Obligatory: I'm new here, I've searched everything I could find and and found anything similar.
Hello out there!! I'm a new to this forum and new motorccle owner in general. Many thanks to all who have posted on this forum, I've learned a ton from all of you. I've been lurking around here for a year or so, decided to join out of necessity. My '14 wr250r 1800 miles has picked up a GREMLIN and I need some help/guidance/counseling/psychiatry.
My bike will not run...
Took her for a spin for the third time in a week, stopped and got gas. 15 minutes later, pulled up to a stop sign and dead. Restart and ride 5 minutes. Parked. Start, ride 2 minutes bad stutter and lurch, next stop dead. Barely made it home after stop and waits/revving the bike to not die.
Pulled the battery, it's no longer with us. Popped in the new battery and she fires right up. 2 minutes of idle and dies. Restarting gets progressively worse. Anytime she is cold it starts, runs, and revs normal for about a minute and then the same thing.
Things tested or changed:
Battery
Gas
Spark plugs(old one had some discoloration, no buildup)
Fuel pump primes audibly
Fuel system maintains 35+ PSI even after the bike dies
Plug has spark
Coil pack resistance is within spec
No visible vacuum leaks
Battery charges to 14v while running
Thought it could be stator, but the voltage increase is throwing me off
Stator resistance came back high .4-.6 at 200 on multimeter, spec is around .125-.2
Pulled crank case, stator is discolored on a few lobes, but no visible melting.
Is it possible that the stator could be bad and still provide the increase in voltage to 14v while running.
Thanks to anyone who can help
