Hi, wondered if anyone could help, I have an '08 FE550 and it died at my last enduro 10 minutes in and wouldn't restart. (Ran totally fine before.) At first I thought it was just a fuel blockage from dodgy petrol as I found white deposits in the carb from brand new fuel I'd put in. I cleaned...

I finally stepped up and picked up a '10 570 from Mark at SOS. When I picked it up, we went to fire it up and load it into the truck and it took quite a bit of spinning to get it started, but I thought well it's new and probably has old gas in it. First thing I did when I got home was removed...

I put on a new brand new tank (08 model, came with petcocks and cap). Started off to work and about 8 miles out as I came to a light it died. I noticed the lever petcock was closed but screw out petcock was open (these were on opposite sides of the tank that came off, an 06 tank). The only...

I finally stepped up and bought a brand new leftover 09 FE 570. It arrived in the crate a few days ago. I just got it assembled and attempted to start it. It cranks over but won't light off. The fuel pump cycles, I pulled the plug and it has spark. Is there something I'm missing? I sure would...

Was draining rad coolant to change it today and at first thought this bolt/plug by kick start lever (see pic) was the air bleed screw...nope...screwed it back in but not sure how far. Found proper bleed screw on R side below the decomp cable and finished up. Any ideas? I went through the fiche...

Just went to a dealer,to get map reflashed ,which is now done, reason for flash,he claimed the standard maps have been modified to resolve the Hot-start problem or should i say the hot-start,not-start-problem. ] With my bike when hot, it was definately on the button once,for 0.5 sec, to get a...

I have aquired a very cheap 2003 fE 400 with a dellorto carby. Apparently the bike has been to the doctor for over a year with the previous owners intention to fit a beefy electric leg - never happend. When it came back it would not start at all. I'm not a mechanic's armpit, but I have tried...

So, I have this starting issue. At first I thought it was a faulty stator, bought a used one, checked the resistance and it was spot on. Installed it....nothing. Started looking around and the ignition keyswitch had connectors corroded off. After much trying to go the cheap route I gave up...

After driving to Washington to enter a 100 mile desert race my bike got scared and decided not to start. They had a poker run on Saturday that I went on. Half way thru I stopped to check a downed rider. After that she wouldn't start and killed the battery. I just installed an 8 cell lithium...

Hi, Got my FE 650 03 mod out for the spring and are trying to start it up, but it wont... It was a little hard started last year aswell, but it would start.. The situation is: I have a spark on the plug, fresh fuel and a new battery. What bugs me is that the compression is harder than I...

I have a 2001 FC550 and just recently it won't start with the choke on. I have to turn the choke on kick it over a few times and then turn the choke off and then kick the bike over. After doing this routine a few times the bike will start with the choke off. Any ideas on why this might be...

Hi All, i'm new to bergs and i need some help with my 05 FE650. On the weekend i rode a lot of tight track stuff and the bike overheated and cut out a few times and became harder and harder to start. It eventually wouldn't start so we let it cool down for 15-20mins, it finally started and i...
