2001 650--Should I?

You mean no spare?

Yes. Although I do have one for an FC470. Maybe that would work as a core charge or something?
But I would assume Zaga would need the stator I intend to use as it would be the one getting rewound.
 
Why not try zaga. His rebuild is a good price.

just to remind you that mine are cheaper before VAT. so I guess the only winner is Brussels and the French Farmer when you come to me!

I also cut deals with everyone who avoids places like ebay and pay-pal.

let's have an equal playing field here when we talk about these things OK?

and remember how long Sparks and I have been selling these stators.

any repaired stator should last two years unless you immerse the bloody thing in water in which case you are stupid, lazy, have no warranty or any of the above! :D:D

Well, I've actually been trying to sell this bike locally with not much luck. (I picked up a 2002 Husky TE570 that runs killer) :eek:

In the meantime I've been digging into its issues a little more.
The auto decomp is not working at all so I removed the rocker cover and didn't immediately see anything really wrong. The decomp itself looks okay and the spring retracts albeit it feels rather weak.
I don't have anything to gauge what I'm looking at but it doesn't seem like the part that is supposed to lift the roller off the lobe sticks up hardly at all.

I do know one thing--I need a camshaft. :mad: The intake lobe is pitted to heck on the trailing side of the lobe.
Everything else looks really nice. It still has the factory aluminum cam sprocket and conical valve springs.

I want to see if I can get this thing running with the current stator by getting the auto decomp to function as it should.
When I spin the engine over by the e-start with the plug out, it gets a killer blue spark. I'm hoping that if the decomp works, it will spin over fast enough to light off.
If it does, then I'll more than likely send the stock FC stator over to Taffy for a rewind.

Anyone have a nice camshaft and/or a decomp set-up they'd care to part with? :D
 
Can you kick while e-starting? Sorry if that's an absurd question.
I've done it but it isn't recommended!

you really want to try and get the 04-08 cam with sprocket and decomp all as a used package. get them out of a 450-650. the decomp spring still is too weak.

then you have to put a 33 or 35PJ in it.

just make him a bid for the cam or even better......wait a while, be patient.

or is that easier said than done!

I have to admit, Taffy, I'm not the most patient guy sometimes. :D

Guess I'll just wait a while and see what else shows up. It's not like I have a deadline to get this bike going.

Thanks.
