STICKY:
Output of stator (AC magneto generator) and wattage used by bulbs, etc.
(Preview)
So, I'm looking for more power! I have a '94 raid. I am hoping to add electric grips and an electric vest. Grips run at about 60 watts. That's almost half of what the stator produces. Are there any aftermarket stators for the bike? Am I looking at a rebuild?

Hi Folks, would appreciate a bit of advice on this if possible. The riding experience on my 05 TTR is best described as "clunky" with respect to the throttle take up, smooth and progressive it is not.

After some time and a solid whack on the speedo it jumps to life and is OK for the res...
