I agree with your assessments, I'm going to eliminate the plug entirely, and hard wire both stators into place. Replace any damaged wires as far back as required inside the harness. I could pick up a...

Electrical harness burnt up near stators

Anyone else have the issue where the connectors failed, melted and burnt the wires near the stators? Just the charging wires have been damaged, not the remaining sensor wires in the harness....

I'm leaving the day of the 9th, overnighting in Radium and on to Chewelha for the 10th. Operator sold his trike so I'll be coming down solo. See you all there.

Job completed. Very pleased with shimming the side slop on my swing arm. Slipped in .030" steel shims on either side of the yolk and now only have .003" side play. Put the back end back together,...

Use steel shims if possible. With new grease seals you'll still have side to side play. New from factory there is still too much play in my opinion.

Correct, there is no spec from Kawi on the side to side play in the swing arm. The needle bearings only deal with the up and down motion as the swing arm travels with the tire and road. The side to...

Pre rally maintenance

Been putting it off but have to replace my clutch spring, change oil and replace the rear tire. So I might as well remove the swing arm and drive shaft and check those areas as well. Oh well, there...
