I sent a stator to Custom Rewind and had them upgrade the windings as well as put a Yamaha connector on the output leads. Got it back and installed it in a buddy's 98 with about 20k miles on it. We previously installed an R1 R/R but this was on our list to complete. Even with the R1 R/R, his volts never rose above 13.6v. It appears we completed the upgrade in time..... Custom Rewind continues to do excellent work, 14.4v at idle.
