    Can't shift down sometimes FE450 -06 (550 -03 engine)

    Hi! Have swapped engine to a 550 -03 and it won't shift down sometimes. Mostly when i'm at low RPM's. It feels as when you have it in first and try to shift down. Shifting up again is no problem and I have to spam it to make a down shift. Changing the oil soon so I can have a look but...

    570 shift lever

    Could someone tell, that is there a similar sized lever like this https://ktmtwins.com/products/hammerhead-ktm1sl which would fit the 570? My footpegs are elevated significantly and the original lever is just long enough to put my boot under it. Hence I do a lot of misshifts

    Oil leaking around gear shift lever?

    I have a 2004 FE 450 that appears to be leaking oil from the gear shift lever, it also weeps a little bit from the kick start. I have a new seal for the kick start just have not got time to change it yet. Is the gear shift seal an easy seal to replace, or do i need to split the case? Thank you.

    Is it a shift drum?

    My 2001 fe501 has been spotty on shifting for the past 8-10 rides. Generally speaking it would not up shift until it warmed up. But today near the end of a tough ride in sand washes it became stuck in first gear and would not shift out, not even to neutral. Had to limp back to the truck...

    Shift lever

    I have been riding my 2011 Fe 570 for about 2 months now and have managed to adjust or replace most of the things that were not quite right for me. One thing I haven't been able to adjust or replace is the gear shift lever. It is too short for my size 12 MX boots and I have to lift my foot off...

    501FE (-96) shift drum question!

    Hi all!, I'm a bit confused about the shift drum in a 501FE 1996 engine, it's a 6 speed gearbox, but if I'm not wrong (which I probably am! :D ) I can only find 4 unique positions on the shift drum + neutral. (The bike was unable to start after a "repair" and sold) After the 4th gear in the...

    Will not shift to 3rd gear

    I have an 06 FE450, street plated. This weekend the transmission mis-shifted a couple times from 2nd-3rd gear. I would upshift and it would still be in second. It got bad on my ride home on the street, it took 5 tries to upshift before it finally grabbed the gear. Once it got third...
