Stator issue

webmonstro · Nov 20, 2016

Ok

1997 HusaberG 400

So my bike was running great , then suddenly it just stopped, go it to run another 1/2 mile then died again
I checked for spark and couldn't see any

It was raining a lot !!!

I phoned a friend to pick me up and got towed back home after waiting half a hour in the pouring rain !!

Once home checked the stator values and found the following :

RED/BLACK - 1650 Ohms
GREEN/BLACK - 23 Ohms

So red-black is a bit low but still in the 10% tolerance
green-black is spot on

Checked for spark again and got some and managed to get the bike started
again

Removed the stator cover and found alot of water drops on inside of cover
guessing the humidity is causing problems

Or could my stator be on the way out ?

looks to be the original one with the red coil

No bad connection or damaged wires , good clean connectors

Thinking maybe seal the cover with silicon ?

Maybe make a vent for the cover to remove humidity ?

Move to the desert ?

Any ideas ?

Thanks

that was so that you wouldn't malfunction old timer!

now the stator has been wet, it will let go very soon. i would stick it a thing called an 'airing cupboard' if you still have them over there?

just get it as dry as possible, smear vaso all over it, clean everything out, drill up from underneath into the crankcase with a 6mm, get the ignition timing done as per videos by me on Facebook Taffmeisters Videos of an FE600 and then silicon everything. I'm talking cover, rubber grommet, top of the wiring conduit.

you'll get another week out of it.....

So how much for a replacement ?
or better to rebuild ?
Will need a puller , 26mmX1 right ?

I've seen so many theads on the subject that it get's confusing
as to what would be the best bet

that photo looks just like England, rain, rain and more rain!!!!!

first of all, it is a Mk1 stator. everyone else is talking about what to do about what 'we' at taffmeisters call the Mk3 stator. (KTM used a stator in between the husaberg Mk1 and Mk3 so we call the KTM stator the Mk2).

they can be repaired just the same as the Mk3s can. same price and same process. as for Electrex? no idea BUT I will say one thing....IF they make a Mk1 and if the Mk1 Electrex is anything like the Mk3 then you must strobe time it as they time differently.

we do the repair on them as a part exchange item and we have 2 on the shelf. we can only do a deal away from fleabay OK?

iirc, it's a 26 x 1.5 rh thread. see pic (one on the left, other is a bicycle crank puller)

OK
I've got a puller but it's for a Yamaha so it's left hand thread , and i think its 27 mm so it's a no go

You got the puller too taffy ?
