Used bike, new owner

So I picked up an 01 "black edition" (I guess) from a buddy of mine for a smokin deal.  It needs a little work, but I'm sure I'll have less in to it than it's worth once I'm done.

 

List of mods are: 

Herr Jugs 4-mil 421cc motor

34mm carbs

in frame drag pipes

huge PIAA healights

ITP cast wheels (i think?)

Hole shots

+2 axle

and probably a lot of other stuff that I can't identify just yet.  I haven't been around offroad vehicles in a long time, so I don't know exactly what I have. 

 

It needs a stator, top-end rebuild, and a bottom end refresh (for my own peace of mind) and it should be fun.

 

First question is, what is a better than stock stator out there?  I have seen Ricky Stator fail right out of the box.

Thanks!

 

The quad is currently in pieces and will be left that way until I figure out everything I have.  I'll probably take it back to herr jugs since he did most, if not all of the work to begin with.

 

I would imagine that the OEM stator is the way to go, however I thought there might be a similar or better alternative.  No big deal.

OEM is the best. There has NOT been a single manufacturer to provide something better then what those little japs could put together.

 

You can try a race tech, they are new and a few have had quirks. However they actually stand behind their products and make sure your sorted out if there is an issue.

So you're in SoCal ?

Yep.  I live out in Kern County in a little shit town called California City.  Plenty of riding out here!  Plus, it's really close to Willow Springs International Raceway for me to run my race car, too.
