Introducing our newest heavy-duty flywheel rotor for
Kawasaki 400 & 500 cc Motorcycles.
Anyone who
rides or repairs a Kawasaki 400 or 500cc Motorcycle is probably
familiar with the flywheel problems common to these models. Most of
these bikes will have at least one flywheel failure in their lifetime.
Low-quality epoxy was used on OEM flywheels to secure the magnets to
the rotor body. Over time and many heat cycles, the epoxy fails
allowing the magnets to come loose and contact the stator, potentially
causing catastrophic damage.
For years, service shops &
dealerships have offered low-cost repairs for Kawasaki flywheels. This
sounds like a great idea at first, but there are some serious issues!
The common repair is using Marine Blue Epoxy to reattach the
loose original magnets or to install new ones. Epoxy fixes do repair
flywheels in short term if they are done correctly. However, this kind
of repair can easily cause immediate problems and impact long term
reliability of your ATV.
A Heavy Duty Flywheel to the
rescue!
New RMSTATOR&trade heavy-duty flywheel
rotor for Kawasaki Motorcycles is a well-priced solution to problems
with the OEM flywheel, and an excellent alternative to all the
mechanical troubles you can encounter with a repair.
Features:
-
Built to OEM size
- Fits precisely in your ride: install it and forget it.
-
Improved epoxy - Uses high-temperature epoxy
that is stronger than OEM, eliminating the possibility of magnet
detachment.
-
High-grade steel capping -
Prevents harsh additives in motor oil from degrading
the epoxy attaching the magnets. Though extremely unlikely, if a
magnet did ever come loose, it would remain in the sleeve preventing
contact with the stator.
-
Precise balancing -
Eliminates crankshaft vibrations for longer engine
longevity.
-
Shop with confidence - All
products are tested.
Don't waste time with temporary
solutions, and start fixing your ride like a pro!
Why
cheap repairs won't work?
Quick stronger epoxy fixes
do repair flywheels in short term. It might however impair long term
performance and reliability of your ride.
-
Remaining OEM magnets: Original magnets remaining
can still come loose at any time.
-
Magnet
alignment: The alignment of magnets around the flywheel is
critical for proper stator operation. Even very fine misalignment will
reduce stator efficiency significantly.
-
Magnet
spacing: Excessive epoxy or incorrect magnet spacing around
the flywheel can easily affect the flywheel balance. This can cause
stator contact or even crankshaft damage.
-
Incorrect
replacement magnets: The magnetic field strength of new
magnets MUST match the originals. Stator failure can occur quickly
with stronger magnets and stator output can be decreased significantly
using weaker magnets.
-
Wrong epoxy
properties: Epoxy that is not rated to permanently handle
high temperatures and oil immersion can quickly cause a serious
failure.
-
Oil contamination: Wrong epoxy for
the application can also contaminate the crankcase oil, damaging the
motor.
All these reasons make us strongly recommend that
you replace your broken flywheel with our new heavy-duty flywheel.

Note: Before attempting to
start your Kawasaki adjusting the air gap is necessary. Rotate the
flywheel so the raised node is lined up with the pick up/pulser coil
and adjust as close as possible but no less than 0.010".
Please Note:
- All electrical components must
be fitted by a qualified technician.
- Before fitting electrical
components ensure the root cause of the original failure has been
addressed.
- The absence of either of points 1 or 2 above, will void
any warranty.
