Stator Dies.....while at the dealer for tire change

2.7 hrs does not seem all that bad if you factor in all that's involved. it is more than just R&R the stator to complete the job. Have them check the regulator as well. In 06 there was a recall on the regulator. A faulty diode in the regulator will forward bias voltage to the stator at all times and burn out the stator. leaving the key on and sulfated batteries etc is not going to damage the stator. It is very easy to check a 3 phase stator yourself if you have a Voltmeter.

I lost stators at 19,000, 32,000 and 52,000 miles. No cause, they just died.
I replaced the last one with a 3 Phase Stator kit by CompuFire, ( Cycle Electric makes one too,) and you CAN'T overwork that system. Heated clothing, extra lights, whatever.
Kit cost $400, ( stator and regulator,) and it's now 2 years and 49,000 miles old.
It's the new technology. Harley will offer one 'someday'...

I did c all another dealer in the area (Chesters HD in Mesa) and they quoted me about the same price. Labor was 2.7 hours as well which is directly from the "book". I contacted Hacienda HD in Scottsdale however they didn't bother to call me back with a quote.
