  1. Bill; there are many post about this issue and the crappy stator yamaha puts in this great bike.. True, the stock stator puts out 30amp at crusing rpm, and there is a stator you can install that claims to put out 55 apms at about 2000 rpm.. I've run into this last year when I killed a battery...this is what happened to me Passing lamps pull about 10ams, my Motolamps pull 8amps..that just left 12 amps for the carb heaters and everything else (oh ya, it was cold enough for the carb heaters).. I installed the new stator in the bike... IMHO what a PIA.... but at this point,,,, I have had no problems with the charging system.... If I continue not having charging issues then all the work I did to the bike over the winter will be all worth it........
  2. I rode the Beartooth last year, WOW what a ride
