Ohhhh ok. The stator plugs into the Regulator/rectifier. Which should be above the stator behind the fairing. You probably would have to take the fairing off, or at least pull it away from the bike to unplug it.Sorry I meant left side alternator cover. The bike is zx6r 2011.
I can't seem to work out where the stator wire leads up too? Where is the end? I need to find the end to disconnect the wire so I can completely remove the stator and altanator cover completely away from the bike.
Maybe get a socket with that hex head and use a socket wrench or even a breaker bar to remove. I got a socket set with all different size hex heads and it was a great investment. I have yet to be beat by a stubborn hex since.I'm actually going through the same process. What are you all using to get the bolts off on the inside of the cover? It's on ridiculously tight and I can't seem to get them off so I can take the stator off without stripping the bolts.
Spray it down with some WD-40 or maybe hit it with a blowtorch. Maybe there's some stubborn locktite in there.Yeah I'm using wrench on it now that fits perfectly, it's just too damn tight! I'll find a way to get it. I didn't even take out the wires because I literally just want to swap covers then put it back on.
Yeah good point. I'll probably try again within the next week when it warms up again and the new gasket comes in.Spray it down with some WD-40 or maybe hit it with a blowtorch. Maybe there's some stubborn locktite in there.
Use a second set of hands to hold the stator cover. I gotta imagine its tough to hold the stator and try to remove that bolt yourself.
I do NOT recommend this as there are plastic components on the stator and wire sealant that can easily be damaged by the heat of a torch.Spray it down with some WD-40 or maybe hit it with a blowtorch. Maybe there's some stubborn locktite in there.
I'm sure you are using the correct star bit, but as I stated above, its difficult to get a good hold of it and create enough torque with a normal hand ratchet to break the bolts loose. This is why I used an impact gun.Yeah I'm using wrench on it now that fits perfectly, it's just too damn tight!
Exactly what I said to do, no? :deviousI didn't even take out the wires because I literally just want to swap covers then put it back on.
