regulator, rectifier, rotor, stator
« on: August 20, 2008, 07:27:50 PM »
 I priced a rotor, reg/rec, stator today at a local bike shop. I was wondering if these were good prices.

 rotor- $145.00
stator- $145.00
reg/rec- $100.00

and a chain for $62.00 bucks

and I think these were all for new items

Seems about right for an aftermarket or rebuilt rotor. If it's a new OEM rotor, it's something ridiculous, like 2x as much as you're stating. Not sure about the prices of an OEM R/R, or stator.

My rotor is crappin out too-common fault on the cb650. I keep bugging Electrosport when they hope to re-stock. One of their sales reps emailed me back stating they hope within another month or two...yikes! Riding season will be over for me or just about by then in Chicago.

You could try rebuilt units to save a few bucks, but you'll have to send in your cores also, and you're bike will be grounded till you get the parts back. I've been hawkin ebay...some fellow named Tim Parrott rebuilds the stators and rotors.

If you're a cheap bas@#$d like me, this is an interesting thread for for a homebuilt R/R, although I haven't tried it:

If you want an aftermarket R/R you can bolt on, try this:

Don't know about the chain.

Electric parts seem cheap, are they new or used? If used how long are they guaranteed? Chain is too cheap to be any good except as a temporary stopgap

I think it was allnew stuff but I am sure I am wrong on that. The Chain the guy said the bottom of the barrel chain was 28 bucks and the top of the line was that one forb 62 bucks. I will find out more and let you guy's know.
