Thanks a lot - I just replaced both the stator and voltage regulator on my '03 Sporty and this helped a ton.
Super easy, besides the stator bolts that some idiot must have thought were supposed to be tightened in ft/lbs - three heads stripped trying to remove them. Two of them I was able to remove with a bolt removal kit, the third I had to drill out the head then use vice grips to remove the threads!
Thanks for the feedback, and good that you got through with the job despite those awful stator bolts of yours.
Brilliant video learnt more by watching this video which was well presented and very clear in it's instruction than pouring over endless manuals and other stator vids on u tube. Many thanks and a great bike by the way.
Just went through the process of changing the stator and voltage regulator on my 1999 883 Sportster....and had to buy a impact gun so to remove the front nut as it would NOT break loose with a breaker bar....(no way).....feeding the stator wire through/under the cover plate on the other side was a freaking nightmare....I tried using a piece of string as he did in this video but even that was a pain in the buttocks. I wrapped electrical tape really tight around the wire so it wouldn't keep getting hung up as I was trying to fish it underneath the cover plate....(lost count on the number of times I said "oh lord....please let me get this wire through this tight area"......after about an hour....I finally managed to get the wire through. All in all... this wasn't to bad of a job to do myself....and I saved myself quite a bit of money.....(HD dealer wanted $671.00 in parts and labor to change a $64.00 stator).
Yes, feeding the wire is such a PITA even with the string. I wouldn't want to know how bad it is without it...
I got the complet Alt kit and it say take the exhaust off at the beginning. I see why now
Excellent video! Thank you for taking the time to make and post it. It was very informative.
Thank you good sir!! This video saved me a lot of money from having to go to a shop
thank you for a great presentation and attention to the small details.. @MCRepairForDummies is right- not all heroes wear capes.
looking at buying a sportster that I was told need a stator change....now I can verify this and make an informed decision.
Himla snygg presentation. Stort tack :)
Tack för den fina återkopplingen!
Excellent
Not all heroes wear capes.. thanks for saving my ass.. great video
Cable routing what a bitch. Felt like I had a beer with a buddy experience. Very clear instructions. Parts list. Nice overall video.
Yes....it was a real pain in the buttocks :)
excelente video y de gran ayuda, gracias desde Mexico,
Thanks, this video was very helpfull
You're my hero
very helpfull. thank you
Very helpful video. I am in the process of doing the same thing following this video. How critical is it to use an impact socket wrench? Thanks
Since you reassemble with red Loctite, this is not something you pull off easily. Now, the impact wrench did it smoothly enough, so one might try it out with some long braker bar, but I would most definitely spend some beer money on such a cheep noname brand impact wrench as the one used in this video that does the job in a jiffy.
Great fricking presentation/tutorial video. I like the way you talk that is so encouraging the rookies like me!
Btw, I was wondering what is the name of the "Song" that you played at the beginning of your video? It sounds GOOD!!!
Thanks a lot! And the song is just something I threw together quickly in Garageband on my iPhone in order to get self-created material that would keep me out of music copyright claims.
Very good
Very useful thank you
Gracias weee
Long way to go haha damn it
A bit of advice...on the derby cover bolts just use manual wrench not power as they are VERY easily damaged by the force in which you do and undo them, personal experience.
I'd say it is more important to use good bits (prio #1) and then common sense (prio #2). It's, as you can see in the video, no problems whatsoever to use powertools given they are used gently (the gently part goes for all tools, manual and powered). Furthermore, I usually use powertools when taking things apart and then manual tools (like the two differently sized torque wrenches used in the video) when I assemble.
The summarized bit of advice that would come out as more useful would rather be to pay attention to the derby cover bolts and handle them gently regardless of method since they are sort of delicate. IMO.
Dead right. I can feather my cordless impact slow enough to speed assembly and final torque using manual tools.
I have a question . What happens when I unscrew this large nut with a left-hand thread like with a right-hand thread?
I am not quite sure that I understand your question. A left-hand thread nut works just like a right-hand one, only that turning it clockwise (right) will loosen it and turning it anti-clockwise (left) will fasten it instead of the opposite.
SvartaMasken Thank you for your answer . I thought it was a normal thread and I think I broke something off :(
Did you even use chain sprocket lock hub nut so the chain don't move as much?
I just used the tools visible in the video.
😎
my clutch nut is spinning freely . how can i remove it?
Put it into gear
Why did the chain not turn when you took them off 6:44
That's one of many benefits of using an impact wrench! It turns so fast and quickly that it won't get around to spinning the large mass of the chain & friends. Go physics!

I would think the silicon would just melt. But anyway thank you for the video!
No, silicon is very resistant to heat.
I heard both sides of that. I guess next time I'll have to tear into the primary I'll get to see if it's still there or not. :-)
Clear RTV makes a good sealant for exhaust joints. I've been reusing exhaust seal rings on many brands since the 1980s with a light coat of clear silicone RTV. BTW "silicon" and "silicone" are not the same thing. Never "assume", because as G.I.s say, assumption is the mother of all fuckups. Sealant characteristics including melting temp are available on the manufacturers websites.
