. He weighed approx...

Folks, is anybody having an idea how to tell the 4.2N/mm fork springs (2004s) from 4.4N/mm ones?? Thanks TheEngineer

Hi guys! I'm looking for the recommended spring rates for the 04' FS650. Stock is: front 4.4 Nm/mm, rear 84 Nm/mm. I'm +95kg's with gear. Does anyone have the recommended spring rates laying around? The partslist only gives a couple of suggestions, one step harder or one step softer. I'm...

I'm helping a friend set up his 'berg. It's a 2000 501 that he's using in the woods. He weighs 220#, 240# w/gear. Currently has stock ?? springs up front and a PDS-2 in the rear. Choosing the fork springs should be no problem, but... 1. Anyone know the stock fork spring rate? 2...
