rebuild

I know it's not my berg, thats being done next winter, but I thought I'd share it with you anyway. It's a 2003 WR250F which I have been racing for a year. It was looking a bit rough after a hard season, the last race was a 24 hour enduro in Wales which took it's toll on just about everything...

Hi there - Great site and content By way of introduction, I am from Auckland New Zealand, and being a 40's something, have a bit of a passion for 80's era mx/enduro bikes. I have a restored 1989 ATK 250 and 1987 Cagiva WMX 250 from this era of experiment and new technology, a white knuckle...

Hi I'm living in Sydney, Australia and need to find a trustworty and competent engine rebuilder for my 1998 FE600E. The electric start needs sorting as well and I know that can increase cost a little due to replacement items. I hope someone can offer a suitable referal as efforts to engage...

Hi, the saga of my 01 470 rebuild continues. Iv'e made a new liner, rebuilt the dogs on the g/box, rewelded the swingarm boss crankcase crack now only to find a crack in the crank radiating from the large lightening hole to to crank edge on the drive side flywheel. Im seriously considering...

G'day Men, I seem to have had some success rebuilding the front shocks, thanks everyone for their help. The rear shock on this beast looks like its been converted to a shrader valve, I'd like to know how much gas is left in it but I'm affraid if I check it with my trusty tyre gauge i'l let it...

Hi all, Okay, we also swapped the chassis but that isn't Husaberg stuff, engine only thus. As some perhaps have followed, we use a FC550 '02 in a AYR sidecar chassis for MX. This winter I decided to rebuild the engine and wanted to have some extra bottom to compensate for the bigger engines...

I've seen a few topics like this before and know that when pulling the cases off you can pull the lickstart shaft by mistake etc. What I have is after putting it all back together the kickstart pushes through it's swing fine and returns to it's starting position however at the top position I...

I have bought a kinda cheap FC550 '03 engine lately. The owner mentioned in the advertisement it needed a new Big-end. In this thread I will describe the rebuild of this engine to use it in upcoming SM season. (in my current bike I have an '02 FC550 engine which will be replaced by this one)...

Hi guys!! Today, I made an attempt to start my bike for the first time ever and after rebulid. Well it didnt start!! :( I`ve never started a husaberg, and never a 4-stroke, so maybe it isnt so strange that it didnt start. I have electrical start, but it seems like the freewheel is slipping...

I have an fe 501 2004 model with about 2000 miles on the clock, recently it it started to leak oil badly from where the centre cases join. so i have striped the engine down to see what parts i need, so far i need a new cam chain and bottom sprocket ( i cracked it pulling it off) head gasket...

Dismantled my 2005 550 recently. 129hrs After thrashing it all year, I was suprised to find little wear Ring gap was within normal limit ( But replace anyway ) Timing chain stretched like an old rubber band Piston and sleeve normal no major scratches Clutch friction plates 2 distorted (...

Greetings all, Just thought I'd give you all a quick run down on my recent engine rebuild. As you may or may not have read in my last ride report, my 2004 550 just quit one day while I was riding it, at low rev's and in a very good location. The cause turned out to be a broken...

Hello guys. my motor is gone, the clutch side mainbering is shot. I'm currently staying in Utah on a vacation and I'm vondering if any of you guys knows where i can find a dealer? so i can buy me some spare parts cheap before i go home to Iceland. thanks

How much should an engine rebuild cost? I've taken the engine out of the frame and will happily put it back in but want to know how much a refresh of all the bearing and gaskets maybe piston and valves would cost.

Hi everyone, I was given a 1994 501 fe in pretty good shape, Except blown motor. Thought i would split the cases and rebuild. Of course i dont have the correct fly wheel puller, So i decided to send it off to closest dealer, about 200 miles away. Anyway my question is how much do you think...
