we all know our bikes have a tendency to fire out the charging systems and we know why, merely in real terms why ???
Now I sympathise how the organization works but I tin can't empathise why with regulator and a stat and other bits to stop information technology burning itself out it really does. I tin't recollect a auto that suffered with these bug. I know that it seems to put out besides much current but why don't the bits that control information technology practise and then
Is at that place any tech guys on here that tin break it down simply for marvel

recall it's something to do with the magnetism on some rotors pulsing
And to stiff as u say that's why but replacing stater or rewinding doesn't seem to work for long.faulty parts if u enquire me.

lots of discussion on this over numerous threads. Aprilia released a kit that appears to take fabricated the biggest departure at a cost of close to 1k iirc, which is a flywheel and stator kit. Different strength magnets? Something like that, to be honest it gets confusing reading nigh it all. Much of it is theory rapidly resulting in those interested in electronics, ripping a quality wheel apart and advising others to do the same going back to brown connectors etc.
Some say the charging system, or in item the reg/rec is a blazon that dumps backlog voltage in such a way the stator gets hot. Some say the stator is insufficiently cooled by the oil in the crankcase. Aprilia say it's because the magnets are too strong hence the eventual redesign.
I for one am not ripping my loom autonomously considering of one or two guys baffling theory on electronics, I'll only chusck another stator in if required, but what I'll practise showtime, is continue to expect later my dainty bike/s in that I regularly remove the fairings to clean it and all the connectors, one of which is the brown one near the reg/rec that gets corroded existence at the front of the bike, and becomes a poor connection, which then overheats. Clean and care for it regularly and all the other points, and it'll terminal longer.
I've owned these bikes for fourteen years and changed one stator 2 years ago. My blood brother know owns i, and has washed about a m miles in the last three weeks, and he called me yesterday with a symptom which could be i of a few things, the stator being one of them, and so I need to get to see it.
Sorry if this wasn't the reply you sought, but I urge y'all to resist the temptation to chop out connectors or wire in reg/recs of different designs unless totally convinced of the reason to do it, and make a log of what the changes are for the adjacent owner which is a big part of furure issues. Owners take fiddling idea until something fails, that stuff has been dicked about with.
And so but my2p, in conclusion, I'll stick with Aprilia, and say it'due south the flywheel every bit the root cause. Everything else is near symptom control ;O)

There are two issues in play.
i. is the bikes that re fire out stators on a regular footing = Flywheel
two. Those that kill ane every 10 years or and so.
The latter is just the symptom of a 500w stator beingness driven flat out for 10 years. Although there is a regulator, it only regulates the output to the battery via a shunt. The stator runs at 100% at 100% of the time for any given revs and the excess is simply shunted abroad as heat.
You could liken it to revving your bike to the redline and controlling your speed with the clutch. It'll work but only for so long.
If your bike is regularly killing stators, fit the 380w stator kit. If it's on a ten yr or so cycle, only fit a rewind for £100 and get another ten years. People throw £150 at a new rear tyre every 3k miles and don't bat an eyelid at it, information technology'south not such a big deal every bit some of the internet trolls similar to make out.

That'south a very logical way of looking at it Spoonz.
These bikes aren't the only ones with stators that die, I recollect information technology'due south mutual on a lot of bikes I know my brothers Speed Triple had one. In a lot of cases, information technology'southward just one of those things just that might get lost in the frenzied give-and-take.

I understood the problem was spread over the big iv Japs every bit well,the simply difference existence they protested and got the specs changed to a lower output unit,while Aprilia for whatever reason continued to accept the suspect units until presumably they ran out of stock and and then supplied the new spec by default.

I've owned three Gen2 rsv'due south, all 04-06 plt bikes and but ever had i stator fail and that's my electric current wheel. She'southward fourteen years onetime with around 18k in the clock and going on the service history has never had a new stator before.
I had a rewind washed at the start of the season and its been fine since.
I started out with naught and I've still got virtually of it left

When I had my bike down at Griffs I asked him to have a practiced await at he stator ( due to its known weekness) - and he sait it was perfect - The thiing is tha I have always run heated grips on my bikes every bit My hands go cold and numb subsequently about 5 mins with out them and as it is always on even in the summer low power .
I am wondering if this was cartoon off the excess ability and saving the stator to some extent as information technology has vertainly done information technology no impairment at all .
Burning out a fix of hot grips is a whole lot cheaper than the replacement startor and Flywheel combo.

The stator runs at 100% all of the time regardless of load. Only revs alter information technology'south overall output. Adding load prevents some of the excess existence shunted by the regulator so reducing the regulators heat but has no effect on the stator output unfortunately.
If y'all pass a gyre through a magnetic field information technology generates juice. The but way to reduce that is to make the field weaker, the coil smaller or reduce the number of times it passes through the field (revs). Hence the 380w kit which has a weaker magnets and smaller windings.

later reading some of the comments I checked and it'southward true other bikes suffer from it likewise but no existent tech explanation why other than perhaps the magnets are also potent. The heated grips are a adept theory simply probably more luck than anything else simply like just some bikes are doing it others don't yet same components. Similar I said before all the components internally should control the output the higher the revs the more output just controlled. But conspicuously it'due south the stator or aprilia would issue a new regulator or stat
It'due south the tech witchcraft flake that intrigues me that I'm bang-up to know. In that location'south a tech electrical guy on utube Ward his name is he takes electric components autonomously and breaks downward the issues and causes fairly interesting

well washed spoons I thought when y'all removed the live that energised the coils it stopped generating but if not then that explains why. Different from an alternator that won't produce current unless you lot excite information technology and I call back what protects information technology only when a diode fails does it go into meltdown

I believe most alternators use an electromagnet in the armature so when non energised the magnetic field collapses and they produce no output.
The rsv (and most modern bikes) uses permanent magnets so are in consequence outputting at a fixed charge per unit all the time. Makes information technology very simple as there is no live feed etc but much less adaptable to load than an alternator is.

Still tin can't sympathize why alternators aren't used on modern bikes, my 87 GPz1000rx has one.

Im surprised we still need to relay on alternators/generators in that location must be something more efficient/suitable by at present ?

Dynamo was my era they produce poor outputs so generally had a big pulley so got decent output at depression revs if yous revved them loftier they fell apart. Produced dc though if you put voltage into them they became a motor imagine in those days where loftier revs would be 8k max and now. The poor wee things would explode
Quite fond of the idea of the Magneto though I call back they stick them on some project bikes my bsa had one of y'all took the end off it and stuck it in your pocket it wouldn't get not that bike theft was big then

I am sadly able to remember the 6volt positive earth dynamo equipped cars ....
Many high performance competition engines including aero engines utilise dual magneto's
Might exist more than efficient than what Aprilia utilize in the Gen 2 :-)

Yes but not exactly mainstream manufacturers, I remember benelli utilize them as well.

The modernistic motorcycle magneto ignition is low-cal and hands congenital. Fitting a auto alternator similar kawasaki did on their bus engines was a inexpensive culling lol
what could be easier than a light powerful design similar this. Its twats like nippondenso and piaggio who didnt design the organisation correctly , alongside the canbus sh*tty electrics where whatsoever fault anywhere in the system tin burn out the magneto.

I don't sympathize why the folk can't get information technology right quality command etc but if they were to get made to supercede these parts then perchance more thought would go into the process or go bust At present they are making good coin selling u.s. components that should accept been, firstly fit for purpose, but since we all make mistakes then replaced FOC. I guess because it's not safety related so the current laws don't force them like as in the swing arm smashing saga
Information technology must be obvious that reputation is everything and why the japs peradventure are where they are now. Our British bikes brutal to bits and pissed oil And we stuck our heads in the sand until it was as well late and we had the best engineers in the world

Simply a shame they continued trying to sell rubbish then?
The engineers may accept been adept,but crap management and shoddy working practices allied to overwhelming arrogance and incompetence managed to hand the keys to the forward thinkers overseas.
As my old dominate's used to say " If y'all don't move frontward you're going backwards"
Darwinism at information technology's finest

Nigh of the rsv ignition is from japan. Its deliberate, the bike is designed to last equally long as the warranty. Then make money selling spares to those who choose to keep a bike longer. We live in a dispensable club, purchase today, landfill tomorrow.

We withal have some of the best engineers in the world but if the bosses and accountants won't listen your screwed, it's usually the accountants in my feel that f**k companies upward. I have seen it numerous times where companies have a skillful product only the accounts become greedy and start cutting corners which ends upwardly in turning out a sub standard product.

That might still have a grain of truth in information technology but then think on how we used to be able to hold our own with anyone in the globe just now nosotros tin can't build
Complete aircraft ( Downward from dozens of companies post state of war)
Aircraft carriers ( we take to plead with Thales /French for help with the QE form)
Nuclear power stations ( Chinese)
And that's simply off the summit of my head,there are probably many more
Dyson seem to be the only beacon left
It'southward got to a point where the workforce don't requite a sh*t after being beaten past the management in many cases
I pity the country having to rely on the mod generation in the futurity equally many skills have been totally lost by now and every bit for the "Modernistic Aprenticeship" generally a consummate waste of fourth dimension and only a shortcut to firms having cheap labour.
In that location,I experience amend now

Distressing nearly that ,information technology was but frustration bursting through
I'd just finished watching the news and was and so totally pissed off about the whole brexit fiasco and so that got compounded when they started on about Corbyn and whatever he was spouting about
I merely wish the majority would open up their eyes and endeavour and see behind all the smoke and mirrors
Not a lot to do with burnt out stators though so back on topic
