Kawasaki Vulcan VN750 stator replacement without removing the engine

I apologize to everyone.....Youtube prevents me from replying to anybody for some reason.

Suppliers for this project are listed at the bottom of this text. When viewing this video on my XP pc computer, the names of the suppliers are shown on the video but don't show up when I view the video on my Samsung S5 cell phone. Youtube needs to work on that also.

Update added on 4-15-2018:

The stator I put in for this video lasted only 3,000 miles before it failed. I replaced it again from the same supplier but this time I replaced the voltage regulator with a new oem part and I remounted it out in the air near the rear tire. There are youtube videos on how to do this.

That stator also failed after another 3,020 miles. This time I purchased a new oem stator ($460). I've now put about 1,000 miles on this new oem stator and all is well so far.

I also replaced both ignition/pulser coils (oem) at that time because the wires were brittle and cracked from years of hot oil spray.

I believe the stators fail because of heat. With this mod I'm able to change out the stator in about an hour. Without this mod I had to remove the engine from the frame. I've done this twice on my previous bike, a 1999 VN750. The quickest I was able to do this was 16 hours.

I also fixed a pesky oil drip I thought was coming from the gasket I made for under the stator cover. I ended up using ultraviolet oil dye to find the source of the leak. It was coming from the top of the case where the ignition/pulser coil wires exit.

I live in Illinois and usually don't ride if the air temperature is above 90 degrees.

Replacing the stator (which failed at 20,400 miles) in my 2004 Kawasaki Vulcan VN750 motorcycle, without removing the engine from the frame.

Previous to this bike, I owned a 1999 VN750 and the original stator failed after 28,500 miles. I replaced it by pulling the engine from the frame and used an new aftermarket stator. That stator failed after only another 12,000 miles. I don't remember from whom I bought that stator. I replaced that one by pulling the engine also.
