I'm the third owner of a 2009 F650GS. In 2014, I took her into the dealer after she died on a trip back from Michigan to DC. They said I needed a new stator, which is pretty expensive because they make you buy the whole encasing and part. I've read on ADVRider, that there is a work-around however and I wanted to know if there's anyone on this forum that has successfully made this replacement and has a guide on how to do it.
I've never done any work on my bike itself, except taking the battery out to charge it. Is this something that I shouldn't do myself? If not, does anyone have any BMW motorcycle mechanics they can reference near Herndon, VA?
Really anxious to get riding again.
This is where I learned about the common issue - http://advrider.com/index.php?threads/a ... ty.706033/
