BTW KTM finally has the stators figured out on the '09+ Husabergs and the '11+ FI KTMs, 200 Watts of DC power, and they are reliable!
And I bet,not cheap! I would like 200 watts that worked properly though. I checked out the thread about the Electrosport stator,that one takes a little engineering to get going,then it can maybe die at a later point.
I guess the main thing I want in a bike is for it to keep working,especially out in the middle of the Nevada desert.
I dont want to be the guy getting towed in . Bling for bling's sake rarely gets you very far.

Different subject, but a friend just had the small sealed cam bearing frag in his 525,bearings went all through the engine,broken gear parts came out with the drain oil,supposed to have been a freshly redone engine.
Any thoughts on this? I can see how having 2 separate oil cavities would have saved him some money.
