I need a stator!!!

[bdub416]

Hey guys, dubs here ... 1982 450gs (txz)

I'm wanting to replace my stator, after looking around online it appears that I am either going to pay an arm and a leg to get a new OEM one, or roughly $25 for one on ebay ... so my question is this:

Are stators compatible across models? (i.e., can I use any stator from any early 80s Suzuki gs, or do I need to find a stator specifically for an early 80s 450cc)???

As always, thanks so much for your help!

Look up your stator on Denniskirk and click the view all machines this item fits or something like that.

Thanks Chef ... I looked on DennisKirk, but I think that function is only available if they carry the desired part ... in this instance, that doesn't appear to be the case; looks like they only carry an r/r. I guess I will try to back into my answer by looking up the ones online and seeing if my 450 shows up on the list ... thanks for the tip.
