Make sure you get the charging system checked before buying a Stator 7 Flywheel.... The Rec are very prone to fizzling out and are a damn bit cheaper/easier to replace.
depending on what route you want to take,i have a 2 stators (in the side case) that are fine,and also a reg/rectifier. they have come from my race bike,sonot done many miles in comparion to road bikes and still look in perfect nik. sold 1 to a member on here a few months back without any probs. 40 quid delivered,thats with the side case as theres no point me splitting it out,and you can just sell that on if you want.
this is his thread and sounds very similar to yours. http://1000rr.co.uk/general-1000rr-discussion/10751-6.htm
I might very well take you up on that Scooby, I need to try to get the upgraded flywheel too, so give me a few days and I'll get back to you if that's okay? Putting a good stator back into the original flywheel is a bit of a waste of time as it will only burn up again, I'm going to chat to Honda tomorrow about a possible discount on the items but I'm not holding out much hope.
Well I've heard from my mech and he says he's removed the stator and it's as black as coal all the way around apart from three coils, so looks like it's confirmed that it has failed again. I've just ordered a new flywheel and stator from Honda at £347.00 including VAT, they seem to think that I will get the uprated flywheel and stator for that price but I still think that just the stator is going to turn up and I'm going to need to cough up another £347.00 for the flywheel too. They are listing the parts seperately but then there's another part number that says 'complete' for the same price as each Hmmm. Anyhow it should be here within a week so let's hope it's all good.
WOW,your willing to part with that much money and still not know what oyur getting?? think i'd have taken a punt at 40 quid myself..... hope it sorts it out though
I know what you mean scooby and your offer of a stator for £40.00 is very kind however if i put a good stator back into my bike it will simply burn up again in another few thousand miles and leave me stranded somewhere as this is the third time it's happened now. If the new part/parts turn up and is just the stator I will be onto the Honda dealer for the flywheel too gratis as they've taken my money informing me that I'll get both components.
Just to bump this thread and hopefully this will help someone in the future if they have a similar problem. The stator and flywheel combo have arrived and the price was £347.00 for both and the Honda part number is 06311MEL305. They're priced separately and as a package for the same price £280.01+vat. They're being fitted tomorrow so hopefully that'll be the issue sorted and I can go for a ride!
You've got to laugh! Just went to pick the bike up and started it up, left it idling for ten minutes or so and the dash went blank and it died! Looks like the stator flywheel issue has somehow knackered the battery too unless its a strange coincidence. Mech tested the voltage at the battery with the bike running with new stator/flywheel and it was putting a decent charge into it but it looks like the battery cells have shot themselves and its not holding a charge. He's getting me a new battery tomorrow so hopefully that'll be the end of it. What's the odds on the reg/rec being knackered too lol
Check the fuse/relay that sits behind the battery, this is what caused my dash to go. Also clean up the big plug in the back of dash and the big multi conector plug that sits down in the right hand side fairing/nose
It's at the shop now so can't do anything tonight, the battery had died within ten minutes of it idling and the bike wouldn't re-start. Hopefully the cells have had it and it'll be a simple replacement(famous last words!) The stator was black as coal though so that was definitely shot.
batteries do stop working,but once your bikes running,even on tick over,it shouldn't make any difference if the battery is dead or not,so does more point to the reg/rec.cheap fix that one though
Last week when the issue developed I tested the voltage at the battery(after charging it up from the mains) with the bike running and was getting 12v and nothing more when revved. I rode the bike to his workshop 10 days ago, about 4 miles away and it's been sat there all week, obviously the battery didn't get any charge when I rode it to his place and the only time it was started up was when he'd fitted the stator/flywheel. He tested the voltage at the battery today with the new stator/flywheel and it was around 13v at idle and around 14.2v over 5000rpm. Fired up when I arrived and it idled for about 10 mins the dash disappeared and the engine died. Does this sound like a duff battery or reg/rec? Battery is about 18 months old.
well if your getting 14+v then it shouildn't be the reg/rec,sounds more like a dodgey connection to me tbh,if your batteries goosed it wouldn't of held charge for that long,and definatley wouldn't have started,plus once the bikes running,the stator,even on tickover should give enough juice to run the bike,not charge the battery as such but run the bike oik.
