Has anyone machined a 8 slot stator/ignition rotor to match up to the later type? I just got a late rotor and was compairing it to the early rotor and you should be able to machine it to match.I know the tooth profile is different but there should be enough to get the correct shape. Would be cheaper. I have got a spare 8 slot, so when time permits will look into it.
Has anyone got a trashed busa crank they can cut the end of to use as a mandral? Leigh

You' going to need someone with the right equipment.I would think
the rotor would be hardened high carbon steel. the magneto rotor is.a file won't even leave a mark. Might need softening & re heat treating.Big bucks

Have heard of a couple been done now, no one mentioned any problems. Cant de or reheat treat, the magnets would be ratshit. When i do the swap i will mount the old one on a rotary table and give it a go in the mill. Leigh
