Not in the same way as there is an external alternator in a car but there is a rotor and a stator inside the engine that serves a similar purpose.
The stator on an alternator is used to generate a magnetic field. This is a large factor in the production of electricity.
Stator
the stator on an outboard functions much like the alternator on you car. its sole purpose is to supply the ignition system with power after the engine is started and charges the battery when the engine is running
the rotor in your alternator causes north and south mag. poles, and the wires in the stator pick up the cutting of the mag. flux and this causes a voltage in the stator leads.
There are three exciter diodes on all alternators. They are connected to the stator windings. The purpose of the diodes is twofold. While the engine is running, it turns off the alternator indicator light and supplies power to the voltage regulator.
The stator is the stationary winding assembly that makes the magnetic field inside the alternator. It is this magnetic field that the armature rotates in generating the electricity.
Its called a stator, and on what kind of Bike?
Stator
If we are talking about a dynamo or an alternator, a stator has a rotor inside it. When the rotor turns, electricity is generated.
A for Alternator, S for Stator, I for ignition.
Stator, armature, rectifier, bearings, brushes,
