This video has a certain irony for me. I am in the UK and own a Honda CBF1OOO, which has a detuned fireblade engine. It is currently in for replacement of failed stator and rectifier. Apparently when one of them goes it caused the other to fail. Good video.
@@justaride1474 From what I can see, a motorbike battery is small and tries to keep the electrical system going. With all the anti pollution add ons enforced upon nore modern bikes combined with extra electronics; even HISS and EFI, it just seems to put extra strain on the electrics so they wear out. Maybe that has something to do with it? I am not sure but maybe.
B4 u buy make sure u do the voltage tests. Charge battery fire it up see if its giving voltage charge should be above 13volts showing charging. If it is then chk weak battery? Otherwise voktage drops means no charge then chk stator ir rectifyer. Illuminate b4 u spend.
The link came out to about $300 US dollars, so I bought em individually with the gasket and came out to about $185 US dollars, hopefully this works Thanks for the video
I blame the high temperatures demanded by modern emissions requirements. Having these stators operate in temperatures up to 120 degrees (C) is just too much. I changed out my fan switch on my Hornet from the stock 100 (C) unit to an 85 (C) unit. The highest oil temperature I´ve recorded is 92 (C) on a scorching day. I suggest everybody make the same change.
My f3 regulator went up in smoke. I’ve heard people with gsxrs having regulator rectifiers fry too. My guess is the high rpms of the engines is what cooks them
Usually accessories do it. Like HID’s etc. yet don’t realize if you want to add to the electrical system you need a more powerful stator and rectifier to handle it.
Anything else about the 919/fireblade to be aware of? There is a pristine on near me for a really good price. FYI, I raced an SV for a while. Mine was older (1st gen) but a great bike to race. I had raced GSXR750's for a while and got to old for them 😁. I remember a 15yo Nicky Hayden (RIP) riding around the outside of me in T1 at Road Atlanta regional club race like I was chained to a stump. 100% class act also as even at 15 he pulled in on the white flag lap as to not steal the glory from the club racers. He was a diff level even then and it was just memorizing to watch him.
Bro this video is a lifesaver! Ive just fitted my ebay ones too, here in the uk honda want just under £1000 and thats just for the parts without labour, im literally doing the job as i write this and cannot thread the stator wire threw the frame, pretty sure mine wasnt threaded through there to start with, is it bad if i thread it around the outside of the frame like how i found it? Im guessing mines been replaced before...
At 36k miles and 20 years old, mine has just been replaced from the the original ones it came with. So, not as terrible as people think to be fair. I'd be more worried over the gearbox ..... 1100 dollars..? You certainly had your pants pulled down there pal.... its like a 2 hour job , maximum.
@@justaride1474 personally I dont get how they can charge extortionate labour prices and still expect customers to come back. I removed my forks 2 years ago to do some fork seals, being lazy I rang a bike mechanic for a price, bearing in mind I had all parts including the oil, I had removed both legs and they wanted to charge for 5 hours labour just to replace the seals. It didn't even take that long to remove the forks , replace bushings and seals, oil, re assemble and re fit the forks myself, and im not a mechanic, im an engineer by trade. Absolute rip off merchants most bike mechanics. Once the forks were out, it wasn't even an hours work .🤷♂️
If you got over 20k on one stator. That is deff not a problem that’s normal. I don’t expect that thing cooked in hot oil to live a long life. Yours sure did though. Wow. Most folks don’t even keep a bike longer that 10,000 miles muchless 100,000km
Hi, I have a 1996 rrt SC33 UK model. 30,000 miles it's done. It's mint. I've owned it for 13 years I've recently changed the rectifier as it was getting very hot. I bought a usb / voltmeter display/ cigarette lighter thing that connects to the battery via a fuse. (It's very useful) I've housed in on the H frame and it sits perfectly. When not running it displays 12.4 volts and 5 amps. And when running it displays 14.4 volts and 5 amps. So all is well yes? Anyways... The bike runs beautifully but the stator area does get very hot even before the engins casings. Are 1996 fireblades problematic too? Should I get another ? Best regards. see my ch a. N n el perhaps?
Mate, I've got the 04 fireblade great bike, except this Stator problem, I'm on my 6th Stator, it will go again, and again and again 😡😡 crap design. Cheers for the video ride safe. 👍👍🤘🤘
I've got an 04 as well. 32k miles on it. Just replaced the stator and flywheel. I read online that honda recalled the stator and flywheel on the 04's and I couldn't tell if i had the original flywheel on the bike still so i figured i'd just play it safe. There was impressions on the inside of it from the stator pressing against it anyhow. I did check the rectifier and tested it and for now, it seems it is working as it should. Might've replaced that too had i watched this video first lol
@@harryw9598 yes mate I heard, and I've replaced the rectifier, stator, new battery factory one, etc, etc, you name it I've replaced it, even Honda did it last time, checked the wiring loome, the lot, and low and behold it's gone again two weeks ago, so this time its going, would never have another blade given. Cheers mate. 👍🤘
@@johnmac.6760 bummer thats too much bad luck. search the net for upgrade parts maybe? also read that guys clip out the connectors. and solder the wires. maybe install a voltmeter , and keep an eye on it.
Would it eventually just click like a bad starter solenoid? I’ve replaced battery,starter, the the solenoid and it still just clicks when I press the starter button it would turn over at first now just down to one simple click. I really hope this could be the problem
My CBR1000RR fire blade has recently decided to stop working …will crank but not fire . I’ve found it has no ground to the coil packs . Can anyone recommend how or what I need to do to get it back up and running ??
I went and go gas the other day and went to turn the bike on and had no power or nothing, put jumper cables on and it fire up as soon as the jumper cables was removed it would die
There's nothing wrong with the stator/regulator its the flywheel thats to blame. The magnets were too strong and too close to the stator and that burned them out especially at low revs. Put an upgraded flywheel on it as honda provided with the extended warranty and it wont happen again if not then its a temporary fix. If you bought the bike secondhand and arent sure if its been in for the upgrade check the VIN number there will be a punch mark above the first letter if its been done. Terrible engineering failure by honda and it should have been a recall not an extended 6yr warranty which basically said we'll fix it when you breakdown in the middle of nowhere but not until. i had to bump start mine a week after buying it second hand. Also the flywheel they ued to upgrade was the one the used from 06 bikes onwards. Get one from a breaker but make sure to check the part number is not the same as the one your taking off.

Could I ask u how long tha Ebay kit lasted u good video
@@alexjames3282 still going strong today.
Toilet watcher, that's GOLD
Anyone knows, ¿what is the cause of this failure and how to solve it? Thnaks
Not only the blade, the 600F Hornet as well, my problem exact same things. but I was only 20k from home home a holiday too. ahahh. Deep joy! NOT!

Hi,
I have a 1996 rrt SC33 UK model.
30,000 miles it's done.
It's mint.
I've owned it for 13 years
I've recently changed the rectifier as it was getting very hot.
I bought a usb / voltmeter display/ cigarette lighter thing that connects to the battery via a fuse. (It's very useful)
I've housed in on the H frame and it sits perfectly.
When not running it displays 12.4 volts and 5 amps.
And when running it displays 14.4 volts and 5 amps.
So all is well yes?
Anyways...
The bike runs beautifully but the stator area does get very hot even before the engins casings.
Are 1996 fireblades problematic too?
Should I get another ?
Best regards.
see my ch a. N n el perhaps?
The volts and amps seem to me to be good numbers. The heat coming off it is a bit weird. But you are in the uk! A left foot warmer maybe. 😂👍🏼
What was that in that tube

well didnt you hear replace the stator and the rectifier both.they work as a pair, i would get a new battery too.

Get a rectifier that is high quality

If it’s a Blade of this era (2005) it’d be wise I think. 👍🏼👍🏼
It’s an 06
Do you have to drain the oil before removing the crank cover? Thx
It would be ideal. But you could. Just have rag under it, you may loose a wee bit of oil. 👍🏼👍🏼
I need some help i have a FB 1997 and first it was running on 2 cylinders i changed coils and stator pluse coil and now no fire
I suggest you seek mechanical assistance. Sorry I can’t help you. 👍🏼

How are the ebay parts doing? I am looking into them over honda parts
No issues to report so far man. Go get the eBay’s ones. 👍🏼
@@justaride1474 I will give them a go. Cheers!
Iv replaced my stator and my rectifier so why my battery still going flat please help ots so frustrating
The battery will to be replaced as well. I’d say you have cooked the arse out of it when the last stator/rec went.
Folks use a gasket not Hondabond you can lightly dab a very thin coat on engine and cover but use a gasket.
I went and go gas the other day and went to turn the bike on and had no power or nothing, put jumper cables on and it fire up as soon as the jumper cables was removed it would die
I’d say this will be your fix bro. Stater and rectifier. 👍🏼
@@justaride1474 I did it after watching this! Thank you very much so happy I found this! Thanks again! Ride safe brother!
