The stock 08 stator outputs 4xx watts, the 09 is in the 500's. The 09's are frying voltage regulators, and you think it would be safe to take the stator up to 850w? That would fry the voltage regulator for sure. motorcycles run off a 12V system, so at 420w, the stator produces 420w/12v=35A, if you take it to 850w, the current goes to 850w/12v=70A. That is doubling the current, I would not do that.   Jules Posted on Monday, February 28, 2011 - 06:25 am:        08 stator is as DK says 420W 09 stator is ~532W Are you asking how much power can you draw from an existing 08 Stator or are you considering having the output rating changed? If it is the latter I'll happily swap you my 09 stator, rotor, cover and harness for your 08 equivalent as I am sure a number of other people would too,,, (Message edited by Jules on February 28, 2011)   Dirty_john Posted on Tuesday, March 01, 2011 - 02:25 am:        I agree with Jules, I will happily swop my 09 stator and rotor, if you are in the UK   Rex Posted on Tuesday, March 01, 2011 - 12:34 pm:        This happened to me last night. Tell me what you think? I was going down the road, and the lights and the instrument panel started going out. First the headlight, then Then instrument panel Then the panel went totally off, with a message, that there was an outage. The front headlight was on dim, like a parking light. The fans started running all of the time. I could smell fuel, and the bike was running at a higher rpm than normal idle. I turned around and went back home, not knowing if the taillight was out or not, since I didn't want to get stuck somewhere. I came home, and the bikes fans would not shut off for a long time, the headlight was on dim, and the instrument panel was off showing outage. Finally the fans went off. I came back out later to turn the ignition on, and the instrument panel came back on as normal? I have had the wiring done at the dealer last year. Stator problem? REX
