| What's your question? |
WHEN I STARTED MY BIKE IT STARTED SMOKING FLAMED UP WHEAR THE REGULATER STATOR PLUG IN AT , WHEAR SHOULD I START , STATOR OR VOLTAGE REGULATOR? OR ALL OF THE CHARGING SYSTEM ?

- a safe bet that the stator is toast...do a diode check on the regulator as it may or may not be damaged... By: bikernerd99 on: 8-6-2009
- when you let the smoke out your fucked. You can start with regulator but I would damn sure fully check out the system By: MarkGoff on: 8-7-2009
- Pull the stator plug out of the front of the case. Make sure that the plug is making good connections then put your meter on ohms and check from one of the pins on the engine side of the plug to a good ground. Should be no continuity on either pin to ground. Check pin to pin and you can get a reading of .2 to .4 ohms. Disconnect the meter. Start the motor with the regulator still unplugged. Set the meter to AC volts...read across the stator pins (BE CAREFUL, the motor will be moving around/vibrating a bit...don't short anything!!)...you should read between 19 to 26 volts AC per 1000 rpm of motor speed. Note the readings then TURN OFF THE MOTOR.
If you have continuity from pin to ground your stator is grounded and needs to be replaced. If you have no reading (infinity) when checking across the pins, the stator is open and needs replacing. If your AC voltage output is lower than spec'd, there is a partial short in the winding(s) and again, the stator will need replacing. Now, turn your meter back DC volts and check the voltage regulator side of the plug from pin to ground. These pins to ground should be very low voltage if any at all. If you get battery voltage at either pin, replace the voltage regulator. By: 47Knuckle-Dragger on: 8-7-2009
- DAM MY LUCK HAVE TO REPLACE MY HOLE DAM CHARGEING SYSTEM, WHEN THE STATOR SHORTED OUT IT FRIED THE REGULATOR TOO By: JRC on: 8-7-2009
