Thanks a lot - I just replaced both the stator and voltage regulator on my '03 Sporty and this helped a ton. Super easy, besides the stator bolts that some idiot must have thought were supposed to be tightened in ft/lbs - three heads stripped trying to remove them. Two of them I was able to remove with a bolt removal kit, the third I had to drill out the head then use vice grips to remove the threads!

I have a question . What happens when I unscrew this large nut with a left-hand thread like with a right-hand thread?
@SvartaMasken4 жыл бұрын
I am not quite sure that I understand your question. A left-hand thread nut works just like a right-hand one, only that turning it clockwise (right) will loosen it and turning it anti-clockwise (left) will fasten it instead of the opposite.

Just went through the process of changing the stator and voltage regulator on my 1999 883 Sportster....and had to buy a impact gun so to remove the front nut as it would NOT break loose with a breaker bar....(no way).....feeding the stator wire through/under the cover plate on the other side was a freaking nightmare....I tried using a piece of string as he did in this video but even that was a pain in the buttocks. I wrapped electrical tape really tight around the wire so it wouldn't keep getting hung up as I was trying to fish it underneath the cover plate....(lost count on the number of times I said "oh lord....please let me get this wire through this tight area"......after about an hour....I finally managed to get the wire through. All in all... this wasn't to bad of a job to do myself....and I saved myself quite a bit of money.....(HD dealer wanted $671.00 in parts and labor to change a $64.00 stator).

Yes, feeding the wire is such a PITA even with the string. I wouldn't want to know how bad it is without it...

@jayclark59124 жыл бұрын
This is a good fix however you all out there might want to consider quality hot melt glue to carefully glue the hub and counter weight back on. You may not even need glue as its a pressed snap in fit. I say this because super glue and Loctite glue has the potential to outgas an can cause hazing inside the gauge on the lens.
@SvartaMasken4 жыл бұрын
Good point. And yes, there should be no need for glue, but I really wanted to make sure I never have to go in there again-had the snap in fit design been sufficient I wouldn't have had to do this fix in the first place. The glue I used has caused no hazing so far, and it's been 2½ years now. Perhaps I was lucky. :)

That's one of many benefits of using an impact wrench! It turns so fast and quickly that it won't get around to spinning the large mass of the chain & friends. Go physics!

Yes, this is the very same procedure as one would do when changing dial. You will find other videos here on KZbin that changes the dial on speedos (but for BT:s where the unmount-from-bracket-part differs while the having-opened-it-up-part is just the same).

A bit of advice...on the derby cover bolts just use manual wrench not power as they are VERY easily damaged by the force in which you do and undo them, personal experience.
@SvartaMasken7 жыл бұрын
I'd say it is more important to use good bits (prio #1) and then common sense (prio #2). It's, as you can see in the video, no problems whatsoever to use powertools given they are used gently (the gently part goes for all tools, manual and powered). Furthermore, I usually use powertools when taking things apart and then manual tools (like the two differently sized torque wrenches used in the video) when I assemble. The summarized bit of advice that would come out as more useful would rather be to pay attention to the derby cover bolts and handle them gently regardless of method since they are sort of delicate. IMO.

@SvartaMasken6 жыл бұрын
Since you reassemble with red Loctite, this is not something you pull off easily. Now, the impact wrench did it smoothly enough, so one might try it out with some long braker bar, but I would most definitely spend some beer money on such a cheep noname brand impact wrench as the one used in this video that does the job in a jiffy.
