Please help and point me in the right direction. My 450 sounds noisy especially on the left side of the engine. The noise sounds kinda like a bearing noise (what I can remember from two stroke bikes with bearing problems) Where do I start looking? Clutch, valves, timing chain, .... or the...

Hi folks, I've got a 2008 FE550 that is running well but could be better. I had quite a loud top end rattle so I checked cam chain tensioner, it has about half way left to go. I checked and adjusted valve clearances to 1/6th turn. The intakes were perfect but the exhausts were way loose, I...

I want to gauge if there is any interest in organizing a group buy fron Kibble White oversize custom valves. I'd take 5 sets for myself that I wouldn't be willing to sell later on. These are really premium quality valves. Reply here with how many sets you'd be willing to order. Not shure of the...

I'm having one piece steel valves made in both 37mm and 35mm sizes. they are both around 0.75mm longer than the OEM parts so that the DVSKs can be fitted as near to the perfect 36mm length as possible. the backs are being machined with the same flow design as the racing valves and with...

A few weeks ago I dropped my 570 in three feet of water and pulled dirty water into the intake and engine. After the bike was submerged, the engine immediately died, and was not turned over at any point until the engine was partially disassembled. Upon draining the oil it was very milky, so I...

racking up mileage rapidly on the new FE570. searching the forums, it looks like the later models are fairly bulletproof (after sorting out fuel pumps, filters etc) so interested to see what kind of work FE570 owners have had to do after clocking up a lot of mileage. VALVES: most riders seem to...

Hi guys, just doing my first valve check and ran into a possible issue... Basically, i couldn't get the feeler gauge under the pad? and valve, but i believe part of my problem was the feeler gauges i'm using are just to 'wide'. Looking @ the pic below, that feeler looks to be much more...
