There was a time when we all used to run them on the outside…

Big difference, one took out a Redbull rider, the other was Monster.

3/24/2026 1:50pm Could be, I haven’t seen your type before. Folan made designs and parts with and for Husaberg for many years. The only two piece clutchcover I’ve seen is this, and it is Italian although not Vertemati.

3/7/2026 7:10am No, they all got steel clutchbasket. You could just measure the stroke down the sparkplughole, if it’s 585 the bore can then just be calculated.

Got the bike all back together from it being torn apart from shipping . Going collect parts for it then tear it down and restore it once I find everything which I know will take long time

It’s not Chase or Jorge it’s 100% on the upper management of that team. For years they thought that they were smarter than everyone else and won some championships on an older proven model, they have brought that same mentality to the new chassis and they have yet to figure it out…this is no different that what happened to Yam with Keith McCarty when the technology passed them by they were left clueless on motor development and set up…all you have to do is listen to the interviews that Lewis did recently and realize that they are complete corporate mouthpieces...

3/1/2026 1:42pm No worries 👍🏻 The crosstube on the swing is original. Maybe you can measure the stroke from the sparkplug hole? Then the bore could be calculated. 585 is only 10cc less than stock 600, so it must be a different bore/stroke configuration for it to be any reason. By the drainplug at the side of your right enginecase you have...

3/1/2026 12:28am Nice 👍🏻 Off course you should listen to a factory mechanic over me, no problem, enjoy the bike. I would be very interested in knowing the bore/stroke of the 580 or 585 as your cylinder says. I have never seen one. Please let me know if you open the motor. 530 (pre 93 501 crankshaft with milled down 600 cylinder)...

2/28/2026 2:04pm I’m not here to talk down your bike. I just wanted you to know. Glenn wrenched for Smets 1997-99, those years the bike had the motor with oilpump. Yours is 1996 or older, and without oilpump. Different motor. The pictures you are putting up is the 1997 bike. The two piece special clutchcover is very cool, but I think you’ll...

2/6/2026 12:35pm Hi If someone sold you this as a ex Smets factory bike I’m sorry to say I think you have been scammed. I can’t see one single factory part from the 1995 bike on it. Let alone any factory part from any other year. The clutchcover could perhaps be from the Vertemati years, but in that case doesn’t fit the...
