I’m new to Husaberg but not new to constant hands on to prevent breakages and retain known failures to a minimum.
I raced road race motorcycles for 12 years and did trackdays for 23. I ride gsxr 750s from 2006 to 2018 . I build my own race spec engines , do my own porting and head work . I hire a tuner and even hacked the ecu for unleashing the bikes full potential. 151 rwhp 750s require a lot of maintenance and premature freshen ups.
At any rate I’m a bergamaniac now . I play on a 2002 650 . Having issues already . Died on a ride . My instincts told me stator. SUZUKI also has stator issues regulator rectifier goes bad from warm airflow from ambient and the radiator being engineered poorly. But this bike is different . Upon inspection all of the wiring is hard and brittle . I’m just replacing every connector with high quality 2 wire weather pack connectors . Because I put the old stator back in it after cleaning it and bike fired right up . I then re assemble all plastics etc and bike won’t fire .
So that’s what led me to believe short to ground . All the wiring is worn and discolored . So that’s where I’m at I’ll report back my end result.
Also I’m drilling an 1/8 “ hole in bottom of stator cover for moisture wicking
