Why does your motorcycle run for a while then dies while I'm riding it is it the stator or voltage regulator?

What is a regulator on a motorcycle?
A regulator is referring to a regulator rectifier which converts the ac voltage put out by the stator to dc voltage and regulates it to a consistent voltage usually 12-14 volts dc.
What is a motorcycle voltage regulator?
A voltage regulator converts a/c volatge from the stator to dc voltage and regulates it down to under 15 volts. When they go bad they can over charge and take out a battery as well as not charge at all.
What causes a new battery on a 2002 Ultra Classic to die?
The voltage regulator is bad or the Stator. Check to make sure you do not have something pulling power when the key is off.. Check the voltage should be 12.5 to 14.0, if it is lower then 12.5 with the engine running at idle. Check the stator for ground if the stator is grounding out bad Stator. If not, bad voltage regulator
What does the voltage regulator on a jet ski do?
A voltage regulator regulates and provides the necessary amperage (from the alternator or stator charging system) the vehicles uses and maintins a constant battery voltage.
Where is the stator located on a harley Davidson evo motor?
It is located inside the inner primary at the front of the motor below where the voltage regulator is mounted. The voltage regulator will have a wiring harness that plugs into the stator plug on the outside of the inner primary (the stator is located under the plug). You must remove the outer primary and the clutch basket to access the stator.
Can you get a headlight to fit a crf 70 Honda?
Yes you need to get new stator to generate the voltage, and a voltage regulator to limit the voltage. Add a switch and headlight. Beatrice cycle sells a stator that's a direct bolt in to replace the stator on the bike (stock stator only generates the spark energy). It will be A/C but will work fine, but only when engine is running. If you want to have a battery added to it you will need to get a voltage regulator/rectifer to make D/C.
What is a stator or regulator rectafier on Honda motorcycle?
Stator: This is the device that acts as an alternator. It delivers a charge to your battery to keep up. Most older bikes have to have the engine removed to change this.
HttpwikianswerscomQWhy would your stator and voltage regulator be melting and burning up on my 2000 kawasaki zx12r?
Could be Stator grounding out or Hot wires are touching metal somewhere
How do you test a rectifier for Harley Davidson motorcycle?
check for stator AC output first, check specs for your year, that has to work properly under load to go any further, then check for 12.75-13.50 VDC at the battery with it running, if it tests OK at the stator plug and shows battery voltage dropping instead of climbing at fast idle, suspect the rectifier/regulator It is impossible to test the rectifier, but it is built into the regulator/rectifier and you can test the regulator. Buy a manual!
New battery keep going dead after riding 600 cbr f3 1997?
You either have a bad stator or regulator/rectafier
How do you replace a stator on a Harley Davidson?
Get a shop manual. remove primary cover and primary chain. Remove rotor. Unplug stator from voltage regulator. Remove stator. Reverse process to install. You will need a manual and an impact wrench... at very least.
What regulates voltage for mercury outboard?
It would depend on the stator used. On the 9 amp stator, a regulator is not used due to the low voltage output, this system has a rectifier only. The 16, 32, and 40 amp systems may use single, or dual regulators to both regulate, and rectify the current from AC to DC voltage. To determine which system you have, follow the two yellow wires down from under the flywheel, where the stator is mounted, to either the rectifier, or the regulator. Note: The 40 amp stator will have two sets of yellow wires connected to the dual regulators.
