Title: Lighting Stator?
Post by: alward25 on February 19, 2010, 01:42:18 PM
I just wanted to see how many KX 500 owners would be buy a E-Line style 200w lighting stator if it were to be made available.
The more response the better.

If you could make it not suck ass, I would buy one.

By not sucking ass.....What would that entail? More feedback please!!!

I've always wanted one so plan on me,,,,as long as it doesn't do what BDI said.

ill take one if it includes user programmable digital ignition (think laptop). With a standard k5 base curve

and most important it must meet BDI's spec

I think that we can all assume that if we go through the effort of making a lighting stator that it not "sucking ass" will be a top priority. With that said, it would not have anything to do with the ignition. It will be like the Eline but with better electronics. Separate from the ignition on the outside of the flywheel.

This would be 3-phase AC output?

If you can make it so it clears the KX500AF pipe Id buy one.

Make it fit behind the stock flywheel and include a charging circuit and harness for a battery.

All it has to do is run an HID light and charge a battery to not suck. I don't think makeing that fit behind the stock flywheel is asking to much. You don't even need 200 watt to do that. I bet it will be even cheaper to produce then some E-line style crap.

I'm in  for one if someone could do it for a reasonable cost.

Who are you? and who are you affiliated with that puts you in a position to make something like this happen?, if you don't mind me asking.

Things that sucked about E-line coil. The unit as a whole was very heavy. it also added a ton of weight to the cranke. It took up to much room on the bike getting in the way of the pipe and shifter. If the puck was machined to a tight enough tolerance to have good output at idle the puck would contact the coil at high rpm and cause the coil to fail. I split cases trued cranks to super low tolerances but none of that fixed the problem. I even made shims for the puck but the only thing that stopped the problem was to turn the puck down smaller. This yielded pore low rpm performance. E-lines customer service also sucked but that has nothing to do with coil design or performance just very irritating when you are struggling with someones poorly designed extreamly expensive product.

We are developing one and wanted some input. Thanks for all the response

I'd gladly buy a 200 watt setup.
Of course I would like one that installs in seconds and is really cheap  :-D
That being said I would gladly pay a decent amount for one that has good directions, is reliable, and preferably fits in the stock cover, but a after market cover would be acceptable if it's not too bulky.

We already have one available that fits under the stock cover,It only puts out 100 watts of power but thats plenty to run HID. I have had 200 watt systems with dual halogen lights. My single 8" HID with 100 watt coil out performs any lighting system I have ever owned by leaps and bounds. It puts out the equivalent of 200 watts of halogen with a super bright white light that is very much like sun light. It does this at idle and only draws about 40 watts of power once it is fired up. comparing halogen to HID is like comparing an old 8 track to an mp3 player. You simply don't need 200 watts of power anymore.
