The stator is the wire coil that sits outside the fly-wheel. It's what generates
the AC current that powers the bike. It sends the current through the 3 yellow wires to the r/r.
It is mounted under the left-hand side cover on the engine.
The r/r does 2 things...
1 changes the AC from the stator to DC to the battery (that's the rectifier part).
2 regulates the output of the converted DC to stay within the limits
needed by the bikes electrical sub-systems (about 11.4 to 14.8 volts)
The reason I mention the stator, if it fails it can damage the r/r and/or vice-versa.
I recently went through the whole deal on my bike. I started out replacing just the r/r.
It went bad, again, and I ended up replacing both the stator and the r/r, to solve the problem I was having.

Also, I took the bike out for a spin last night, (colder weather) and the bike ran better but still poor throttle response. In the day though the bike gets hot pretty fast and stutters. Like almost to the (H) on the temp gauge. Going to run it this morning to see if anything has changed, temp wise.
I have my eye on a few 2003-2004 GSXR600/750 R/R's, will those be fine if needed, (will need lol)?

So I was riding today and went up and down the block, and it started out good running a little sluggish and some stuttering. I pushed it to about 75mph and then slowed down and when I came to a slower, some what stop, the bike just cut out pulled to the side of the road (bike lane) and it started right up. Put it in first and the bike just cut out. Let it sit for like a minute, started it back up and drove it home. Not good.
