anyone got a stator lying around, only the plate is stuffed but Yamaha won't sell just the plate without the coils. cheers Tim
hey rumble/inga i checked out the new price wow A crank is cheaper! $830 something! I am going to machine up a new mounting plate and reuse the coils. This is the easy part to fix! When the stator has been moving around it has worn the locating spigots away so I have to remachine them or get new cases. this stator comming loose thing is a biggie. Will be something on my list to check in the future. I may make up some locking tabs to stop the bolts comming loose. It is hard to tell exactly what happened as one screw has sheared off the other was foating around in there. Will post some pics this weekend.
Yeah, as long as you have it ready for when we come down Gizzy way over new years. Just be careful making your own one up you need to get the pickups in exactly the right spot or your timing will be out.
Gisborne is going to be a whole weeks event! We are predicting some Insane times in the surf with a crap load of video footage being taken ready to edit and post when we get back! All skis will come home broken.
you can send it off to John at Jetski solutions, postage would be stuff all, bu it's the time it takes, damn site cheaper than a new one and heaps better than factory, I have just had him build an electrical system for my SXR and the stuff is amazing, it's military spec. http://www.jetskisolutions.com/
Hey Capt, Well I fit in to the ski already broken catagory!!!!!!!! Surf has been pretty flat the last month here, surf report this morning said LIKE A LAKE One problem you will face is the designated jet ski area in Gisborne is right in front of the bay watch camping site for the rythm and vines concert. the last two years we have had major trouble with hundreds of people swiming in the ski area, we ended up with the lifeguards trying to move swimers out of the ski area got pretty dangerous and swimers were pretty mad. The Island is probably the best bet for big surf up to 8' in the right swell. Plenty of sharks out there too. A trip up the coast may be the go if the surf is flat in town. Give me a yell and we can catch up and I can show you round if need be. cheers Tim
re sounds good tim,can pm me ya cel number if you like,an we can giv ya a holla when we get down there
na gave me the shits the first time I was one. heaps of kelp to crazy stuff to ride in gets stuck in your intake grate and causes heaps of cavatation. I thought I was going to come to a dead stop riding over the kelp but you just skim over the top. I haven't riden at the island with my new paint yet may scare the sharks off or may attract them?????
Not too worried about the sharks cause i dont plan to fall off! haha nah sweet sounds good tim lets hope there is a good swell running so we can show off to those rythum from behind guys!
Yeap only just, man what a ride. No big swell still like a lake!!!! My motor was sitting on the edge of the bench in the workshop I thought it would have gone for a skate, but hadn't moved! everything else in the house was on the floor!
