Stator cost??

[slyone]

I briefly noticed the GS charging problem with these while looking around here and wondered..On my 79' 850 GS, if I were to experience this failure what is the cost for these parts/repair? TIA!

A used stator will run you $10~35 USD. A new one somewhere around $140. A used Honda R/R will set you back $25~40 USD.

If look for used stator, keep in mind that 78-79 will be different than 80 and after. 78-79 has lesser number of poles. If you were to get a 80 or later that has more poles, it will not put out more power, it will not work much at all cuse the pole spacingwill not match the spacing of the magnets.

$95 for new eBay stator too.

12 pole stator can be hard to find.. If yours is good ? I would go thru the wiring and install a Honda regulator even if your reg checks good.. and add a ground wire from the reg to the battery. You could use a 16 pole stator buit would have to change the rotor to match
