Tessie is looking better all the time.Just finished adjusting the Cr that is still here in the shop. Damn,takes a while! 15,255 a little past but Got other parts for as well.Guys overseas so I got time.Rt bike looks good now,Especially w/ those letters on the frame. [cool]
 
ok i have the regulator in and it works.
Took 30-40 seconds than slowly climbed to 14 volts.
I need to get some 10 gauge wire.
Biggest i had was 12 so i just made a harness to test it.
pulled the stator and have photos for that aswell.
I will warm anyone trying to pull one lube the harness with some silcone spay.
and the factory silcone in the cover is a motherfer to get loose.
Thanks Jim i got that at homecoming last year.
stator wasn't to bad i knocked a chip off the insulation and there where a couple heat cracks.
So it will get shipped to custome rewing tomorrow.

Few new goodies coming this week From knight design.
But i don't want to spoil the suprise
 
well Alicia didn't send me any pics of them done just the drawings so i would have to describe it and i am a guy.
Best just to wait but i do want to say that knight is awsome to work with
 
For anyone attempting the stator getting the wiring through the loom is a night mare.
I broke the wire i had pulled through took about hour and a half to get it fished back up.

Also found when i went to put the rear plastic on the key cylinder for the trunk hits the new vr connectors.
Will work out another mounting soultion tomorrow
 
Well, in my case I have the Mosfet VR installed on my 08 1125R. Going to ride it to work to test it today.
 
Initial results seem good, though when the fans come on at idle the volts drop a bit on my LED volt meter. Will get a number reading on that one when I get the chance.
 
Well, looks like my stator is going out. When the fans come on my idle volts at the battery show 11.98 and at 3000 rpm it's only 12.02-12.4. Not good. Called Custom Rewind and got a quote. Going to check everything tomorrow to ensure it's not a connection issue first.
