Need Help Finding R/R

[amontyg]

After reading the stator papers and performing the diagnostic procedure on the electrical system of my bike I believe my R/R is bad. I have been searching for the best replacements to buy and have seen people purchasing used Honda R/Rs. I can't seem to find a list of R/Rs that would be compatible with my Bike. Is there a list somewhere on the site? If not, I could use some help in finding one that will work.

The FET type are as good as it gets unless you step up to a series type, which cost big bucks. This is not the cheapest I've seen these, but if you are in a hurry...http://www.ebay.com/itm/Honda-Forema...ht_1730wt_1185

Here's my thread on the R/R Nessism linked http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum...d.php?t=175127 Good unit.

I don't see the R/R that tom203 posted on the list of acceptable R/Rs provided by koolaid kid. It is on the list, I just don't see it in blue text, which is supposed to mean it is compatible.

Can anyone confirm that the R/R tom203 posted will work for the '82 GS550LZ?

I'm an electronics newb and will most likely make a mistake here if I'm not careful.

Yes, it work. That unit uses what's know a "sense" wire. Make sure you hook it up accordingly. The info how to do so is in the archives or on Basscliff's site.

You would think so but Steve says it doesn't need one.It's in my link.

Thanks guys, tom203, you may now rest easy as I have taken the R/R off the market.

Another quick question:
When following the diagnostic procedure in the link below, in part B test 1, my stator read around 1.7 ohms on all stator leads. Since the acceptable range is .5-2 ohms does this mean my stator is on it's way out?

I have one off a Goldwing. Let me know if you want it.

Doublecheck your multimeter battery or use another- all the stators I got test just under 1 ohm.
