selector

Hi, So I was riding along and went to shift down a gear. As I do, I hear a metallic clunk and my gear lever goes limp and won't reset itself. Manage to get to where I was going and turn the bike off for 5 mins. Go to try and start it again to get home and the E starter is just whining. Tried...

Hey does the side cover have to come off to replace these 2 seals? Which would entail water pump and kick starter mechanism being disassembled? Cheers mike

Hi all I have a very slow oil leak from my gear selector shaft, where it pops out from the left side engine case. As far as I know its a simple o-ring fix and most bergs do it to a certain degree anyway, but mine is beginning to get worse. Im going to tackle it before it completely lets go...

The new map selector switch is available from KTM hardparts. http://www.ktm-parts.com/77239974000.html It looks it will fit Husaberg as well. http://www.ktm-parts.com/mm5/graphics/0 ... 974044.pdf It is a combination of the old one switch with more compact one mounted on the handlebar. The...

Hi All, I recently snapped my gear selector in a low side slide. Luckily Taffmeisters managed to get hold of 1 for me for £70 with a note, "It's not who you knew, it's what you know." I still chuckle when I read it. Well now I've found the time to replace the part and so I've done so and taken...

Hi, does anyone know what material the gearbox selector drum for a FX 470 is made from. Mine has had the point knocked off on 4th gear position so will consider a weld rebuild if I can identify the material. Cheers, Stu

Need some help with reinstalling the selector drum and the position star on my 2002 650. First question is a stupid one but I'm still gonna ask it to avoid later worries, is there any way to install the selector forks wrong in the selector drum? Or is there only one way? The installation went...

i've just fitted the later gear selector claw today and will report how it goes. the boss that fits into the engine case now sits on a shoulder of welded metal that forces the base plate 3mm away from the engine instead of 1.5mm. the base plate and the claw plate are far thicker at...

has or can anyone take; a photo of an 'o3-'05 gear selector close up? i know they redesigned them so i'm interested in what they did? regards Taffy

the drums run straight out of the cases and i have considerable wear in the engine and some on the drum shoulder. it seems that they only contact over half the width of the allowed surface. anyone else ever spotted this upon stripping? whilst i'm here has anyone handled the later gear...

Hi guys, need some more help, at the moment I'm rebuilding my engine after replacing all the bearings. Thouble is the manual instructs that one of the pins on the selector drum (the pins that locate the selector star) should have a flat end, and this pin when positioned towards the front of the...

Hi folks, I have seen a number of comments about needing to get to the gear selector mechanism and clean it up once in a while. My 650 gearshift is starting to get quite notchy and tight - is this the symptom? If so does anyone know of a link to a technical "how to" write up? I have...
