I used the test that Ratbuell posted and these are the readings I got pins 1-2= 10v pins 1-3= 37.5v pins 2-3= 38v I am not exactly sure what this means. I am not exactly sure why the one would be so low while both of those pins were higher when involved with pin #3? I went for a ride and it would go up to 14-14.4 until it was over 195 deg. Then with the fans running it would stay around 13-13.2v at speed (rpms>3k) when I would stop at a light it would dip to 12.4 or so. My question is, and I am afraid I know the answer, is one of the legs on my stator done? I know it is anybody's guess but how long will it last with only the two? | ||

yup one leg is done | ||
| Bhillberg |
do I get some type of prize... it has under 2500 miles on it | ||

Yeah, you get a craps roll on how long it will take to fix it. Good dealer 1-2 weeks, bad dealer 3-? weeks. | ||

Those are similare readings to mine - i.e. your stator is shot. Oddly enough witht hose readings there is just enough power being produced to keep the bike running and charging as long as you don't spend a great deal of time in traffic. You could get the dealert to confirm your findings and then order a replacement stator while you keep riding the bike. IF you can, try to get HD to pay for a retrfit of an 08 stator/rotor... Failing that see if they'll pay for a rewind which is what they are doing for me... | ||
| Bhillberg |
Yep, I am going to try to see if they will do an 08 swap. If not I will either pay for rewind myself, or buy a salvaged 08 motor and go retrofit it myself. | ||

See if they'll pay for a rewind - that's what my dealer are doing for me right now.. | ||
| Bhillberg |
Kinda nervous about the rewind... I mean I know it has to be better than just putting another 09 in there but it seems like some people are starting to have problems with those now too arent they? | ||
| Bhillberg |
Just talked to the dealer, they said that they would be willing to put the 08 stator in.... but would not pay for the 08 rotor. Anybody got a price on the rotor? I would pony up for it if it's not astronomical. I remember the total being around 1800 but I forget what the breakdown was. | ||

08 rotor is pricey. In the 7-800$ range. IIRC | ||
| Yugi |
08 rotor is $675 after 20% discount. It's more expensive than 09 rotor, which is $589.60 Part number for 08 is Y0533.1AM for 09 part number is Y0533.2AM 08 stator part number is Y0442.1AMA and it's $543.63 09 stator part number is Y0442.2AM and it's $543.64 (Message edited by yugi on July 22, 2011) | ||
| Bhillberg |
what's this 20% discount you speak of? | ||
| Yugi |
I buy parts from online dealer who gives 20% discount. I'm not sure if I can publish it's name here, but I can send it to you. | ||
| Bhillberg |
I wonder if the dealer I would be having do the service would allow me to bring them the rotor? They said that they would cover the stator but I would have to pay for the rotor. Also, do you have any idea the availability of these? If you want to pm me the site or dealer name then I can do the legwork. Thanks. | ||
| Yugi |
No, I don't have any idea on availability. | ||
| Zac4mac |
Y0533.1AM Yup, that's the p/n for the 08 rotor. And yes it is available, should get it in a week or so from order date. It IS inordinately expensive. I have to look at people ALL day long and tell them these prices... I really wish H-D would get a clue... Z | ||
| Jdugger |
Wow. You can buy a whole 08 motor for around twice that... | ||
| Bhillberg |
kinda what I am thinking.... get a salvage motor and switch it over. Still waiting to hear back from the dealer. Will call another one tomorrow. | ||

Whats it cost for the Can Am Spyder? Or the KTM RC8? |
