    Loud ticking noise fe390

    2011 FE390. Took the bike for a short ride today, about 30 miles on forestry roads. Nothing taxing on the bike. When I left the house it sounded a bit louder than normal and seemed to get worse throughout the ride. At first I thought it was just excessive extra noise from whatever the air filter...

    Noisy FE650, Tell me it's typical

    So I've got an 2006 FE650E. It's been pretty nosey since I got it last fall. Has 200hrs on the clock. I know they're a noisy motor, but this is a bit noisier than my RFS KTM. I just installed Taffy's Dual Valve Spring Kit, along with a new cam chain and tensioner. Figured that would have...

    Slight ticking in a 400fE engine...is it the cam chain?

    Hello guys, I am a n00b to Huza's so dont really know what to expect from them in terms of sounds they make. My bike is a 2003 400FE that starts on the button or with one kick so I reckon that everything in the combustion part is good. My worry is that when the bike is idling, there is a...
