shock

The manual has me a bit confused on the maximum shock preload allowed on a 08 fe450. I’m trying to get a PDS4 spring in the rider sag range. At 10mm preload I need to go a little bit more in the sitting position, 12mm should get me in the range. Static sag is way off but if the spring...

Hello. Is it a 12mm that I need? haven't got one big enough so heading out to buy one. Thanks

question...i have the old 01fe650 .thinking about getting the rear shock rebuilt/re valved/serviced etc.this thing has no hs adjustment.would it be worth spending any money on this old shock or should i toss it and upgrade.anyone had the new and the old to compare? what are your thoughts?..weed..

Just noticed the difference between clicker adjustments on these two years. 05 stock settings are 15 compression 22 rebound with 2 out on HS. 06 runs the opposite 22 compression and 15 rebound with 2 out HS. I assume this is not a typo and that the shock was configured differently for the...

Hey guys. i put the bike away for winter now and finally have time to setup the suspension properly. guess i would have had time in the summer, had i been able to stay off the thing! anyways, my 07 FS 650E has a shock spring 88-250 and im assuming the fork springs are also standard...

I got a few Pm’s so thought I should write some words on the TTX44. Ohlins TTX44 for a 2008 KTM 450 in the 650. Its 1.5Kg lighter than the WP shock I tried to get a proper end and have it valved for the husaberg but no one seemed to want to know about it. so the easy way is to just...

So... I'm in the middle of greasing and cleaning stuff and I notice that - #1 - Somewhere along the line my shock spring got put on upside down (Not by me)... #2 - My rebound clicker is frozen solid. Remedied #1 by turning the spring over, as for #2, I'm at a loss. Without tearing...

Read some stuff on KTMTalk about heavy guys and the rate of the springs they use, which made me thinking about changing my reaar spring. I'm about 240lbs and on my 2004 FE 550 is the default 71-90/260 spring. If i look at the owners manual, there is an other option for a stiffer 81-99/260...

Stripping this 4681 rear shock, and the 22mm piston rod nut is proving very difficult to remove. There is no damage to the shaft threads. On top of the nut either side of the rod close to the threads is a small indent, it also looks like its had green loctite on it. So my question, is it safe...

Hi, After reading through the site on occasion and been thoroughly entertained I have just joined. Ive read somewhere on here, but cant find it again. I think it was nzberg that there are 5mm schrader valve bodies to convert the resovoir fill valve. Can anyone point me to where i can get...

Hello, I have recently joined the Husaberg family wth a 2006 fe450. I have been trying to dial in my rear shock. It has a WP spring that I assume from markings is rated for up to a 250 lb rider. I turned the adjusment nut down to were I can see about 4mm of thread showing on the bottom...

anyone ever measured this gap when the bike is in full compression between the shock resevior and the chain? people talk of concerns over the chain hitting it? regards Taffy

I need to borrow a Husa rear shock to measure so I may manufacture a F-Bushing for the Husa big bikes. I live in Nor-Cal by Stockton. Can anyone help. Rob [email protected]

some time ago 2005fc550 was able to give us the shim stack and internal specs on the last of the MX machines. is it possible to get the latest specs (we can) of an FE? it's just that i am slowly getting sorted and it's my desire to upgrade an old shock i have to the best spec i can...

I'm considering getting an FS650 and then convert it for offroad use (as there are more used FS than FE available). As far as I have understood the shock length is 21mm shorter on the FS, does anyone know how this is done and how it can be modified so that it gets the same as the FE? As for the...

Hi - can anyone tell me what the standard shock spring rate was for the 2001 FE 400 E ? Cheers.

Is this adjustment only velocity sensitive? Is it functional everywhere in the stroke or just during the final travel? Is there a limit to it's adjustment, i.e. stops moving at 4 turns out?

please let me know what the stock setting for the shock on my 02 fe650e are. it has the high speed circuit. thanks tuts

Has anyone ever made use of a KTM rear shock on their Husaberg before? I was thinking of trying to fit one from a 450 / 525 (along with the KTM forks) onto my FS650 to make it enduro. I'm betting the forks are fine with the WP48's, not sure about the shock though since the reservoir is...

Needs some advice here guys. I have taken possession of my '06 FE550 ( weapon ! ) & doing the regular checks when you get a new bike. I have found that the part # on the rear spring is 92/250 which only references to the harder spring for a FS model ? I have measured the shock & it matches...
