  If it has a bad stator you wont be riding one full day at most especially on any dresser. You need a minimum of 11.5 volts to throw that engine with those specs. And if the stator is gone, the odds the rectifier is not going right with it is about 75%. I have replaced more sets of those for clients than I ever want to think about.
  
  A note from the side here...Its called a battery tender, and they are worth their weight in gold. A quick check for the charging system is a volt meter on the battery connections while its running. You will notice it jumping at about 12.5 to 13......Snap the throttle and you can watch the meter jump up to 14.5 plus.
  
  If the meter just sits there doing nothing...The charging system is shot, and just replacing the rectifier or the stator and not both is asking for trouble....And thats my 2 cents...
  Good Luck / Slippery!!!

  Talent is talent....If you give a mechanic a decent shop to work out of, his creative side comes from within. If they can dream it, they can usually build it with the right funds.....But with the right backing and reality television, the sky is the limit.....I agree that a good host on a Saturday or Sunday morning show...Just Building Bikes.....And I think it could do fantastic.....Everyone is tired of listening to these clowns, and its gotten outta control to say the least.

  Main street, Broken Spoke, Iron Horse...Its all the same, and for the most part the same repetitive crap. And as far as Daytona goes, Main St. is a far far cry from what it used to be 15 years ago. The real partying and real people are on the outskirts of town now at the out of the way watering holes, where yer not paying 6 to 7 bucks a beer. The dance floors are packed and usually with some damn great bands.
  
  The system has created this, and for the most part sooner or later the system will choke itself. Should there be another economic meltdown, Daytona will suffer. but I can assure you those out of the way places will be still be the ones packing the dance floors, and selling ice cold beers for $2.00 a bottle not 6 or 7 bucks because the beer company has flown in some hottie for the weekend to serve those who walk right up and pay it........Its pathetic to say the least....
