test

I have a Husaberg fe650 motard which i bought in Germany with all the paperwork and took to the testing station here in the Netherlands to register. The tester failed the bike as the last three numbers of the "stamped" vin number did not line up perfectly so must have been tampered with, even...

Hey! Im building a sumo out of my 08 fe450 and will run it on the dyno at some point this year. but until then im interested to see what others have gotten out of their bikes! Are the stock claimed to be 47.86HP @6400rpm & 48Nm @6647rpm real numbers? Anyone actually tested stock? Btw ALL...

Hi folks :) Im looking to purchase a still in bike 06' FE650 engine & want to know the compression. The owner did it & got 60lbs & is thinking its due to the auto compression release. How can this be done so I can get a real reading ? Also if this is a tight engine does 2k US sound fair ? Is...

Does quite well Id say.

Hi all I've tried searching the forum for my answer without any luck, so I'll try a new post :) I'm having the fuel pump going bad and I have now ripped the complete fuel system out of the tank. I'm wondering is there is some way I could "bench-test" the regulator while I'm at it to see that...

So I had my mod 2 today. Had real issues hearing the examiner over the radio. I kept shaking my head and tapping the helmet when he spoke as it was all distorted. He asked me to pull over 3 times before I could make out what he was actually asking me. I could tell he was annoyed with me like...

I finally bought a leakdown tester and had to try it out. Had to pull the valve cover to get things lined up to lock it at TDC and make sure the ADC wasnt engaged. Bike has over 305 hours on it, all off road. I'm pleased with the results and see no reason it wont make 400 or 500 hours before it...

Hey Guys Seeing that it's winter here I thought it would be good time to look a my electronic speedo cable issue on my 2005 fs650e. my issue is that sometimes in the morning (cooler temps) my speedometer reads erraticly. going down the highway crusing at around 110km's it will bounce from...

My "new" FE390 passed the ultimate test; that is following a little kid around the forest at 15 - 20 km/h (my youngest on his 2000 KTM 50) without overheating or succumbing to fuel vapour lock. The pump has been upgraded, the bike has a fan and I am also running 'Engine Ice' as coolant which I...

Test rode an '05 Husaberg FE 550 this week. DAMN what a glorious machine. Low-hour bike, very clean specimen. And of course completely different from the Suzuki DR-Z400 I currently own. The word that best describes the 550's power is unreal. It's not brutal, angry or monstrous, it is absolute...

Have an 2010 fe 450 with 230 hours on it. Just had valves checked and were bang on and a leak down test with results of 19% and with this result I'm not sure if its time for a rebuild.. I've had 2 different opinions from mechanics and im left on the fence on what should be done. To rebuild or...

Hi Does any one have tryed the EVS RC-EVO neck brace ? [attachment=0:28d3fl8u]yvzais3mtk54bjwc.jpg[/attachment:28d3fl8u] It is cheaper then the others more used, I would like to know if anyone have experience with this one before spending the money. Thanks :cheers: ZAGA

Hey All Quick video from the last event. http://vimeo.com/28000746 Looki

I looked high and low but cannot find a test method and spec. I can assume it is a resistance test, but how many ohms under wet and dry condition? Mine tests out at ~825,000ohms, wet or dry, at connector and at the device itself, so I'm pretty sure it's a dead duck. FYI: The shrink-tubing on...

Hi all, First post, great site, heaps of great info, but I need some more if possible. I have a 1987-88 Swedish made Husky WR250. It has the SEM stator and coil the same as some of the Husaberg and KTM machines, History. Bike was going fine, parked up for a few months, got out to ride and...

This photo is absolutely incredible... it should be a poster for what not to do 8O . But can you tell what's wrong with it? Yep, guess you spotted it, too. Never, never try to Prop-Start an aircraft without chocking the wheels! I am sure that caught your eye right...

Hi there guys, I received a report from someone that they were unable to use the chatroom in Internet Explorer 8. Once they mentioned it, I found that I had the same problem in IE 8, but only in Vista and 7(not in XP). I was wondering if you guys could help me try to narrow down the...
