I am a new member though I have read the posts for quite some time. Like many other Venture riders I found out too late that the generator (stator) power out put on the '99 on Royal Star Venture is sadly lacking at only 406 watts. I ride a '05 Through research I came across Electrex World in the UK who manufacture generators. I know from reading the treads that someone had gone to Electrosport in the USA about a larger stator with out any luck. That post seems to have disappeared. Electrex World in the UK is the manufacturer and lists a generator G108 that fits the "Royalstar 1300, VMAX850, VMAX1200, XVZ1200, XVZ1300" as listed on their site I had thought it would fit and work on the RSV with a 30% increase in power alas it does not, I thought it was worth opening up the crankcase cover and have a look to see. As this is a major shortcoming of the Venture the following is a copy of an email I received today from Electrex World that may be of interest to the members on this forum. Hello David Sorry about the problem that you have encountered, there does indeed appear to be more than one size of generator. Of course, if you return the unit, we will refund you in full. If you are interested, we can make a prototype unit higher power than the original, but you would need to send your original stator as a pattern.

The other option I mentioned to Peter is I would check with an owners group to see if there was anyone who did have one available and wanted to move forward on this. So here is the post
