    Would like to find out if anyone has a part number you can share for both, r/r and stator?
    I looked on revzilla and they want $125.63 for r/r/ $196.18 for the stator and $10.34 for the gasket. This are, as far as I know OEM parts.

    The same parts on amazon cost $74.93 for the r/r, and $132.49 for stator. These parts are NOT OEM, but both parts and seller have good reviews.

    I'm open to suggestions and advice. Thank you.

    My aftermarket stator only lasted two years. That was only about 15, or so thousand miles. Mind you, that was two hard heavy rides through Nevada and onward. When it went the second time, I returned to OEM. Those prices look pretty decent to me.

    For the stator, for some reason I'm leaning towards the oem one, now RRs, for some reason yet to be known, lol, I wouldn't use an oem one. the after market Stators I've seen look cheaply made compared to the oem version. if you where to find out who Honda contracted out to build them maybe I'd go that route.

    Was it Revzilla or Partzilla that you went to? The latter is where I get most of my OEM parts.

    CandyredRC46 schooled me and went for the sh847 from roadstercycle, plus the guy
    (can't remember his name) is awesome and makes them to order.
    If relocating like I did he will make longer wires for you. Still have my oem stator 40,000+ miles
    Good luck

    OEM stator, aftermarket r/rs way to go. Jack at roadstar will hook you up. I can remember his name cause that was the name of my old Boston Terrier. ; )

    OEM is a big NOPE. Get a propper mosfet shunt (fh012aa, fa020aa, etc) or better a series one (sh847)
    Lots of info on the net on this particular subject. I've personally mounted a fh012ab from a triumph with oem stator with no problems at all. Maybe the stator is not on its best shape but works fine for now.

    OEM stator = Good
    OEM rr = Trash
    Electrosport anything = Trash
    FH020 / SH847 = Good
    www.Roadstercycle.com = Good

    Sorry, it was Partzilla that I checked. I noticed they list A VFR 800 AC, and a VFR 800A AC? I've never seen it like that before.

    Good grief brother. At first you were speaking gibberish to me, but now that I see the roadster website I know what you mean.

    Mosfet: No clue what that means, but I sure would appreciate some education.

    "metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor"
    A better type of transister used to regulate voltages.

    Go to roadstercycle.com, he has a important warning about e-bay fakes.

    The alternator (stator) generates AC voltages in direct relationship to RPM.
    The R/R converts the AC to DC and regulates output to the charging circuit.

    Since going with the sh847 and relocating it, even on the hottest summer days here in LA, cool to the touch.
    Also cut off the connector which should no signs of failing and soldered it.

    Spoke with Jack at roadstercycle last night, he recommends I go with his "super kit" since I don't want to relocate it. Now i'm seriously considering a new place for it like duccmann suggested.
