Is it just me, or does that remind anyone else of "Johnny 5" from Short Circuit?

Yes it is true you are not the only one that saw that movie! And not to offend this guy but I have the 90 watt stator and it will not run to lights at a good level, did you try it with one first? is it alot brighter? I would bet it will be burning out a staor before long. =4

Yes, it looks like Johnny 5! I was kinda going for that look. Actually, there isn't much to chose from when you want to spend under $20 for two lights.

I think the homemade stator will be able to handle the two lights with ease, it puts out 66v and about 13v at idle. I don't have a regulator yet, I tried to use my GSXR 1000 regulator, but couldn't figure out how to use it. I need to order a cheap regulator, I think they are like $15 form the place that makes the stators for dirt bikes, can't remember the name of the site.

The link posted by fab5fiddy is the link I used.

Yeah, I know. I have ridden a few xtreme 107's and for $1700 it's not a bad deal. Although, for me, the bike is kinda crappy. Getting them to run sometimes is tricky, the engine is some cheap chinese knock off. I just think that if your gonna do something, do it right. You are right, the parts are pricey but it will make a great mini-road race bike when I am done. I also have a YZ80 mini road racer, it's a two-stroke, with disc brakes, inverted forks and 6 speed tranny and it cost me $1900. Just to get the xr50 to compete will cost me around $5k. Oh well, everyone has to have there vices.

Sweet.

You will need a regulator to regulate the power with your homemade or purchased stator. Parts Unlimited part, 12v Voltpack by Moose. You can order one from any motorcycle dealer. $14

The wire you buy will have enought to do 2 or 3 stators, cost $13 shipped.

Project is supper simple.

Thanks again to however wrote up the how to wire your own stator!!!!
