    Parts I need

    Rocket replied to Monty's topic in Watering Hole

    Partshark is listing it for $15.47, so probably about $20 - $25 at a local dealer, for the complete cable assy.

    You even got the fastest of the family, one with the 1200 CC motor AKA Mk1 Yup, he is off to a good start......... :rotf:

    I just use PJ1 Cable Lube, available at Cdn Tire, every winter on the cables, locks & ignition switch.

    His oil leak on the 91 came back:bang head:. He had also threatened, sending the scoot up to me, to fix it...........

    So I did both stators at the same time. 1 bike behind the other, on Grandpagak's trailer. Guess we didn't do too bad time wise that day, considering the stators & gaskets arrived that morning, gasket removal time needed & the BBQ lunch interuption. Both bikes were running, before the show & supper.

    Yah, you need to start now on those fork seals, so they will be done by winter 2012........ Otherwise they will be the same, as the 2008 & 2009 PIP. Probably not much oil left in them (if any), to drain out........

    We were Quoted $650 for each new Yammi stator (2 were required), while in Cody for the roundup. I wasn't able to get any re-wound stators from Buckeye, so I suggested a "Mikes Motorsport Electrics" stator ($133) & was able to get them over nighted in. I did not use the Electrosport stator, as I have read about the short, lifespan on some of these units. Most of us had travelled a distance to get to Cody & I didn't want to risk a faulty stator after changing it during the rally.

    All the same for 1st gen + '85 - 2003 Vmax........

    Lets put it this way, with his standards..... It dosen't matter if she has a better beard than him or anything else, just as long as she doesn't walk on 4 legs......... :rotf:

    Another way to check the stator is to "back probe" the stator output connector, with the engine running & the multimeter set to alternating current. Do three complete rounds of testing, moving your base probe (lets say the black one) over to the next connector, after getting readings from your red one on the other 2 connectors. All readings should be about the same, if 1 is much lower, part of the stator is probably shot. But check cleaniness of the stator output connectors to the rectifier / regulator, as these have been known to corrode, causing resistance & melting plastic of the connector housing & wire insulation.

    The bike is a 1990 & not a 2nd gen. Our new member, just happened to post this thread, in the wrong forum.

    Stock wiring will handle it, but make sure the connectors are clean. Maybe transplant the cruise switch back to your previously installed right side switch assy & put that back in. As it looks like, all the contacts in the current one, needs to be cleaned.

    Sounds like it would have been one of the shift dowel pins inside of the clutch housing, if it was a 1st gen. But it's 2nd gen, with an updated part in that area, so it should not of dropped the pin for 2nd gear, if the entire part loosened off ( due to center retention screw), it may possibly cause the shift errors. I think that should be the first area to look, before tearing into it too deeply.

    I finally got around to ordering some.....

    Rocket replied to Scooter's topic in Watering Hole

    Rooms have already started to be booked for Nelson B.C. next year, as a few were booked before departure this year. This location was already chosen for a second run, as there are many great roads & not enough time to do them all.

    Depends on what she breaks....... Waiting word on the electrical saga, now playing.

    Check with StuD, he could let you know of a drop site, on the other side of the border, where you go pick it up from.

    Or cleaning up the clippings........ But then, there is soaking the insides, of a couple of helmets, while having dinner........ Sometimes he gets a wet head, as a result of his own actions & not someone elses...........

    Dennis Lirk has the same one for $215 http://www.denniskirk.com/jsp/product_catalog/Product.jsp?skuId=195298&store=Main&catId=&productId=p194765&leafCatId=&mmyId=11442 I have all EBC rotors on mine, only time one of them got noisy, is when i had a bunch of dust in there. Probably from the bike waiting for a new stator to arrive & the wind blowing grit around here (bike is parked outside).
