g'day fellas, i own a 290 '09 cab replica and have recently had trouble with the fan staying on permanently even when starting it up cold in the mornins!there appears to be nothing wrong with the connections and just wondering if it could be thermo switch. Bit of help would be appreciated, thanks...
just remove muffler and the master cylinder is easy to access...then bleed them the ordinary way, aslong as the isn't a heap of air in there and you're using the correct type of fluid there should be no problems with bleeding them...
Hey guys, I own a '09 cabestany replica 290 and have recently sprung a leak in the left fork leg...Someone told me that it holds 330ml but someone else told me to fully compress the leg and top it up 120mm from the top? Any ideas on what method to use would be appreciated! thanks
ive got an 09 cabestany replica and had the same problem.new seals,fork tube in good nick and sprung a leak in the same fork whilst tied down on the ute...
yeah had the same problem when i first changed the oil in my cabestany replica.obviously sherco just want you to hope for the best!bit stupid really, only manufacurer i know that does this...
hmmm i will look into that gasser disc!i can assure you that the water trick does not work in this case will try that silicone based stuff that goes between the rear of the pad and piston...will keep you posted on the results. i am yet to try some of that 'stop squeak' in a can rubbish but very much doubt that it will work in any way,shape or form!!!
um have tried bedding the brakes in this way also, but with no success. I know what you mean but!thats how i feel, it is annoying to ride due to the terrible noise it makes!Maybe I should try it again but while holding brakes on for longer and getting more heat into them...
oh yeah thanks...mine kind of clicks but when the brakes are applied it always makes a loud squeak/screech! I haven't heard the fender slap noise though?
hi guys, I own a 2009 model Cabesany replica sherco 290. It has a floating front disc works quite well but is noisy as hell!!!I have put new pads in, deglazed old pads and nothing has worked. the disc has a large amount of freeplay and I'm wondering if new bushes to reduce freeplay would help,what are your ideas???
yeah mate they look pretty cool.i own a 2009 cabestany replica that has competed in the trials des nations and has been modified by Ponz team (my first bike)...having no trouble with it so far, they are fantastic bikes and look trick!!!
g'day mate.just bought a new sherco 290.it is either a '09' or a '10' R version from europe.i have/had the exact same issue with that distinct nasty noise but fan still functioning normally.just took the seat and tank off and the fan is easy to access.from there u should be able to see a rubber boot on the back of the electric motor.remove the boot and spray crc into it.there must be crap on the brushes within the motor or somethin as mine is fine now and have had no trouble yet...any questions just email me mototrials101@hotmail.com good luck!!!
