Behind the left engine cover. The engine must be almost completely removed to change it out.

What a nightmare job, trust me! You will wish you never started this one. If you do it, put the extra few dollars into the job and install three, in-line fuses between the stator wires and the main wire harness. These fuses will protect the stator just in case you, like me, decide to either 1) jump start the bike with a car (not good) or 2, put the battery charger on the battery while the cables are still connected (not good). Good luck!

the tip about the three fuses is an excellent one. it protects from not only the situations that he mentioned, but from regulator failure as well. The job is pretty time consuming, but nothing that someone with a mechanical mind can't handle. I just started this morning and am about 20 minutes away from having the motor out. Keep in mind that I am NOT a motorcycle mechanic. I work on cars. But it's all pretty simple stuff. The hardest part is the carburetor's, so dive on it.
