As I've mentioned in my 999 thread I need to change the stator again. As I want to also change the Reg/Rec for a later Mosfet type, which will require it to be relocated, it would be good to get one with some longer wiring to give me more options where I join them to the Triumph lead I'll be using. Monster and Multistrada stators have much longer cables for example. I'm sort of convinced that all Ducati Stators are actually the same from @2000 onwards, and the different length cables required for different models is the only reason they have different part numbers. Can anyone confirm this please? Or does anyone know for sure they are different? Thanks
I'm not so sure that they are. They appear to be physically similar but from Ducati's own specifications the outputs vary from model to model : MTS1200 = 500W ST4S = 520W 749/999 = 480W HYP1100 = 480W M1200 = 460W SS939 = 490W Of course the differences in output could depend on how they are measured. Some are quoted at 12V, some at 14V and some don't mention the voltage.
Derek Many thanks for that. Could I ask where that info came from to help me work out what direction to take. Thanks
That's interesting. Like you I have various Owners manuals as PDFs, so following your lead looked at what they say. For all 4 that I looked at: 04 M1000 05 999 03 1000SS Sport Classic 1000 They all say 12V-520W However, the workshop manual for the 999 says 12V-480W The workshop manual for the 1000SS and M1000 say 12V-520 And a workshop manual I happen to have for the M620-750ie models says 12V-520W
Since the stator will be off the bike, couldn't you solder some (heavier duty?) leads which are the length you want?
Unfortunately the cables have a potted on sealing gland which I couldn't replicate. I could join them after the gland without even removing the Stator from the bike, but they've been compromised by Oil passing up under the insulation and I run the risk of it finding it's way out again somewhere.
So Google would appear to be my friend - again. I've uncovered a site that states: Stator Size 115/54/18mm for 749/999/1098/1198 (and I assume 848) https://www.bbbikeshop.co.uk/product/g999 Stator Size 107/42/24mm for Lots of models between 2000 and 2005 https://www.bbbikeshop.co.uk/product/g52d Stator size 103/42/24mm for, well just about every other Ducati between @2000 and @2013 https://www.bbbikeshop.co.uk/product/g75d And for the sake of completeness Stator Size 112/77/30mm for older models https://www.bbbikeshop.co.uk/product/g92 I obviously need to check this, but it does obviously suggest a difference in physical size.
