Husqvarna TE 450 - Recent Questions, Troubleshooting & Support

Try contacting Husqvarna or its distributor to inquire.

I don't believe so. You'll need to order a shim kit and use a feeler guage. I had an SMR510. Once I determined the clearance needed I would select the proper shim and use a little grease on the feeler guage to slide it in under the rocker arm.

charge up or replace battery ! test pump on battery and see if pumps into bowl !

check the coil and wires !

As I know all the motorcycles has the vin number on the front side, on the frame tube where the entire fork is inserted.

Hi. Can you please advise where the serial number and VIN number are on the TC450 (2004) model thanks Darryl

If done correctly and head was in good condition then great advantage simply everything inside will be newer Valves , cams, seats stem seals etc but there know way to confirm all this without taking off again so downside is he could tell you anything !!! www.motoxpartsonline.com

verify spark - fuel - air

the starter drive teeth should not spin freely as you tested it. In other words the gear has sheared off the drive assembly.Replace the starter and checked the wiring with a volt meter before removing. The starter is most likely shorted out draining the battery as it sits unused since the battery cable is connected directly to it from the starter.

Backfiring when you let off the gas indicates a lean condition. You probably need to remove and clean your carb, particularly the pilot jet.

There may have been some confusion with the dealers advice.
Brake fluid is used in the hydraulic clutch master , its called fluid cause its not a oil , and has a high boiling point
Fork oil is for forks.it is a hydraulic oil, but an oil.
Engine oil is for engines that the clutch also runs in.

You have air in your brake system

you shouldnt need to heat the hub.

You will need a steel drift or punch smaller than the axle.
put it nearly through to the bearing on the other side and hit it at right angles to the bearing, this should move the inner spacer sideways and expose an edge of the bearing to drive it out.

What is year and model? Has the battery been checked for proper ampere and voltage output? Do the lights come on or other accessories? Kick starting I'm assuming is difficult to say the least. What year and model, and any other info about the bike would help.

No, best way to lower your bike is to send the forks and shock to a reputable suspension shop and ask them to install spacers inside the forks and shock which will reduce the length without changing the damping. This modification is easily reversable if you decide to put the bike back to full height.

Try Enduro Engineering or Factory Connection or .... there are many others out there.
