    Wish I read this before I did mine, looks even faster and easier.

    When changing the Stator on the RSV, do you have to drain the oil or do you just loose a little when you pull the cover?

    It's actually not too bad but yes bags and trunk come off as well as the right side muffler and passenger foot rests. Even taking your time it shouldn't take more than an hour.

    Even though it's not the kind of riding I enjoy at least you're getting too.

    Have fun with family and friends but stay safe and avoid the roads if you can.

    Having a friend or family member pass is tough no matter what time of year it is, it always seems worse this time of year though. Please pass on my best wishes to his family, let them know he and they will be in my prayers.

    Thank you Flyinfool for the help, I'll contact skydoc for the parts I need

    Welcome to the forum, glad you got it figured out.

    I pulled the coolant tank and found this connector It goes down to the coils under the bike toward the rear and one of the coil wires was off which makes me wonder why it runs so smooth. Looking at the schematic that was posted it doesn't seem like that should effect the stator, someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I still can't find that damn connector I've been looking for. If it would keep it from charging I'll put everything needed to make it run back together and retest it.

    Also, anyone have any suggestions on a new stator? Is there an upgraded stator for these bikes like one with higher output I can look for. I prefer to support board members so if anyone on here sells them, let me know so I can buy one from you. For the guys that have changed them, other than a gasket and oil, is there anything else that I'll need when changing the stator?

    Is it toward the shock or fuel tank, in other words, would it be towards the front or rear of the battery box? I got irritated enough trying to find it this morning I stopped working on it and changed my clothes and wrote it off until tomorrow. I'll take a stab at it later today I'm sure, but I want some guidance before I go back out in my garage.

    Tested the stator at the R/R harness and resistance is good on all pins but when I started it I had correct idle voltage that dropped off as soon as the bike warmed up. As soon as the temperature started to come on the voltage even at ~4000 rpm would not get over 15 volts. If someone can help me locate the harness that's supposed to be behind the cover that would be awesome. I read an article about issues these supposedly have at the connection where they say you can eliminate the connector by just soldering the wires together but I can't even see where someone would have done that. I've even pulled the battery and tray and still don't see the connector that should be there. I followed the harness from the R/R up the frame until it goes under the tank, and then over the air box. I haven't pulled the coolant tank but I don't want to pull any more apart than necessary so I'm hoping someone can tell me for sure where they've seen it. I can always start following from the Stator when I take it apart, but I'd like to know where it is before I start so I can test and eliminate possible connection issues if there are any.

    2 wires in the first picture are the only 2 connectors behind the cover aside from the 4 wire connector at the relay. Where else would they be and can you test this circuit at the R/R? Also, why would I be getting continuity from those 2 wires coming out of the stator cover and that connector I showed pictured?
  14. Angelo
    One other question I have is, in the manual it says there is supposed to be a 2 pin connector near the 3 pin connector and the only one I see goes to the fuel pump. It's also black and all the pictures I can find are white.
  15. Angelo
    When I checked to see how many ohms the wires had (A-B and A-C) neither one would give me a reading, basically wide open. If I'm on the right harness it means I need a stator, unless I'm missing something so I'm once again asking if you guys have any suggestions on upgrades or where to look for one.

    ^^^^^^^Behind the left side cover ^^^^^^3 pin connector ^^^^^^Wires coming out of Stator cover
  17. Angelo
    I need to get pictures up to make sure I'm testing the right wire, I pulled the left side cover to check the stator and there is only one 3 pin connector there so I'm sure it's the right one. Also, I pulled the rubber cover off the bleeder at the rear of the stator cover and checked for continuity between the wires coming out from the cover and the connector and it's definitely there. The problem is, 2 of the 3 wires coming out of the cover (can't get to the 3rd one) have continuity on pin A and pins A and B both test to ground.

    Headed to church in a few, will say a prayer for him.

    Battery

    Angelo replied to Angelo's topic in Watering Hole

    Not my fault, those damn northerners keep praying for issues to keep us from riding when they can't and God keeps answering. I bought the battery that skydoc_17 sells and it came quick and ready to go. I know there are some a few dollars cheaper but I believe in supporting our board members first. Now I have to figure out what the cause of mine not charging is which is what probably killed mine in the first place.

    Will the bike start and run if the main fuse is blown?

    My wife is an agent with Liberty Mutual. If you are a married homeowner over 26 with a clean driving record they have probably the best rates out there. If you are not in that window of what they are looking for they are not competitive. If anyone wants a quote from them let me know and I'll send you my wife's contact info.

    And the hits just keep on coming. So the battery showed up today (thanks skydoc_17) and I put it in and she fired right up. Just as a double check since I was there I checked for charging voltage and I only had 12.30. I increased the idle and it only went up .2-.3 volts and the longer it ran the lower the voltage dropped. My background being with cars not motorcycles I'm asking here, where do you start with these? Is there fuses for the charging system on these or do I go straight to the regulator?

    Uh...........It's my name, kind of simple, just like me:p

    I'm going to beat puc to it

    Oh I'm definitely slow, the bike is my saving grace.
