Member Contributer roadrunner Posted June 20, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted June 20, 2015 I know there are already many electrical issue topics I have been looking through to see if any helps so if someone can point me in the right direction I would appreciate it. So last year I put a new mosfet regulator rectifier and stator on my bike. Original honda stator I got near 50k miles on it this one just took a crap with only 10k miles. The rr looks fine but stator is definetley fried. I have had the harness wiring recall done, blue harness ground, and main fuse wires replaced, so what am I missing. Why am I still having issues.. Is there any permanent solutions or do I just keep replacing these things? Did I just get a bad stator? Will honda fix any of this, obviously my 04 with 60k miles is well beyond warranty. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Switchblade Posted June 20, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted June 20, 2015 Did you do a add on or have any electrical problems in the 10,000 mile period. Battery fail or electrical add on fail. Anything that could have damaged the stator. Motor over heated? Roll On .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Cogswell Posted June 21, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted June 21, 2015 How does the 3 yellow wire connector to the R/R look? Stators are a consumable item, but 10k does seem a very short life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer roadrunner Posted June 21, 2015 Author Member Contributer Share Posted June 21, 2015 I actually went a size or two bigger on the wires between the stator and rr with direct connection because before I replaced them the last wires failed at the connection box. All looked well this time. The only accessory I have is cigarette lighter style power outlet I use for charging a phone and other small batteries like sena headset. Last time I did everything at once stator rr and battery. My next question is am good to just replace the stator? What brand do you recommend?

OEM only, need it to work the first time, and last the longest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer rhoderage Posted June 22, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted June 22, 2015 Just checking - you say the R/R "looks" fine, did you do the drill and confirm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once I put the new stator on I will know in short order if I need an new rr also. Thanks vfrd for the quick and helpful replies I will let you know how it goes in a few days.

Just make sure you check it right away just in case it is bad or another $200 stator could be fried. Roll On .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 I got a Rick's stator from Bike Bandit and soldered the connections. My little volt meter says everything's OK so far :smile2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
