    2003 fe501 cylinder head repair/replacement questions

    Hello Husaberg community! My name is Tristan and I am from Washington State, USA. I have a 2003 FE501 that I bought a little over a year ago with ~50 hours on the clock. I put about 10 hours on the bike and it ran decently, but while jetting/tuning the carb I was doing repeated WOT runs and she...

    Valve seal without pulling the head?

    Any of you had any luck replacing valve seals without pulling the head to compress the spring? Needing to do them on both our bikes. Mine (the wife) 09 Fe450, & his 16 Fe501s (husky). Basically looking to see if anyone has had success with the "on bike" spring compressors. If so, which 1's.

    Air cut valve

    I am trying to understand how this valve works on the FCR MX 41 of my husaberg 650. I have noticed that a spring presses the pin diaphragm which in turn opens a bypass which adds air into the pilot circuit, making it lean. A duct carries the vacuum signal on the diaphragm which overcomes the...

    Cheers guys! I have been getting requests on CNC machined valve covers for the Husaberg models 2001-2008. Now I have designed covers with an o-ring seal, which will eliminate the need of a gasket. These billet covers are also tougher and will not bend as the OEM´s do. A set will cost 75€. If...

    FE 570 Cam Wear thoughts

    Edit: Got my answer from Taffmeister re: the cam wear. But I'll leave all this up just in case. He stated it's fine to use. After some disassembling I discovered I had a broken intake valve (right if sitting on bike) and a beat up shim laying in the head. But no other damage so far including...
