What's harsh is a long battle to get the proper information out there. Things change and Jim certainly has proved it, first with the Series regulator and then updated stator and grounding information. I realize there was most likely vendor money tied up with the website that has probably become somewhat of a sticky situation, but even though at least one vendor has had some stellar stators, they are still peddling inferior outdated technology in the R/R department. Suzuki didn't even get it right. It's time to correct the record and move on. I can't blame Jim for being "SLIGHTLY" irritated.Last edited by OldVet66; 04-24-2015, 10:31 AM.http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum...ine=1440711157'78 GS1000E, Dyna-S ignition, Dyna Green Coils, K&N pods, Delkevic SS 4-1 exhaust, Dynojet Stage 3 jet kit, Russell SS Brake Lines, Progressive suspension, Compu-Fire series Regulator 55402 and Advmonster cree LED headlight conversion.

Thank you, I have tried that. I can't get the "technical" menu to open. I fact none of the files on that header with a down arrow will open for me?

It might seem harsh, but it is well deserved. I should clarify the label "shill" is in reference to the authors of the "stator pages" (about 5 pages of infomercial on Electrosport products). I don't recall exactly at the moment what the full content was , but do distinctly remember rereading the pages after posting "Stator Pages" and about the only thing useful, I remember beyond the troubleshooting flowchart was a discussion of dirty connections.
My issue is not with "other information", "lack of information" or even "wrong information". The issue in my mind with respect to the Stator Pages ( as maintained by the authors) is that they made no effort to improve them, but rather demonstrated clearly that their only intent was to support ElectroSport products under the guise of being unbiased members of the GSR. What else do you call someone that hocks a product in the manner done and much worse an inferior product as the best that one can buy, be called anything but a "shill".
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shill
A shill, also called a plant or a stooge, is a person who publicly helps a person or organization without disclosing that they have a close relationship with the person or organization.
"Shill" typically refers to someone who purposely gives onlookers the impression that they are an enthusiastic independent customer of a seller (or marketer of ideas) for whom they are secretly working.
Technical Info posts that are deemed to be important or popular will be placed here for easier access. If you feel a post should be moved from the Technical Info forum to here then PM the Administrator with your request.
Should we take a poll of how many people ran out and bought an Electrosport R/R after having read the "Stator Pages" and lived to regret it? Surely any of they will have fewer qualms about my choice of words.Last edited by posplayr; 04-24-2015, 03:28 PM.

When the Stator Pages was first published, was the shunt vs. series issue widely known? I get the idea that when Electrex started selling, going to another shunt R/R was the best option that was generally known about. I don't see how you can justify slamming them for selling it, unless it was actually inferior to the stock units which I doubt is true. If they knew at the time that it wasn't the best option then I could see it I guess, but did they? I'm also not seeing the dishonesty in relationship that you descry, I mean it was pretty plain that GSR endorsed the product, I thought. The info and product, as far as I can tell, was stator of the art at the time, and the only real issue you can legitimately take up is why it has taken so long to get it updated, or are you saying there is some kind of kick back continuing?"Men will never be free until Mark learns to do The Twist."
