Replacement NON OEM Stators

Hypocycloid3 · Jan 29, 2015

Was just wondering if there are some others who have opinions one way or the other on the non OEM Stators for sale from Ricks Motorsport Electric out of Hampstead, NH?

Senior Member Bill Seward mentions them in this post http://www.vmaxforum.net/showthread.php?p=326462#post326462 - from 2013 but was just hoping to maybe get a consensus how these hold up over an extended time and if there is any concern with the additional power generated by the upgraded windings they claim to come with.

Didn't need one on my Vmax, but I've used a Rick's stator every time I've needed to install a new one on a bike. Great quality, usually better than OEM.

I have used Ricks numerous times on all kinds of bikes & have never had a problem with them.

I am sure there like any one else & have a bad one from time to time but I have not seen it.

Got one since 1 year, heavy duty model, no issues with it...

I bought a Ricks Motorsports stator for my 89 Venture Royale , no problems at all, that was a couple years ago.

My brother put a Rick's stator in his FZ-1 and it works perfectly.

I got mine last summer. Works great!

Rick's +1

I have Electrosport stator in my Max and my GS. The one in the gs is a few years old, works great. They are "overwound" for higher output. Rick's makes great quality stuff also.

There you have it... Ricks makes a good product, at a reasonable price.

Does anyone know the difference in output between stock and Rick's? Also, does Rick's have different outputs available? If you get a higher output stator, do you need to make any other changes (r&r, etc)?

I cannot run all my accessories/lights at the same time without depleting my battery. (Odyssey). And this is at constant highway speeds.

This hot shot stator from Rick's says it has 20% more output than his Stock replacement

You could look at the one listed in this thread also:

I purchased the 21-405 model from Rick's. This is also the same model listed for the 1300 cc Ventures. If memory serves me correctly, at the time I did some further digging, and found that the OEM stator puts out 350 watts, while the 21-405 claims 400 watts. As D-man points out, the 21-405H puts out an extra 20% more, which would mean about 480 watts! For an extra $20.00! An extra 130 watts more than OEM! Enough to support TWO extra high beams! (or one s_ _tload of other accessories)
No, you do not have to change out anything else. Installation is straightforward, just use some RTV sealant around the rubber grommet thingy.
Cheers!

One complaint I heard about a Rick's and he replaced it with new no hassle. Off topic, hey Redbone, New avatar of twelve year old is creeping me out. Maybe revisit her in ten years?!
