An alternator is a self-contained, external unit that produces DC with electro-magnets. A stator is a stationary part of a rotary generating system and they typically use permanent magnets. Stators are also contained inside whatever is generating the power, like your sportster in this example.

Great work, Ed, looking forward to part 3! Tip for you - instead of oiling the piston rings just put a very light coating of wd40 on the bores - it helps them bed in properly and quickly when you fire it up! 👍🏻

@HeyNoah 4 месяца назад

@@Ed_the_BritWell, I mean I can't speak for anyone else, but I as a semi new rider, especially one just barely starting to work on my own bike, I have had a hard time finding detailed videos for things like how to properly remove a rear and front tire? Because when I do see videos like those, I always have tons of more questions that they never answer. How do I know how much tension to leave on the belt? What tool do I need to know that? Do I have to bleed the brakes before taking the off? Videos like these exist of basic maintenance things, but nobody does them that well in my opinion. I often still feel left with questions and still hesitant to do them to my bike because I don't feel confident that I know everything I need to yet haha. Especially when I will be riding it, you know. Not something I want to really screw up on. Anyway, that's my two sense! Cheers dude!

@FourIntoOne 4 месяца назад

Nice one! Looking good. Can't beat an EVO (even tho im an ironhead owner lol) Liking the snappy editing - concise and to the point, no endless filming of tedious obscure minutiae that some other channels use to pad content out.👍

Ive been considering chopping my 1200 xlh for a long time. Im a good fabricator and ive already done alot of the mods ypu have done on this bike. The only thing that is putting me off is the wiring harness. This looks so simple! I cant wait to see you wire it in!

@rezagero8560 3 месяца назад

Hey, man, i just hit the subs button. You don't add much naration, which not necessary for me, because we pretty much understand what are those sequences in this video all about, just actions, and thats why i subscribe to your channel. There are so many videos that contain too much explanations, compared on action scenes in them. Great video, simple editing, can't wait for the next episodes. And yes, it's going to be a great bike i believe

Hey man, great content and nice editing. Wish I could drop uni and my job and work as a motorcycle mechanic for a number of years only to learn the trade. I have a 2010 Honda VT 750S that I am trying to modify and make into a bobber and every small mod feels like a massive, undoable task. Wish you the best and if you ever make an online course, I'll definately join.

I was told once that it's called a stator because the voltage regulator was separate. Alternators have built in regulators, not sure if that is true though.

Good video and well filmed so you can easily see what you are building on the engine. Always cool to see that there are more people with the same interest as yourself. I have never seen that model torque wrench before, what is it called? Kind regards from Denmark...

@Ed_the_Brit 4 месяца назад

Thanks man I appreciate the support! It is called a digital torque converter (not to be mistaken for an automatic transmission torque converter). Mine is made by Quinn but there are several different makes.

@darrinlint4986 22 дня назад

You know your way around on that motor , I have one Queston, why do you get the head torqed down and then loosin it up and do it again , is that to ensure a good fit between the cylinder , head and block ? If I had the money I would just hire you to build me a bike your awesome..
