[@ilyas5708]

Bike's a beaut. Thanks for the video, really helping me start troubleshooting my shadow.

[@SBMMNARRATIVE]

Just got the same parts I was worried because of the price but I haven’t seen one bad review yet ‼️

[@captleo435]

how long did it last all I hear is Bad reviews on Caltric elc parts dats why so cheap

[@SBMMNARRATIVE]

@@captleo435 I didn’t have a single problem with for a year all the way up to when I sold the bike still cranked and ran as good as ever with these !!

[@CarlosLopez-lm3lu]

Great video, could you please write down the torque values for case bolts?

Hello friends here's a different way to wire a Shadow Spirit.

[@billkingdom5038]

Hello- appear to have same issue so going to replace stator as no elec coming out of it.. Question - a honda OEM is 10 times the price.. How long did the old one last. Same for the rectifier. Thanks in advance.. just curious at such a price difference Thank you. Great video by the way

[@HiRevzMedia]

Caltric seems to be a very good brand, even their batteries are good. This kit worked perfectly. Caltric did not sponsor this video either, we paid for everything and were very surprised at the quality.

[@billkingdom5038]

@@HiRevzMedia legend. Thanks mate. Going to see them tomorrow to get a unit. No reading on the volt meter coming out of it and so have to diagnose that stator has gone. Not bad for 33 years old .... Thanks for responding and the video.

@@HiRevzMedia do they have the stator and resister for 1989 Honda shadow vt500? Been having quite a hard time finding them

[@chrisdimmitt7012]

Great video od honda charging system

[@mrgimpie]

Honda makes a plug replacement kit for the GL1200 that addresses the stator/reg rec plug and it fits all hondas with the same (shadows) plug.

[@captleo435]

the plug is the problem best to not even use a plug I use crimp connectors to get a good tight connection way better than solder just laying over it solder is for boards

[@WildmanWard]

Thank you so much

[@RandyKraege]

Some stators dont have the connector on them, just wire. Buy the one with connector, Im on my 3rd one, last one was done at a Honda dealer. Very expensive.

[@shanew3293]

Excellent - Thanks

[@dmbshms]

I’m getting 17 volts to my battery can this just be a voltage regulator or is it my stator 2003 shadow Sabre 1100

[@joevillan892]

I’m getting 18 on my VT750… I hope it’s only the regulator. We did some testing and it stays at 13 while idle but jump to 18 while rev

[@johnmichael9354]

I’m having the same problem and I’m just trying to get a connectors and reconnect the wires but the problem is how would I know which wire is negative or positive? Since they all yellow wire? Does it matter?

[@RandyKraege]

Did you do them yet? just do them one at a time or mark them with different color tape.

[@captleo435]

it doesnt matter all 3 are hot wires 3 phase charging unit

[@radsdad1]

I like your bike.

[@paulbraverman1432]

What do you think of the Caltric parts? The price seems too good to be true.

[@HiRevzMedia]

I’ve been very happy with all of their products, their AGM batteries also.

[@captleo435]

I only hear bad reviews sorry

[@Bricklinsv1970]

Im fixin to do this on my 1100 shadow. Any tips?

[@rippyricardo6991]

Did the kit end up coming with the starter mech gasket?

[@nathanielselvidge4157]

Thanks for the video! How has it been running since you fixed it up?

[@HiRevzMedia]

It was perfect. I never had another charging issue, and the wires never started heating up again. It did great.

[@ryds1000]

then connecting the. the 3 yellow cables from the stator does it matter which of the yellow cables are connected to each other. (google translate). thank you.

[@cameroncross6641]

I have the same bike but its a 2001 and my question is will it fit

[@luis0luis058]

a question what do you think of the quality of the stator and caltric regulator ???

[@HiRevzMedia]

Very nice quality!

[@luis0luis058]

[@kadonisawesome]

They’re a hit and miss. I got one that crapped out after 5 minutes. Get a electrosport and not worry about it

[@ravedatsik4133]

@@kadonisawesome is that brand close to oem quality?

[@captleo435]

@@ravedatsik4133 no where near its cheap junk

[@antonblast]

I broke that part you were using to pry it open :(

[@joelbaccus1416]

This literally just happened to me an hour ago…ugh…

[@jasoneager9323]

Me too taking the side cover off. Didn't see that pin. 😬 Whoopsie.

[@RilexHacks]

Is it normal to drop voltage like that when you are revving it up?

[@nilsandersson502]

No, Probably your regulator/rectifier has give up the ghost.

[@astro4248]

Can’t find the stator and resistor for vt500 Would the ones for vt600 work?

[@captleo435]

no the one from a vt700 fits

[@JohnTitor177]

That's poor craftsmanship. Get a MOSFET Shindengen regulator and run the new stator wires straight to the new regulator.
