Preach,... I think Progressive sells them...
danjray,... our stator ain't bad... it's about average...
Stators on bikes, run in hot oil... they only last so long...
There are bike models out there that eat stators every 5 to 7k miles... ours usually last 30 to 50k...
It's part of routine maintenance... same in cars... You must expect to replace batteries, tires, alternators, stators... along with belts, chains, shocks, fork seals, brake pads, bearings...
Nuttin' runs forever...
...
Stators are just a bigger PIA to replace than most things...
