Rode my 2012 RTL VTwin 375 miles there and back for a Patriot Guard mission Friday. On the way home the charging system gave out and I rode about 125 miles on the battery. So now I am looking at replacing the RR and the stator. I have watched Smoaks video on that and it seems fairly straight forward. Anybody else done this? Is there anything he didn't cover? Any tricks? Also I couldn't find the stator on cheap cycle parts. Anybody have the part #. Or which fiche it is in? TIA. Spyder currently has almost 63,000 miles.

In the BRP Roadster parts catalog go to fiche 03- Magneto and Electric Starter. The Stator Plate is Item 8 in the fiche, PN 420685500, $441.99 and is available. CCP lists it in the same fiche by title at same price.

otherwise be a vulgar brawl.

I would make really sure the " stator " has Failed. .... either eliminate all other causes and/or test the Stator......jmho .... Mike
Thank you all for your responses. Wow they are pretty proud of that stator. Mike it has been my experience that when one goes it takes the other with it. I will be testing them both but don't hold out much hope.

Here is a reputable company to have your stator rewound. Have used him for some years. Does not look like he has units built in stock. But you can check with him at this site. But do make sure you test the stator firs, very good procedure in manual. https://www.facebook.com/RicksMotorsportElectricsInc/
