Default Stator Regulator Replacement

Hello
Does anyone have any pictures, video's, step by step guides, tips, etc
about replacing a stator on a 2003 Road King? I do have a Harley shop manual, however I am just looking for something more. There is a LOT of knowledge on these forums! THANKS!

Ron

Default Tips

  1. Make sure stator is indeed bad.
  2. Be careful with (i.e use toll to remove and replace) rotor.
  3. Check rotor for loose magnets or grove in center of rotor (side facing the stator).
  4. WD-40 works well on the stator plug that goes through the primary.
  5. Torque compensator nut properly.
  6. Clutch hub nut loosens CW.
  7. Ensure bolt for regulator ground at transmission exhaust bracket is snug.
  8. If rotor is bad too, consider upgrading to a Cycle Electric alternator kit.
I think that's about it If you have any questions just holla'. I just replaced mine about 3 weeks ago.
