    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...

    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.

Who wants Epoxylite 7001? (stator repair)

So, I'm planning to repair a stator and after much research decided to try to get EpoxyLite Insulation Spray 7001 in either white or green. The only thing is that it seems to only be available wholesale. The least expensive supplier I could find will sell a minimum of $75 (wholesale). Each can is $14 plus shipping. Who wants in?!

I think white is a better color, because if the insulation cracks or anything, it should be easier to locate faults. Thoughts? Ideas? Suggestions? BTW, i have a sales tax ID so I can get it wholesale.

The company I plan to buy from is EIS, Inc. Sales contact is 888-867-1009.

Nice Bike. I am looking at one tomorrow. Have you checked out the local motor winder or repair shop? In my experience they're pretty generous with "samples" as they use literally tonnes of it a year.
When I did mine last year they gave me the transformer wire, and suggest using slightly thinned(the acetone ratio is on their site) jbweld as the insulating(technically it's just to mechanically support/secure the windings--- they're already insulated) epoxy (that's what they use on their rush jobs that they don't have time to bake in the kiln)
I wouldn't worry too much about the colour if you do buy the spray 1 it's going to end up brown in the oil, 2. current leaks have a way of making their location known. 3. You should be testing it with a megohm meter for failure not a visual inspection.

so. No at $75 a can I am out!! :)

again. nice bike.
 
lol, BW :)

UPDATE on Epoxylite order: Even though it's $14 per can for green (white is actually $16), shipping plus hazmat fee comes to $48! That comes out to about $22 per can, or $132 for 6 cans after shipping once. Don't even want to add up shipping to a 3rd party.

So, bluewool, I guess you're suggestion is a better idea.
