|Ihave a 97 501fe the kick start is broken ,,will a kickstart from a 97 400fe fit mine ?

Can anyone tell me if electric start can be fitted to a 1998 FC 600 ? I tore my left hamstring several years ago and have been unable to kick start bike since injury. Thanks for any info. Tony

I just picked up an 02 FC550 with kickstart only yesterday. It had been sitting sine July and would not start, so I drained the gas and put some fresh Premium gas in it. Tried again still nothing, so I pulled the carb off and took it apart and cleaned it out and cleaned the jets. I then put it...

Hello all !! My 2007 Fe 550 will not start its done 1600 miles and 72 hours, its got a good spark and fuel ok, checked and adjusted valves still no luck Please help me!!!

I've had my Fe570 over a year now and have been playing with things as and when I ride it. I've gone up to .46 springs on the front and 7.6 on the rear, although it's better i'm going to try a 8.0 rear spring soon as I feel it needs it. I did a race with a MX section and the bike bottomed out...

I am looking for some advice, or to pull some others possible experience, with a problem that has now left me pushing/dragging my bike out of the woods twice. I have a 2011 FE450 that has been having issues with what seems to be the starter solenoid, located under the seat (white 4 wire plug, 2...

Same old story came home washed the bike a week later tried to start as I do every week riding or not ,No go . FI lamp doesn't light up but engine cranks. I have read posts on electrical system and it seems the reg requires current from the generator to switch everything on ,something it seems...

Hey guys, I'll give you the quick and dirty. My 2005 FS650 was starting and running fine (kick or button) but one day I'm on the street when I hear and smell fuel leaking onto the engine case. The frame rail near the petcock on the left side must have gotten very hot and burned a small hole in...

Tried almost everything spent over $1100 at shop. upgraded battery, iridium plug, rewired due to corosion, new fuel, hard to start at all times tried many techniques but still have to tow bike to get going, backfires little when decellerating, goes good otherwise when you can get it going...

When I press the start button, all I get is a click sound (no fuel pump sound). I can push start the bike and it will run fine. I have put a new fully charged battery in and have checked all connections behind the light so far. So now I am looking for advice. Where should I look next?

2001 fe470 always have trouble starting. am giving up racing this thing now. kick start does not start the bike, it did last week but it was a pain, i'm often too tired to get to the sart line. electric starter spins then stops. sounds like a dead battery. battery is new and fully charged. if i...

Ok, I have another infuriating problem. Last week, I was riding and everything was just fine. At one point, after one of many restarts, the bike started but then coughed and died. After that, it cranked fine, but wouldn’t fire. My first thought was that the dreaded hot-start, fuel-pump...

I just purchased a 1996 400 with a 15/1 compression, I cannot get the bike to start with out having to pull it behind a car. Everything on the bike seems to be in great condition. Its my second bike I have owned and paid $500 for it. I guess the bike was raced in the china hat race a few years...

Hi, I'm new to the site. I've got a '92 model FC600 (since Christmas) and can't find a service manual anywhere. I need to check the timing and valves as the Hussy wont start. It stalled last time out while green laneing and would not start again. I've checked there's a spark, made sure the...
