Why my Motorcycle LOST ALL POWER & How we FIXED it!

- Thank goodness I was right in front of the shop and not 3 hours away when my Suzuki Hayabusa motorcycle lost all power. After testing the electrical system the bike’s problem was more extensive than we thought which caused us to call two of the best companies out there for help - Rick’s Motorsport Electrics and Full Spectrum Power for a stator, rectifier and battery. In this video we show you how we fixed the electrical system on this motorcycle and explain why the parts we use from Rick’s and Full Spectrum are far superior to OEM. Talented tuner and builder Jack Robinson from Drakside Performance helps us with the install and gets this Busa ready to burn tires again in no time. While we were at it we installed a sprocket from Rob Bush’s 190Hookup. Hit up these companies and mention this video.
It is GOOD to have friends to help you when your bike is down ! Glad to see you up and running Jack !
Amen. What is the worst / most expensive problem you have run into with your motorcycle?
I’m going through the same thing right now rebuilding my gen 2 after sitting for 3 years after a spill. And I diagnosed it and that’s my issue so I’m hittin Rick for electric. Love the vids !!
I had an 04 Daytona 955i and they are notorious for rectifier issues. Purchased an upgraded mosfet unit from Rick's and never had a problem. Until I blew up the engine that is haha! I'll definitely be purchasing one for the 02 Busa project I just picked up.
Nice to see you got your bike going again Jack . It sounds great again. Ride on brother.👍

@@cycledrag replaced the head w/valve train on a Triumph Explorer 1200 triple. Reason: #3 exhaust valve out of tolerance 🏍 Triumph covered the costs 👍
Stators and regulator rectifier interesting...glad you up graded those parts...bad stator wipes the lot out interesting...great post..
Thank you! What is the worst / most expensive problem you have run into with your motorcycle?
The rite man for the job , for sure! Glad ya got it working Jack. Pit Bull Bartram
What up Pit Bull? Did you enjoy Martin? What is the worst / most expensive problem you have run into with your motorcycle?
@@cycledrag hey Jack, had a great time in Martin. Went out first round. Still the best time. I met some real cool people (opponants and compitition). It was good to meet you too of course Jack. My most expensive one would have to be my sportsters 1st 1275 build. It ran good but after the 500 mi. It just was not rite. Lets just say it cost me ! We got it rite 2ed time around. I cant ever seem to get it rite the first time.
I put a Rick's VR on my Buell - HIGHLY recommend.

Brocks sounds really good 💯
I agree! What is the worst / most expensive problem you have run into with your motorcycle?
@@cycledrag 🤔probably when i totaled my 92 GSXR 1100 drag bike in my neighborhood 🤦 lol have a good one buddy 👍
OK going thru SAME thing now with R1. Came back from 120 mile ride, hot day @99 degrees. Bike was at 220 whole time. 2 miles LUCKILY from house same thing...sputtered, lights flashed, I was able to quickly get to side of road but all power dead. No gauge LEDs, no spark nothing. Pushed her home, charged battery....nothing, NEW battery from other bike...nada! So my question is would a failed stator or rectifer still cause no power even with a brand new battery hooked up?
Even with a full stator ring of burnt coils I've been able to at least power up the LED cluster before on other bikes but not this time. Thanks for the help. Bike is 2006 R1 47k miles. Replaced stator/ Rectifier 1500 miles ago.
Jack that bike is to new for you. Lol. Should have stayed on the oldschool.😂✌
I like both! What is the worst / most expensive problem you have run into with your motorcycle?
@@cycledrag my oldschool never breaks jack. It's what they call bulletproof...😂🤣
So a bad stator would cause no power at all? Or it cranks but no start? If we see spark plugs firing up that means stator and crankshaft is working?
CYCLEDRAG ROLLS ON .....AGAIN. GOOD ON YOU JACK...ONELOVE FROM WALES

I have been ordering Ricks motorsports electronics for roughly 10 years now at the shop I work at. You can’t beat their price if you fuck up on the order they are good about swapping it out. I’ve done it a time or two.
You the man Randy Orton. What is the worst / most expensive problem you have run into with your motorcycle?
CycleDrag My personal ride is an R1. I grenaded the clutch basket awhile back. Kinda odd thing to happen. If something bad is going to happen I prefer it to be mechanical instead of electronics. I feel your pain when it comes to fixing the sparking stuff.
CycleDrag What’s your thoughts on using Moto GP hole shot devices for drag racing?
Far too common problem for Suzuki. Same thing happened to my GSXR.
Pro tip - Hard wire the rectifier connection when you change it. The factory connectors SUCK and are a major cause of the problems.
That is a good tip! We also make a Hot Shot connector kit with 350 series terminals (larger) vs. the 250 series standard terminals if you want to be able to replace easier and/or aren't comfortable with soldering.
Good tip! What is the worst / most expensive problem you have run into with your motorcycle?
@@RicksElectrics Thanks a lot guys!
Is this something that should be done to a like motorcycle before failure?
Well it's hard to tell when it's going to happen. For teh majority of bikes, this will never happen. What is the worst / most expensive problem you have run into with your motorcycle?
I just ran into this problem yesterday on my 08 cbr 1000rr I hope it’s just stator and rectifier
Diag for most bikes ? I have lost power to my sv650, ordered new kill switch and starter switch, I’m going to check my stator next ,
Glad your back on the road Jack! 👍 What does your number plate mean”IAm70”?
Completely random believe it or not.But everyone behind me thinks I am 70. What is the worst / most expensive problem you have run into with your motorcycle?
Would it be my stater too? My bike did the same thing yours did lost all power and no lights are numbers on the dash
Mine did the same thing my 30a fuse is blowing out I think mine is the rectifier not sure if it's going to be to stay or two?? It it better to replace them both at the same time?? I have a 2001 Suzuki Hayabusa 1300 r
Man, I’m having issues with keeping my Kawasaki on. I need homies like this guy who’s know about bikes too. Anyone know of any sport bike groups?
How do you test to see if this issue is the stator and not some other issue?
Did you check to see if it was one that had the recall for the Rec/Reg?
Yes. Not for a 2014 unfortunately
I run a P.12XL Full Spectrum Battery and even had my rectifier replaced twice under the Suzuki recall for my 08 Busa probably between 2012 & 2014 & its been fine ever since. I even replaced my stator cover with an aftermarket Woodcraft cover. My stator looks very similar to the one shown in this video. Ironically I've had no charging or cranking problems before the recall and none after rectifier was replaced by the dealership. I'm guessing I either caught a potential problem before one arrived and avoided one after the replacement. I'm definitely gonna look into the aftermarket rectifier from this supplier especially based on the slim profile design and what it provides. However I'm surprised to know that the 2014 model isn't supported by Suzuki..🤔

@@cycledrag Id have to say replacing the fairing on the throttle side of the bike. I lowered my bike without replacing my kickstand at the same time. The bike slowly tipped over while idling and I wasn't able to save it from tipping over. Was barely able to save it from a hard impact fall and further damage.
Cool bike! All the best from Denmark
What Bike is more fun to you The Haybusa or your KZ1000 I prefer Older Sports Bike's
Jack, what's your best et on that bad 'busa?(1/4mi)
9.79 with a lot more word to do! at 200lbs and just 30 passes under my belt I was happy, but I need to improve. What is the worst / most expensive problem you have run into with your motorcycle?
Cape town . Busa all the way
What was the AC volts at idle and 5,000 RPM. ? Did you perform insulation breakdown test? There’s no way that brand is better then OEM. I’m a trained tech. I would never recommend that brand for that application. Only if you we’re getting rid of it.
I'll ask Jack. Over my head. Rick's came highly recommended.
Man i love that thing!!
What is the worst / most expensive problem you have run into with your motorcycle?
Ricks Stator AND rectifier, and a LiTH battery(after market) for my Hyosung (I know) that’s why I bought BOTH of them. Problem solved.
Welp, my turn.
I just broke down on the freeway
id say changing everything is no problem solved
It’s easier to do that when you’re not spending your own money then to diagnose an electronic problem especially if it’s intermittent.
What would you do?
That a beautiful busa. My 09 zx1400 acting crazy can't go over 4000 rpm no power stuttering. I took it to the beach last weekend an when I got there my. Bike start having no power. Give her throttle. Hesitant. Any suggestions. I found out part my problem. Bad battery my . It didn't break down. It was running so bad. I had to call my dad. To come get me o. The trailer. It was the first ride for this year. I'm really upset she doesn't run good had a busa run up on me wanna race with his girlfriend I told him not this time.
Now did Jack go riding after to hwy 74 or Flo' s Diner in Chino. Get some riding in Jack.....
whats your best time on it?
9.79. I need to do better.
@@cycledrag Not bad man. Lowered? SWB?

@@cycledrag Out of 70-odd(some very odd), motorcycles I`ve owned, being run off the road on my 1976 Factory Guzzi LeMans proddy racer at speed, was the most expensive `problem` I`ve encountered. Blowing up engines through thrashing various bikes, comes a close second, in spite of me being the mechanic :)
i don't think suzuki electrics are so good jack my regulator/rectifier failed the other week a friend who was a suzuki main dealer mechanic told me its a common problem
I'm so sorry. What is the worst / most expensive problem you have run into with your motorcycle?
Hi Jack your under 200 miles from your H2 dragbike

Oh yeah just take them stupid reflectors off the bike. If you’re going to get jammed up that reflectors not gonna help anything
lol
Probably regulator
Thanks I'll ask! What is the worst / most expensive problem you have run into with your motorcycle?

Well that's what needed done... What is the worst / most expensive problem you have run into with your motorcycle?
