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?

Cam chain wear/glowing down pipe

Hi there, I just finished the 350 rebuild a few weeks ago and took it out for a spin for 15 miles and decided the jetting was too far out.

Oil pump pin

Hi there does anyone have a spare oil pump pin for sale or know the dimensions? I have lost mine during the rebuild process. If you have the dimensions then potentially I may be able to use a hardened needle bearing (cut to size)? Thanks, I'm annoyed I lost mine!

change gears without a clutch
(Preview)
Google translator.
I do not believe that there was no such question yet, but I do not find. Is it very dangerous in TTR to change gears without a clutch? There are 6 gears, close to each other as in motocross and that's where you usually ride and nothing breaks down.
Best regards and thank you.
