Hey guys have not been on the form for awhile Still riding my 2010 FE 570 48,000 miles, one total rebuild spending winters at Lake Havasu, AZ Riding is still great but you need to be about twenty miles out before the dam RZR bumps are gone( and I have one of those things, Turbo no less, sand...

Hi Looks like I have a leak from the crankcase on my 650 and might have to split the cases. As I only need to pull the cases apart and re seal the joint hopefully can I just strip the right side take the head off and then pull the cases apart. It looks like all the shafts etc stay in the left...

2007 fe550e piston inspection - tools needed I'm about to check the piston in my 2007 fe550e that has not been worked on since new. I want to get all the tools and parts before starting work. 1. Looking through the workshop manual one thing I am unsure of is whether I need to buy a new...

Yes, I likely already know the answer to this. However, this forum is filled with folks much more knowledgeable than I and I am soliciting your input. The condensed version: Water pump seal issue led to discovery of grooved balancer shaft. I have a spare balancer shaft and bearing, but I...

The TUBLISS system did its job Running 50/60 mph in a sand wash went through a rock field and hit a rock hard! The Dunlop MX31 split open in the knob area losing the 18psi of air I was running The TUBLISS setup kept the blown out front tire on the bent rim for over twenty miles making it to...

I'm slowly getting to know the new to me 2008 FE 450 and in general I am happy with it. It is the first Berg that I have had and the first euro dirt bike so there is a lot to pick up and I have been trawling through the Doc which is huge compared to what it looks like at first glance. One of...

Is the rubber in the chain guide supposed to split so you can install it without splitting the chain? The old one that I recently wrecked when my crank split seemed to open at the top but the new one I bought (OEM for a 2003 FE) does not seem to open up? Do you have to split the chain to...

I was doing come trail riding yesterday amy rear sprocket split in half taking a chunk of the hub with it. Everything was tight, the aluminum sprocket just failed under the load. I think I'll go steel on my next sprocket. saving a little weight just cost me $500!

i kid you not, i have an engine here with two needle clips holding the sideplate on a camchain. they don't protrude, they don't rub: so they can't go wrong! right? i checked them out and they are the dark 'C' clips you see holding keihin needles up! old hat to anyone? regards Taffy

I have an 06 450 in SM trim. Yesterday I noticed a strong smell of petrol after filling up when I stoped at the first set of lights. Ignored it to the second set when I noticed it was literaly chucking fuel down the street. Pulled over closed the tank on both side and that cured the problem...

I'm investigating the source of the oil smoke that my bike was putting out. I was hoping that it woud be something simple like the valve stem seals or the piston rings. Looks like I'm going to have to replace the big and little end bearings too, as they've both got quite a bit of play. Gotta...

Have purchased a new 06 450e. 10 months old 50 hrs on it and replaced intake boot twice. Only problem so far. :D But it seem's to split in the same place every time, right next to the clamp. So with the second one i replaced i made sure the clamp wasn't too tight. SPLIT again. Is it a problem...

ok i have just seen this at ktmtalk.com. i have no idea where it came from or if it is for real, but i am sure it could result in some MAJOR changes to the bikes and distributing, spare parts availability etc etc. http://216.165.194.66/ktmtalk/photogall ... 070905.jpg Jeff

8O First of all 'Happy New Year' to all 8O I rode yesterday with no problems, cleaned her today then started her up to warm, then drop the oil... As you do. Took the magnetic filings catch plug out to find loads of big bits of metal on her. About 4 large pieces, biggest about 6mm long. Plus...

First, I'm a new Husaberg-driver!! I'm from Germany so, excuse my bad english! Maybe there is anybody here who can speak german, and can help me!! My clutch on my Husaberg FE 501 (model2000) doesn't part right! In the first gear the bike allways wants to go on, even if I press the...
