The Krypt Keeper Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Usually check this plug once every couple years. I just checked it while the tail section was off and the plug shows the signs of failure in the making. My volt meter on the bike never showed any sign of fluctuations on my last ride so that is a good sign. Did a quick check of stator and R/R and both check out as well. Will need a new plug and pin connectors to install. Doubt honda sells these, anyone got a source to buy the 3 connector? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhawkxx Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 When you go to fix it, it would be helpful to snap a photo of your failing plug so others will know what to look for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Krypt Keeper Posted May 27, 2017 Author Share Posted May 27, 2017 Got a couple pics of what I found.. last time I checked the plug it looked brand new. Will end up removing about 2" or so of wire on the r/r side. All good, will have it fixed soon enough. Thanks for the link John, had been looking at some weatherproof ones from msd but cant find wire gauge size listed on amazon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizzy Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 I recently changed stator and still have old one including wires and terminal. I can cut wires off stator and mail them to you. wires and block in good shape Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had a mosfet R/r sitting on the shelf for over a year, looking for connectors that would let me keep the stator plug OEM for a " just in case" field swap if I had a failure. Going to order one today anyway. But I had to ask. Thanks for the link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

partsman Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Honda does have a kit for the plug,31105-ML8-305 . Originally an upgrade for GL1200's, but it's a 3 yellow wire connector set. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
