HELP! HELP NEEDED ASAP IN ARKANSAS! FJR RIDER NEEDS HELP!

[smitty141]

Posting for my friend Mike Mehaffy. IBR vet and a all around great guy... Looks like his stator shit the bed in Clinton Arkansas. He is on the way to Moto GP in Texas with a riding buddy.

The million dollar question... Anyone close, or willing to overnight a spare/good used or working stator for a Gen 1 FJR?? He is calling dealers in the area, but a stator in stock would be slim. Also a gasket would be wonderful..

If anyone can help post up and call Mike @ 314-960-4434

PM or call me if you can not contact the number above

573-747-7565

Thanks everyone,

Smitty in Hooterville

Hey Smitty.

Have you tried PMing 'hppants', he has Mike's engine apart. https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php/topic/151853-what-happened-to-isabellas-engine/ and I think I saw a stator on the table?

Does the year matter? I can call local dealers here...otherwise, kamal might be onto something.

+1 on mikes, should be a gen1 since that's what he has. Eventually we will be sending Isabella parts all over the country.

Are you getting the stator from above or some other stator?

Are you at the Best Western in Clinton? Great base for riding.

Thanks everyone from me also. He got a new one from somewere out west, along with a new regulator. Overnight to Arkansas, a privite shop will install it tomorrow. The BIG Yamaha dealer didn't even know how to test the old one,,,

Thanks, Smitty

We want GP Pictures!!!!

I called mehaffydr last night and was happy to learn that he had a new part on the way. Frankly I was a little disappointed - shoot, he's only about 250 miles away from me an a day off to make a parts run (er.... cannonball run ride!!!!!) would have hit the spot.

No worries - all's well that end's well....
