I have an 1984 Gpz250 who's stator has crapped out and need the stator rewound. If anyone could help that would be great.

I am also interested in this. I may have a need for some rewinding (once I get the bloody flywheel off)

I've done them in the past, by hand and in the lathe on lowest speed backgear. But it's a pain, and never very professional. If there was someone offering a service it would be good.

sAsALEX does them just for fun - winds them carefully by hand while watching Bruce Lee movies.He charges 39 cents per hour - so it'll cost you several hundred dollars.....

And i do it twice! once with practice wire then once with the real wire!

and at 39 cents an hour that would of been a pay increase from me middy's wage!

You gotta pay for quality - but I'd shop around,an Asian or Iranian would do it much cheaper,Kiwi's are fuckin rip off artists.

I thought it was 5,977 turns - are you sure you counted right? You better pull it off again and recount those turns,you could really stuff something up y'know....

Cost me $255 to get mine done, was sent away from a shop so that may have added to the price.

Idians are the worst as far as rip offs are. Every indian Ive delt with when buying from / getting somthing from tried to rip me off. Good thing about them though is that there pretty obvious that there con artists....
