Five Five is correct, Wild Steed Worx has direct replacements and an upgrade replacement as well.

I checked out the 3 phase system. I see it says 25 amps at idle and 40 at 2800rpm. Is 25 at idle really charging the system? Also, does anyone ride around at 2800 rpm? Im a bit green on the electrical side.
I heard our factory systems start charging at 2000. I have a really loud pipe and normally wont ride over 2000 through the neighborhood or town. Ive found I sometimes dont have enough oomph to start my bike on short trips to the store. Is there a system that charges at a lower rpm or can something like that be adjusted in any way?

Call Big Dog see if they can help you :roll: :roll:
Why keep feeding the dog that keeps eating you up more than what you care to spend on it. Sell the pup, fix it or move on. You are not the only one with issues, we all have them and take care of them. If you can't stand the heat get the fuck out of the kitchen.

Loud pipes or not, running at 2000 RPMs in any gear other than first - and maybe 2nd - is lugging these motors.

Carlos,
I thought the forum was a place to help each other and use the experiences of others to keep our Big Dog’s running and performing at their highest level. I think the ultimate goal for each of us is to ride. I admit I’ve had problems with my bike like the rest of us have. Like most of you I get frustrated at times. Carlos’ attack on my post was uncalled for. The military teaches respect and discipline…which Carlos obviously lacks. Makes one wonder what his MOS was? I have always had the utmost respect for anyone who has serve their country, but like the saying goes you have to give respect to get respect. Carlos needs to learn that the title of Marine in his signature means that he should conduct himself as such and not spew the vomit that comes to his mind. We all need to think about the titles that we put after our names…and what those titles mean to each of us and to the public.
Be safe, enjoy your ride.

Dingo,
Thank you for your input. I heard that before. I was just trying to be respectful to my neighbors for the short time that Im in my subdivision.
So, theres no way to to adjust the charging start rpm? I know its not like theres a switch, but somehow it must be hard coded into the system.

I just put that CompuFire 3 phase system on my ride this week. Its actually a smart system. Will charge your battery when low and once it reads it as charged it trickles from there. Its a very well built system, leaps and bounds over our stock stuff. If you have the money I would look into that. like mentioned earlier Wild Steed Worx has all the stuff you need.
Well said brother. This guy has written all trash about our beloved little jewels, Carlos was just the one with guts enough to say it out loud.Call Big Dog see if they can help you :roll: :roll:

As for the stator, call Curtis and you will be in the best hands possible.
Ok, we've got a recommendation from spadesluck on the 3-phase and recommendations on the OEM
from Kurtis, so no more mudslinging, ok!?

It is a forum where we help each other out and I will continue to do just that, but I will not stand there with my finger up my ass while you slander the founder of this fine Motorcycle and you can take that to the bank. You say I have no right to attack you post, I didn't I just casually mentioned that BDM might be able to help you. I forget that the part department was not conducting business at the moment.
Once a Marine always a Marine. The Title Marine is something I earned and something you will never have (UUURRRAAA) I love my beloved Corps , I served Honorably for 21.5 years with out ever being reprimanded. During my career I had the opportunity to serve as both a recruiter and Drill Instructor and had the pleasure of selecting as well as training some of the finest young man in this county to give them the Title of United States Marines. The Title Marine is something all Marines have to earn. My MOS was Infantry 0311, 0369 and 9999 First Sgt. I served two tour in Vietnam as a Infantry man, got wounded during my first tour 1967 1968 and went back for a second tour 1970 -1971. (Don't know if you were born yet or not) As a Marine I learned that you have to have the discipline to take prisoners of war, even though you want to kill them all. You don't kick someone in the balls when he is down (which in so many words is what you were doing when cutting down Mr. Coleman the way you did)
You came on here trashing BDM which got my attention because my bike is my passion. You said Coleman got what he deserved. Well, I think he put out the best product on two wheels today, some bikes had and still have issues and others didn't. Just because yours did and you had spent a ton of money trying to keep it running is not Coleman's fault. I can almost assure you that I have spent more money on spare parts then what you have spent for repairs for your Dog. Businesses sometime fail and BDM did. However, Mr. Coleman did what he had to do with his attempts to save his business including putting up his Trust Fund as collateral. I admire the guy for what he did to keep BDM going for as long as he did. I don't believe in kicking a man in the balls when his down. I don't think you had the right to say what you did, (freedom of speech or not). In his defense and as a proud Retired UNITED STATES MARINE had the ball to tell you where to stick you comments and I stand behind what I said. UUUUUURRRRRAAAAAA Get Some
And by the way I don't need your respect for having served this Great Powerful Nation. Just count your blessing because FREEDOM is not free for those of us who have fought for it Freedom has a meaning
Have a great day and ride safe,
Carlos

You're over thinking this. They state that their system puts out 25 amps at idle and 40 amps at 2800 rpm, above that you probably get very little increase in current due to losses. They don't state the rpm at which you are charging your battery because it's impossible to know, depends on many things. Most systems drain the battery at idle, then begin to charge at some rpm where the current supplied by the system surpasses the demand. In the case of the three phase system I'm sure it's charging at a lot less than 2800 rpm, and probably less than the stock system.

You also have to remember it takes 20+ minutes of run time just to recharge what was needed to crank the bike.

Just in case anyone was wondering.
Any Big Dog shouldn’t be using more than about 15 amps while running with the headlight, blinker, and brakes on. And if you have a newer Dog with the LED blinkers, even less. The single biggest draw is the head light and it should only use about 6 amps.
25 amps at idle is plenty (unless you got a 1000 watt stereo amp going full blast).
The voltage regulator also regulates the “rate of charge” (amps) and only charges as many amps as the battery needs, so it is only charging 40 amps at 2800 rpms if your battery needs it. It works just like a 110 volt battery charger, if the battery is weak or dead, it charges a lot at first then slows (or lowers the rate of charge) as the battery gets closer to full charge.
Yes.

I have never seen or heard of one.

Bearman,
Thank you for education. Thats all I was after.
Not to pick at an obviously open wound. But couldnt the last statement about the multimeter be taken as negative? I just take it and other comments as fact.
But thanks again for the info.
