spurdy Posted May 15, 2009 Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 i found something by just googling about a defective stator from moose, but i guess that happens with everything. i did read about some people melting wires with the HO stators. im more limited to the fact that i want to run everything off the factory switch, so the 75w bulbs are out for sure. do you think a stock stator can push the 2 50w bulbs, or should i just got with the 35w? i want as much light as possible for my vegas trip. I personally think the stock stator is the most reliable. And no, I wouldn't run 50s off it. I run 35s off mine and it isn't super bright but I can get by.

SAVAGE420 Posted May 15, 2009 Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 I had my stock stator rewound too 200W, works flawless and IMO it's the cheapest and most cost effective way to go. I run 50w trail techs per side and its very bright! :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

official_style Posted May 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 Out of that entire thread, how did you come to the conclusion that the Moose stator was garbage? I've never heard of anyone having issues with the Moose stator. Just the Ricky Stator ones and the RM ones from Canada and with those it seems like it is luck of the draw. But I didn't see any posts that said anything about Moose other then they have had good luck with them. And I would have to say I'm in that group as well. SP now i can confirm moose stators are garbage, i bought 2 of them. one, the bike has no spark. the other it misses and runs like shit at mid to high rpms. both ran perfectly with stock stators. install is perfect, i have installed a ton of stators, and never once had a problem. so yes moose stators are junk.

MAN lol, you should have listened to me and got your stock stator rewound to 200W, mine has been flawless and never messed up on me. Just it was done buy a guy that gives a shit how it will preform and was not one of the mass produced ones in china where they try and get 9380303784 out the door in one day or wherever and how the other HO stators are made. Good luck man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck man. i tried to get it re done, i called so many places and everyone said they cant do it. i called trailtech, they wont do it, rickystator said they can but im not trusting there eggroll workers to do it. im just going to run 35w bulbs and stock stators. time to rip everything apart AGAIN. i fucking hate chinese sars ass bullshit.

official_style Posted May 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 i can still run the typanium voltage regulators i got from ricky stator, or should i put the stock regulators back in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snopczynski Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 If you have Ricky stator rewind your stator, they dont do it in China. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
official_style Posted May 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 im gonna just run 35w bulbs for this trip, and return the moose garbage. when i get back, ill do the DC conversion and go LEDs, it seems like the best option. the upgraded regulators seem to be working fine, ill just leave em in.

Woolfman Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 Yea but I would have to convert to dc, and run a battery and all that bs then No you don't they make a 35w kit that does not require the conversion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastbanshee8 Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 I've had the 250w Moose stator for 6 years, and I've never had a single problem with it. My bike runs great, and I'm running two sets of light off of it, with no problems at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
official_style Posted May 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 ill bet moose did the same shit ricky stator did, and switch to bs chinese ones. yours is probably a good one from before they switched to the china crap. ill stay oem, the last thing i want to be worrying about is if my stator is gonna die when im like 50 miles from the truck, or dipping on some faggot ass cops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
