    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Electrosport is OK. Lots of members here have used their replacements.

The other outfit you are thinking of is Electrex in the U.K.. They have the same product as Electrosport and do a lot of export business. You could order from the one that has the best export deal.
 
I bought their stator, and im very happy with it.. except the wire lengths were a bit off.

Since he is in NZ and it will be an overseas order for him regardless, I would be inclined to order from Electrex in GB. My understanding is that Electrosport bought the business and marketing rights for the US and subsquently use their own suppliers. Electrex GB is still the parent company and not affiliated with their US counterpart. I think the quality control with the Brit company is still excellent. The US based one appears (at least to me) questionable.

Since the Electrosport takeover, I have changed to using Ricks.

The charging system is the weak link in the GS. IMHO Electrosport is the best on the market. I am real happy with mine. I did also buy their regulator but did not install it as I am using my super heavy duty, homebrew design with great success (I just wanted a working commercial reg for reference).
Seems like the Electrex stator has a thicker winding which gives a lower open circuit output voltage at the coils (40V) but can deliver a few more amps which is a useful thing.
 
Thanks for the info guys, much appreciated. The Stator and the R/R were both severely Nuked. I put an order in to Electrosport via the internet and they never sent me any sort of confirmation or anything. After 4 days I rang them and they didn't seem to have any record of the order even after the website quoted an order number and all. The product may be good but the seller is a bit disorganized. I cancelled the order and decided to go my own way. I picked up a second hand stator from a local guy for the cost of a few beers, he reckoned it came out of a honda 4 wheel thingy or something like that. It fitted. I found a R/R off a wrecked GN250 and with a bit of mucking around I have grafted them all into my old friend. With a new battery she is now happily churning out 14.5 volts.
Success\\:D/ .
