Frequently Asked Questions

What's the advantage over a stock stator?

Higher heat resistance (600°F), better charging at idle, and upgraded plug terminals that won't swell or separate.

Will this fit my 1979 or 1989+ Big Twin?

This part is specific to 1981-1988 Big Twin models. Check your year before ordering — fitment does not extend beyond this range.

Does this prevent battery drain at a stop?

Yes — the improved low-speed output helps maintain charging even when the engine is idling, reducing slow battery discharge.

How long does a Cycle Electric stator last?

With lower operating temperatures and quality construction, these stators typically outlast stock units significantly.
