install stator harley sportster

[@n0-one0]

Thanks for not editing this video to make the job seem easier than it actually is. I hate it when people leave out their failed attempts or their strategies that didn't work. Those failed techniques are part of working on a machine. Way too many people edit their videos to show only their successful attempts and it creates incredibly flawed expectations for beginner mechanics.

[@robistallvideo]

Great video. No stupid commentary or unnecessary rambling. Well edited.

That Rotor nut to the Stator is 190-210 lbs of torque with red locktight on it as well, so it will take some doing to get it off usually, I found mine just laying inside my primary cover, so someone who had it before me didn't know what they were doing when they put it back together. Can't wait to find out what is in the clutch assembly. The inner main shaft nut on the clutch assembly is 80-90 lbs with blue locktight. Because you will most likely be in there again to do a clutch job sooner or later. So I would use the blue in the clutch assembly. And yes the clutch main-shaft nut is counter clockwise to tighten it it back on, it is reverse threaded.

[@ShannonCoffey-l6b]

Probably because the previous dude torqued it to 190-210 instead of 240-260 ft-lbs. Also the manual says 70-80 ft-lbs for the main shaft nut, and red loctite.

[@DNB1957]

That sprocket nut has red thread lock, you have to use a little bit of heat on it to break it loose.

[@rustyclutch4496]

The best video on the subject on the internet. No bullshit, straight to the point and well detailed.

[@Bikervation]

Thanks for posting a real video, so many just show the easy bit of unscrewing and not the struggle to get there.

[@leonsmun]

thanks for doing this up! used it as a video guide for my stator replacement 3 days ago.

[@uzzaraff5408]

È il miglior video tutorial di tutti quelli presenti in rete. Nessuna parola, nessuna chiacchiera, tantissime istruzioni valide: il TOP dell'essenziale. Complimenti!

[@irishguyjg_2ndchancerecovery]

Thanks brother! You torquing on that thing made me nervous. Lot of balls. Thanks for the video and knowledge.

[@W6OBB]

I feel so much better after watching your video. I recently had to take mine apart and I too had the small plastic block and a knock off from eBay of that metal tool Harley sales to lock it while you break the nut loose and tighten it back up. I split the plastic block in half and the knock off metal tool bent in half and knocked the shift linkage off. Luckily it didn't break anything. I ended up using a wash rag and jammed it in there and got it off. Felt like it took forever to break that damn thing loose. Sure felt it in the back the next day. Great video!

[@valleyrider8620]

I feel that, every time I work on my bike my back is messed up for days after.

[@1369vmsmith]

Your video was fine ValleyRider. Well shot.

[@Alan-om8mr]

This is a god send. I think my alternator is gone. Bike died this evening. Looks like ill be doing this soon. Thanks for uploading.

[@valleyrider8620]

search youtube for the multimeter tests you can try to pinpoint the problem. woo this job was not fun glad its in the past now

[@Alan-om8mr]

@@valleyrider8620 Thanks. Did some tests on it and changed out the regulator and battery. Working fine now. Glad I didn't have to do the alternator.

[@brucesanborn7484]

There you go,impact! Maranatha, Greetings from Tampa Florida 😎

[@ethenvega3287]

So nobody is confused. It is a 1 & 3-16 for the Main-shaft nut not a 13/16.

[@davedunkelberger7050]

I started taking the bike apart with it in neutral. Should I put it into gear before attempting getting the sprocket nuts off ?

[@ShannonCoffey-l6b]

My shop manual says that for an XL (that has a nut) the engine shaft nut is torqued to 240-260 ft-lbs, not 190-210, The XR engine has a bolt with a lower torque value. Don't take my or anyone else's info on that, double check with a manual. That is 50 ft-lbs higher and evidently a reason for such a high torque value. So, the nut does not come off.

[@acidsurfers]

Why did you use a new retaining ring for the adjusting screw?

[@davedunkelberger7050]

Is there a gasket that goes on when you remove the case? Does it need to be replaced?

[@corbinhbucknerjr558]

Yes. You can get Genuine James or Cometic kits from companies like J&P or Dennis Kirk among several others, just the primary case gasket, or a full kit with all the "O" rings and gear shift seals.

[@That_Doode93]

Could this be a resson why when i stop a red light or a stop sign my sounds like it wants to cut out its fine when im moving but when stop and it idles its always choppy

[@johnresto1603]

what is the block that you used when unloosening the nut called?

[@MrBlas8]

Where did you order the stator? Looking for good quality with low price thank you for your video great help 🤙🏽

[@franklinmatthews8558]

There’s no such thing as good quality and low price

[@matthewburns6843]

Yeah that defines an eBay order if I've ever heard one

[@diehard8061]

Jp cycle

[@AnthonyRBlacker]

Can't you use an impact wrench on that nut? edit: ...yeah so the first time i pulled on that breaker bar and it gave me that much resistance, impact gun it is.. ok cool.. thanks for the video, I have no real motorcycle repair experience (I'm a mechanic tho) but yeah so thanks

[@remapeoscanarias1638]

Thank you very much.

[@rinardfamily]

What is the torq on the stator

[@evanduty6150]

Do you need to test the rotor? Or is it a case of "if they're still magnetic, they're fine"

[@acidsurfers]

I think you’re good as long as they are clean, undamaged and still magnetic

[@serviceproper]

Thanks for the video. What was the torque settings for the sprocket nut and mainshaft nut? Also did you use red locktite on the sporcket nut as well or just the mainshaft nut? Thanks

[@sammy60164]

Is it necessary to remove the clutch pack to get chain off? Thanks for video, have to do this soon, mine is bad, no AC volts when running

[@valleyrider8620]

I think its the only way

[@sammy60164]

@@valleyrider8620 actually, just pulled mine yesterday, your right, not enough slack without pulling clutch basket. After doing it, pulling clutch basket was actually really simple. Actually so far the whole thing has been simple, waiting for parts. Thanks for your video. Watched about 10 diff videos before pulling apart

[@markg5966]

What led you to bad stator my sporty won’t hold a change for then a week and a half and sometime rides funny

[@valleyrider8620]

google for multimeter stator test

[@andreisamuel2939]

E so colocar a chapa entre os dentes do magneto e a campana de embreagem e mais fácil pra soltar a porca de ambos

[@stevel1451]

Thanks for no stupid music

[@SportyRider]

Thanks for this!

[@MrCamachin]

Very good video,it will be very usefull very soon 😓

[@repo445-d4h]

on removal you have the blocking tool inserted the wrong way around

[@valleyrider8620]

are you saying it should be at the top left at 0:35 ?

[@Mack_and_Jon]

For sure i will be using an air gun when i need to do this

[@valleyrider8620]

If my pythons couldn't break it loose its not possible. haha

[@andreisamuel2939]

E só colocar uma chapa entre os dentes da campana de embrenham e do estator

Never bring you Harley to Barrie Harley Davidson for a fix. 1 st time I brought mine I ask them to check to tachometer and other thing, got my Harley back speedometer and signal light auto shut wasn't working, brought it again in the winter for storage and have other things fixed including speedometer, a short in my lights put a new battery. 1 month after the season was started they still had my bike, they never returned my calls, to the point that I call the cops toi have my bike back on it all was fine for a few ride then my battery died, change the regulator it wasn't the problem it was my stator! Both time I brought my bike there it came out with new issues. Never Again

[@michaelcurtis7213]

Some are really less intelligent then the ones who should never be aloud to touch anytime tool related not even a staple. First use common sense I have never seen a locking tool put on top n grew up wrenching since & a kid dad had hot rods . And I don't like paying money I don't have to fix right after a so called dealership can't figure it out of can't fix the probably . And also worked at 6 licensed HD dealerships while already working. On Harley's took the tests at lunch just to have the paper to not void my warranty n your. And recently bought my 3rd brand new harley . I immediately cancelled my warranty after my first 500 mile service on my 2017 FLTRX- I not only the neck bearing we're not just lose bad n my front wheel was bent. Removed the Harley tires and put another brand balanced. It is a little better. But not there yet. I am at the making sure motor mount is good or tight ,motor is aligned. They make some next expensive lasers to check if you don't know that a measuring tape should have same # as u put it on each side of the shock bolts to stem . Even if it cost 1500 to get the tools you and your brothers will help the dealership get it right for having to have that MMIcertifate to find out by 2030 they will be all electric. And still in France . Miko Curtis Tulsa Ok former employee of the Real Motor Company RIP HD.
