Charging System question/confusion

I did test, but didn't bother posting the new stator leg to ground on each of the 3 legs at 5K RPM was zero.

Alright looking at getting this guy, doesn't say if its series or shunt though... Hoping someone could weigh in... Also do you need the adapter kit? prob keep water/debris out
I am looking at the ESG015 12 pole stator for my '79. If anyone has a line on a cheaper ESG015 im all ears!

Pass on that R/R, it's not a 775.Alright looking at getting this guy, doesn't say if its series or shunt though... Hoping someone could weigh in... Also do you need the adapter kit? prob keep water/debris out
Here is one for $10 (plus shipping). Does not specifically say 775, but has all the other items that make me think it's OK.
If I needed another spare, I would not be mentioning this one to you.
If someone beats you to that one, here is the next one I would look for:

You can find ElectroSport stators on Amazon and Ebay for $80-85 USD. I don't know about shipping to Canada though...I am looking at the ESG015 12 pole stator for my '79. If anyone has a line on a cheaper ESG015 im all ears!

I notice one of the fake makers has caught on to the nubs on the heatsink fins of the genuine SH-775, and is making exact copies now.Dave

I belive some are glueing stainless or shiny plates to the bottom to make them look more realistic although the glue job is poor but on a picture that my not be easy to spot.The big guy up there rides a Suzuki (this I know)

If it's new and genuine, the sh-775 will be in $100+ range at polaris dealer.
Used genuine units will likely be dirty/ stained due to their location on the atv. They will fail the typical shunt r/r diode test - they won't appear to conduct current in either direction. Best bet is to get an A/C current clamp on meter and do comparison testing on output of a running bike. The sh-775 seems to "freeze" the output to about 2/3 of what a typical shunt unit will do.1981 gs650L

Thanks for that but i missed out on those, looking at this guy

Looks legit (from states) but contacted the seller to get pic of the actual PN.
It will get here just in time for the snow to fall!

I recently installed new Electrosport stators in two of our three bikes. I did not check my son's 1000 after the install, but the voltmeter looked better, so I presumed all was well. With my bike, the voltage ended up looking OK, but took more RPM to get it there. I checked output, it's ~75v leg-to-leg, but it also has ~37-38v leg-to-ground on all three legs. We just finished a week-long trip with no electrical problems, so 37v leg-to-ground might be acceptable?

Yeah my voltmeter was not looking too well... around 12.6V at battery at around 4000rpmI recently installed new Electrosport stators in two of our three bikes. I did not check my son's 1000 after the install, but the voltmeter looked better, so I presumed all was well. With my bike, the voltage ended up looking OK, but took more RPM to get it there.

Use automotive spades/dielectric grease and a couple solders..... Used single point ground on SH775. Fuses didn't look too bad. Scratching my head on this one.Comment

This issue has come up in the past where people think their charging system is sorta working but they get the leg to ground readings (more than 10 VAC).
Given the high reliability of the leg to ground test in diagnosing problems and my own analysis of how having an isolated stator in any way bleeding voltage to the ground being anything but bad, I would tend to discount those situations where someone thinks everything is A-OK with VAC measurements leg to ground.Comment
