spring

Hello everyone, I thought I would share a video my friend made of us on our annual trip down to Utah/Moab. It was a "wash" we had never explored before, so we are riding a bit cautious at first. You never know whats around the next corner in these washes. Im on my berg, and my friend is on a...

Is it possible to change the fork springs on the new CC WP forks without having a special vacuum setup and special tools. If it is possible does anyone have a step by step process for doing so? Sorry if I've duplicated a any previous post. Thx!!!

Anyone got a link to a chart with ktm / husaberg spring rates etc. found one the other day but didn't book mark it and do you think i can find it again? just ordered a new spring. wanted the PDS10, already running a PDS8 shop sends me the wrong spring. Sales said no you've got the right one...

Just replaced my 04 FE 550 with an 09 FE570 and as I'm 97 KGs was going to replace the springs. My question is should I go straight rate or do the progressive springs work better in these bikes for trail riding, single track, rocky terrain. I am not the fastest guy or the slowest. Thanks for the...

I weigh 98kg with all my riding gear on, and ride predominately rutted single track. At 16 hrs on the bike, today I checked static and rider sag: Static Sag was exactly per manual at 35mm. This is spot on. Rider Sag is 116mm (11mm over 105mm recommended ) standing up and 128mm sitting down...

Hi Guys, Had my bike for a while now and figure it's time to spend some dollars on some correctly sorted suspension. On a good day I might make the grade as an 'average Joe' but I certainly ain't no pro. I'm 6'4" and probably 115-120kg fully loaded and ride all sorts of conditions. I've done as...

Just throwing it out there- i'm in the middle of riding the US to S America on an 09 570. keeping my options open, but it may be up for grabs in Peru, Bolivia, Arg, or Chile. US titled. details: -2.15 liter total oil capacity through frame rail oil coolers -rear cush hub and 2.5" rim -properly...

Hi, does any know if this kit is good, seems like a bargain for the price (2230 SEK aprox £195), valves and dual springs. do i need to do anything with it to make it fit my 450 2008 partnr: 00060000030 /Martin

Hi all, New here. from Israel, Telaviv area.. :o , with new berg fe390, gr8 bike but the rear spring for my weight 95 kg is poor... the rebound is like trampolina... what is the right spring rate for 92-95 kg with no equipment. any recommendation for the rear and front rate? I sow the...

Looking through the owners manual for the 2010 Husabergs, it says that a 7.6 rate spring should work for those up to 200 pounds or so. I go 230 with no gear. So, on my 2010 FX 450, following that logic, I install a 8.0, set the static at 35mm, and proceed to check the race sag. 125mm 8O...

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...

What are the stock spring rates for a 2010 FE570, US model? thanks HusaRod

When 1st trying to diagnose this I had posted in FUEL Postby DAY51 » June 13th, 2010, 6:52 pm Thanks for taking me in the right direction birdwoodburg. Just opened the valve covers to find a broken left outer exhaust spring. Can the spring be replaced by putting the cylinder under air...

I'm trying to dial in my spring rates for my '09 FE570. I'm 195lbs with all my gear. With a progressive PDS6 (7.1-9.0kg/mm) I get 145mm race sag. And that is with 10mm of preload on the shock. I'm afraid all that preload will take away from the suppleness of the suspension, the local well known...

Hello, I would like to make duel valve spring my FE600 2000'.How to modify the cylinder head? where can I order the duel springs? Thanks Thomas

I have purchased some race tech fork springs for my 450 fe 2008 and note that they are longer than the wp springs. They are longer by the preload spacers and more. Have installed and seems ok, but was wondering why wp has preload spacers as standard. That is has wp impoved over stock wp? Any...

Hello All, I have had my kickstand off my bike for quite some time, i recently put it back on and cannot find the spring parts. Does anybody have the dimensions of both the spring and the extension part so i can go hunt around at the local salvage yard to find something that fits. OR does...

Finaly decided to have another go at the old girl (2005 fs 650 e)puled the valve covers off intake side ok then the exhaust first one ok Hmmm other one feels loose. Bugger should be tight this one has 3-4mm play in it think its broken. Not very happy seems the motor has done 8 hours and about...

Just did a valve clearance and service and thought i would check the magnitic drain plug . It has what looks like parts of a tiny oils seal spring on it looks all most like the one from behind the weep hole bearing any idea's. This might be a clue or not the bike oil level was seemed to be...

G'day faithful Husa' lovers. I have another mare in the stable. '05 FS650e - 13000kms. This is 'not long after delivery' banta! Other than everything else I'm dialing in engine wise, I want to sort my suspension. I do love these bikes because they are racers at heart. As with...
