settings

Hi! i just finished the engine rebuild, when i start the bike the engine runs fine with choke on, as soon i choke off it dies. I cleaned carefully the carb, the idle jet is 42, the main jet 190, the needle clip is set at the leanest setting, is this correct? This problem came out after...

Does any one have or know where I can find the stock suspension settings? The number of clicks for the rebound and compression. 2008 Fe550 Thanks

Has anybody installed the full akra system an a FE600. If yes, did you have to chance the carb settings? If yes, what is your setting?

Hello all. I picked up a '91 husaberg off of someone that needs some love to run again. The previous owner told me he cleaned the carb but I can't get the bike the bike to start. Being that it kicks over, I'm thinking either spark or carb settings. Does anyone have any favorite baseline...

Just wondering what the torque settings for the head of a fs650c 08 is. Don't have a manual, is there anywhere to download a free one? Cheers Andy

Hi I have a 2005 fs650e just bought and the previous owner had the forks rebuilt. I live in San Francisco riding the steep streets. the front end feels a lil soft coming to a complete stop using the front brakes and I seen they compressed along way down the shaft after I did some wheelies. Im...

Hi Guys I took the plunge and got a Vapor, can anyone who is using these please share what they have set for high temp, danger temp, gear shift rpm and danger rpm ? thanks in advance! Gary

Hello again So I've blown out my carb now. The bike fires right up with the choke on, idles way too high, then mellows down. Feather the throttle, and she's dead. Turn off the choke and get the same result. Wandering what a good starting point is for stop screw and idle screw. Probably...

I am 6-2, over age 50 and weigh 230lbs wearing my riding gear. Add a tank bag and back back with water hydration and the weight goes higher. I don't really want to keep adding more and more money into a new bike that I already spent alot of money on. With that said, when I purcahsed the bike...

hello, i have a husa 300 and use it for some soft enduro-riding, but i also like to use it for fullcross-purposes. in my manual the biggest jet is a 170, but in the manual there is said that these jets don't count for riding in sand-conditions.. the biggest jet i had was a 180, i tried that...

Hi everyone. My first valve check was done by the dealer but its time for #2 and I want to do it myself. I have looked through 7 different threads on this site so pretty comfortable with the 1/6 method. What i did not find here or in any of the manuals is the torque setting for the valve cover...

Just purchased a new 2010 FE390 and am an intermediate ride, love the bike, but contrary to what everyone says, I find the suspension a bit stiff in the front at my pace, which is probably far below the pace of the racers that think it is too soft. Right now, I'm 18 out on R and C up front and...

How much should the front fork sag under riders weight? How do you mesure it?

I crushed my map switch ( dont ask how) and would like to set the bike to the agressive setting and leave it there. I was told I could add a resistor to the plug and achieve this BUT I read in the MXA test of the FX-450 that the different settings can be accessed by removing the wire or wires...

I'm a new owner of a 2009 FE450 as of last week. I just finished up break-in and I love this bike. This is a new bike for me, though, so I'm still getting to know it. The dealer installed the EFI map switch and loaded the latest maps before I picked it up. Can anyone tell me which map switch...

hi there, my fe600e runs like it has a powerband,it seems to die and even backfire slightly sometimes at mid revs then it takes off like a bullet,i have disassembled the carb and blown it out with compressed air a couple of times but it still does it,sometimes worse than other times,it also pops...

Hey! I have a Husaberg FS650e -05 with Akrapovic whole system. And atm i have the current "jets" 160, 45, 8.5 and the needle OBEKR at 3rd from top. Is this a correct setup? Can i improve my bikes preformance by changing something here?

Hi there. I just purchased a z-start pro for my husaberg an wanted to see what settings folks are using / what's ideal. I know much of it is personal preference, but would love to hear some advice before installing. I ride a fair amount of desert, but also do a fair amount of singletrack...

For the first time today i used a torque wrench to tighten up my forks in the clamps. the settings i was given are 15 & 20 nm, this appeared very slack and i could tighten them up more with an allen key quite easily. are these settings correct or could something have worn in the clamps ?
