Thanks for the help, and please excuse my frustrated post. Turns out theres a mini 15amp fuse tucked in behind the headlight which had blown! Took me three tries to actually find it.

Having a strange no start issue with my 2009 FSE450 Gasgas. Was running great, till I pulled the motor to clean the engine and frame and fix some rust on the frame. Did some welding on the frame, but I removed the ECU before starting. Put it all back together after some minor engine work,(new...

Need help guys. Just picked up a crashed 2010 EC450FSE. Minor damage is all fixed. Bike starts and runs great, but the electrical system is dead. Starter motor cranks fine, but I have no lights or horn. Looked for a fuse that may be blown, but can't find one anywhere. Thought it might be stator...

For Sale; 2002 FSE400 motor, CDI, and wiring harness. Has had head rebuilt last year, hardly ridden since. Frame continuously leaks oil from the welds, so I'm going to fit a wet sump motor. Motor has been fitted with a Keihin FCR39 carb. Comes with original throttle body, injector etc. Located...

Decided to sell my low km 2002 FSE400 engine. Head recently refurbished. Due to an ECU issue, I have fitted a Keihin FCR39 carby. Bike pulls lots harder with the carb than it did with the efi. Only selling as the frame leaks oil when hot, and have a chance to buy a wet sump motor to get around...

That looks the same as mine, though thats a chinese copy, not a genuine Keihin.

Thought I'd resurrect this thread with some info on fitting a Keihin FCR39 to my EC400. Bike has sat, and refused to start for nearly two years. I've had the head rebuilt, got spark and compression, and injector tested fine when connected to 12 volts. Bike just refused to start. A couple of...

A question for the 4 stroke brains trust. Would having the valve timing a tooth out on either the exhaust or more likely the intake cam, cause the engine to return a low compression test. Due to my manual being in Spanglish, the valve timing procedure is vague. I'm getting 65psi compression and...

I'm in the process of reassembling my top end. 2002 FSE400. I bought DRZ400 head and cylinder gaskets thinking they would be identical. Unfortunately, they are slightly different. Has anyone used the Suzuki gaskets on their GasGas, and gotten away with it?

Hi all, anybody know the compression test figures for the FSE400? Mine won't start and I'm suspecting low compression may be the problem.

Well. I got the idle sorted. Took the bike for a run in the forest, and after a little while, the engine started to knock suddenly! Trailered it home, and started pulling bits off. Finally took the head off and found this. A frigging steel spring washer got into the combustion chamber, and...

Hi all, new Gasgas owner, picked up a 2002 FSE400, with supposedly 50 miles on the clock, yesterday. After a close look at the bike, I don't think the mileage is correct, but is sure hasn't done much work. Bike starts fairly easily, considering the small battery, but the idle is way too high...

Hi guys, I'm looking at becoming a Gas Gas owner, and can't decide between two FSE 450s for sale near me. A 2003 model in immaculate condition with just 2900 kms or a 2006 model, a bit rougher condition with 6500 kms. I'm leaning toward the 03 model, but I'm wondering what are the differences...
