shock

Im going to try again this weekend. I have a 2001 FE501 as far as i know it is standard I onlt picked it up earlier this year. I need to get the rear shock off for a rebuild (leaking oil down the 'shaft') A while back I poped the caps off the swing arm, Cracked the nut wound it off a few...

I have a 1999 FC 501. Installing the rear shock, what is the best way to align the bottom hole of the WP shock so the bolt can be put in? Very tight and difficult to maneuver...any great easy tips out there? Thanks!

Looking at picking up a 96 FE400 but the shock bled dry when the owner replaced the swingarm. He said it didn't leak before the swingarm work. Is this a serious problem? Is a new shock needed? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

hi im after some advice i have a husaberg fe650 supermoto 2003 and i need to adjust my rear shock never touched a rear shock before what i have found is my rear wheel is touching the exhaust from time to time must be when its wheeling so i need to firm it up abit ,i have already tightened the...

Anyone know when you can download the official "Front fork setting list" and "Shock setting list" for 'bergs? I've managed to blag a couple of photo copies from the dealer, but they do not specifically say they are for my 2011 FE570. The ones I have are article numbers 14457K02 (fork) and...

I've been able to test a 2010 FE570 shock against my 2009 FE570 rear shock. upon investigation I found that my shock has FX shimstacks in there but not the bottoming needle seen on various KTMs from 2010 such as the SXC, EXC and SX. the FE is great and no complaints till you're in a rush and...

I was wondering if I could fit the swingarm and rear shock from an '06 FE550 to my '00 FC501? I may be wrong, but looking at my bike and the 550, I cannot spot differences on the frame other than engine area Any thoughts?

I put this up in the classifieds but wasn't too keen on having my address on zee net to took it down again. Anyway, I have a brand new shock from a 09 570 FE for sale, based in the UK but can ship anywhere if you're prepared to pay. I deal if you want to switch between offroad and SM. £225...

Hey all, I have a 2011 FE570. I just installed the 70 Deg Racing subframe tank and I figured while I had the bike stripped down I would take the opportunity to wrap the midpipe exhaust and cut down on heat below the tank. I know it was tight, but I can't recall how much clearance I had...

I have a 2010 FX450, I like it a lot but its really crap in long off road type ruts, It tries to climb out of the ruts all the time and if you got a bit of pace on and you slow it shakes its head really bad to the point of crashing. To counter that the bike will turn on a six pence, it will...

last week i rode around a bumpy mx track for about 30 minutes then i noticed something wrong with the rear end the shock had lost all its damping after letting it cool down i went out on the track again and shure enought it again lost its damping both comp and rebound what causes the shock to...

Hi, My 09 FE450 has a leaking shock after 50 hours!! Strange? or is it common problem. very unhappy because of that. quite a big drops as well. I noticed it after 3 hour ride. Also it feels like it has a play and there is quiet knock when I lift the bike. Question is where do I service it in...

I just bought one. going to try since my stock shock seal only last about a year. any one have any experience with it ? Regards

I dropped my shock off at the shop to have the oil changed. I’m told that when he opened the valve to release the nitrogen, a geyser of oil shot out. He said that the oil and nitrogen were completely mixed and that he had never seen that before. The piston was plastic and a bit deformed. The...

I have a450 09 i am trying to work out how to adjust the slow an high speed adjustment on the rear shock , can any one tell me when i should be playing with either adjustment thanks

Anybody taken a shock out of a 99 bike? Cant get mine of the swingarm, took the bolt out and its solid. The shock moves about on the bearing but I cant budge it out of the swinger. Am I missing something or is it just 11 years of sitting there? :( Tried levering, hitting , swearing but its not...

Following on from this thread : http://www.husaberg.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=13283&p=112548&hilit=swarf#p112548 Basically the bike was stuck in gear after having my sump plugged re tapped. Changed the oil and put about 10hrs on it and the gearbox was a pig. Changed the oil again yesterday...

I spoke to terry a coupla years ago and he was talking about how the WP progressive spring was too harsh too soon and not a real progressive at all. I see that Terry now sells his own which I take it are sorted how he suggested to me. so, has anyone tried one? presumably they are best tried...

Mate looked at my bike the other day and pointed out that my rear spring was actually rubbing on my exhaust. Anyone else have this problem and whats the fix ?

ive just gone up on the springs on my fe 450 front 4.6kgs and the rear to a 72kgs my weight is 83kgs with out gear. the front feels great but the rear feels like it's blowing through way to quickly so i increased the high speed compression which helped slightly, so i contacted my nearest dealer...
