Hello, I bought a 2001 fe400 with a 2001fx470e engine in frame off and old man a month back and have blown it up twice already. First the bearing for the counter balance broke, not too big of a deal fix that and rode it for 15hrs and it seems as though the rings on the piston have let go. Was...

Okay, so my carb was leaking fuel , so I pulled the phillips screw & easily extracted the brass fitting w/way worn out o rings (3) . I stopped at the KTM shop locally, no go. I ordered the kit from fleybay & it got lost in the mail. I really want to ride this bike ! So beings its fuel im sure...

Hey guys it was determined my 2008 450 has a 380 enduro kit on it anybody got a part number on the rings for it?

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've replaced the rings on my 2004 FE450, and after starting, the bike seems to be vibrating and feeling more lumpy than before. I split the engine from the right hand side, and didn't touch the left (clutch side) at all, leaving the covers in place. I found I could lift the crank slightly...

I am replacing the rings on my 600. After I took the top end off the lower oil ring got bent from cleaning. I can't believe how fragile the oil rings are. As I only have only done two stroke's before what is the procedure for installing the rings? Is it best to use a ring compressor...

Hi guys, I need a new set of piston rings for my 2000 model FC600. It's still got the original (I think) 'ASSO-WERKE' piston. Ring gaps are outside tolerance, so bike was smoking badly but the piston and cylinder bore are both OK. Does anyone know where i can get a set of rings for this...

Is there an aftermarket piston/ring set available for an 05 650? I broke my oil control ring and it got me wondering if there is a better option out there. Imput would be greatly appreciated!

I'm looking for specs for piston ring end gap, side gap, and con-rod big-end side clearance for the 96 Fe-600. I'm upgrading cam-chain and decided to check some things as long as the wrenches are out. 8) 8) thanks, DC

few months ago i bought a new wossner piston for my 95 fe 600. i ordered it by a wossner dealer not from my husaberg dealer-the price was 100e down. there is a chance that the piston is faulty, the oil rings and the piston groove for them might be different. i just want to know exactly...
