ham2 Posted March 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 I have some Orings in the garage you can have if you need to strip it again. Cheers for the offer..you don't have a spare stator lying around do you..just in case? At this rate, back and foot should be usable very soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arun1664 Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 (edited) I cannot see anything dysfuntional there. Put the head on a lapping pate(piece of glass) on a level surface(kitchen table) and rub it around a bit on some 400 grit wet paper! This will insure it is flat, yet the o- rings must do the sealing, so get new ones.Clean up the top of the cylender with a bit of scotchbrite or something to insure you have a good clean sealing surface. You really need to get it back together and run the crap out of it to see what happens. Looke like you need to runtheshietofit to get some heat in the motor from the carbon buildup! Hell, your muff may be plugged with that crap! It may need a douche! If you are going to lap the head suggest you do it by rubbing in a figure "8" pattern. Apologies if I am telling my mother how suck eggs :-) Edited March 28, 2009 by arun1664 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ham2 Posted March 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 Gawd,you couldn't script this....Got it hot on the drive and now it's slightly worse, it's back-firing when warmed up(when I rev it,not when I start it) so I think I'm looking at a new stator? Is the logic that there is so much unburnt fuel in the exhaust that I'm getting the excess heat from there? She starts first or second prod whether hot or cold though?

trialsnutterman Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 either igniting it too early and hence it's getting hot due to the extra work the engine has to do to overcome the early pressure wave while the piston is still on it's way up. or ignition it too late, I've read before if it is back off too much the mixture is still burning as it enters the exhaust so the exhaust gets very hot.

Ta! This is my thinking....just for now I'll put the timing all the way forward to see if the bike is more usable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony27 Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 From my experience of dying stators thats not your problem, generally starting gets worse when hot so see if you can borrow a coil pack off someone else's bike to eliminate the stator as the cause. You're probably looking at the cdi/coil pack being faulty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ham2 Posted October 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 The saga ends....eventually got round to sorting out my stator (thanks to motorplat UK).....What a difference,the bike is way too powerful now,smooth and torquey with no overheating either. Curious things stators,it's not like I had a poor spark or anything!!! Just sparking at the wrong time? Going to retard the ignition now..thank you all for your contributions Wayne 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
