dr600 stator question?

[devojunior]

I have got hold of a dr600 old thumper which is missing its stator and as its the 1st bike iv had a bottom end to put back together its all new to me soo.

behind the stator cover should i have a rotor/flywheel then the stator spins inside this which then has a pickup close by ?

does this sound right as theres loads of words cropping up.

flywheel/rotor

magneto/stator/windings

are they just differnt terms people use and do i have the basics right ?

Yeah there is an outer ring to the stator/magneto, the outer ring/flywheel generates the AC current which is then picked up by the pick ups.
Before re-fitting the stator these 3 timing marks need to be aligned which will be visable on the engine timing chain and cogs, notice the R and F locations.

To be pedantic the stator (stat-ic) is the bit of the generator that does not move, it consists of coils of wire (and so may get called windings/magneto) and is fixed to the engine. Then the rotor (rotates) near it and it that bit that carries the magnets, generally the rotor is also a heavy lump of metal that also acts as the bike's mechanical flywheel and is usually called such.

The ignition pickup on a bike of that age is probably* a separate thing again that sits very near to the rotor/flywheel. It's also usually the job of the rotor carry something (my guess would be an obvious pip on it's circumference somewhere) that will cause the ignition to fire at the right time as it passes very close to the pickup thus the need for correct alignment.

So coils of wire = magneto, coils, windings, stator
Thing that spins around = rotor, flywheel
Pickup = fixed thing that detects a certain point in the rotation of the rotor for the purposes of ignition timing

*Note that there is a small danger, depending on the type of ignition used, that the pickup is just one of the many coils that make up the stator, so may not appear as a separate part.

So it sounds like you may be missing your stator, rotor or perhaps both

its definatly the stator im missing and iv ordered a manual in english from ebay it seems to be an original.

hopefully my garage will be finished by the weekend so i can go through it all with the manual and see just whats missing i know theres a fault in the gear box which is why it was stripped.
