      I see a lot of Polaris dealers listed for Ontario. Look it up under the Polaris part number 4012941.

          Mississauga is a little to far for me to travel. I figured if you were close to me I could stop over and help. I'm across the river from Petrolia/Sarnia.

            Ouch !! Ready honda is the dealer here for polaris . The sh775 r/r isnt to bad its priced at $96.99 plus tax ..
            But a oem stator is $285.73 plus tax
            Or the guy says he can get a ricks after market stator for $190.00 plus tax ...
            However the guy suggested checking the rotor says that if the magnets are gone , doing the stator test could give you a false reading ??

            I dont know .. im no electrician !!

                This ready honda place I dont like dealing with . There the parts place for suzuki , honda , polaris etc . And every time I get parts from them they seam to be wrong .. and they always take two weeks . Heck the valve cover gasket for my gs650 they got me the wrong gasket . Then when I relized it they wouldnt even take it back !!!

                    Don't guess if your stator or R-R is bad. Measure them. The links are in Posplayr's signature.

                    Also, get the number from the R/R you put on your 650.

                      OH boy, a magnet test- just what has posplayr been waiting for!
                      PM Steve, he can get your stator rewound ( yours is likely a 12 pole stator-not the more common 18 pole on 1980's and up) for under $100.

                      Or get adventurous and go ebaying or salvage yard digging- of course, if you are in a hurry....

                            The shop around the corner from me will charge $150 bucks and thats to just look at the bike and electrical and run a few tests to see exacly what isnt working .. then $95 an hr and price of parts to fix it.. damn !!
                            I dont wanna give up on this bike but the cost to fix things I just cant afford at the moment .. looks like im back to walking and busing around again for a bit ...

                              You enjoy spending money don't you?

                              Could be nothing more than bad connections as the route cause.
