1997 sx 700

if i can find a new one cheap ,but at the moment i cannot afford to spend $300 for an one.Wish i could but i just dont have $$ right now so need to go with what i can afford.
 
BETHEVIPER had a listing in classified for a used stator. Where in NY are you. You could check out sleezebay I saw a few on there. Full Power Performance who is a sponsor on this site also has alot of used older yamaha engine parts. Thats where I got mine at. But its only a 25 min drive from my house so wanted to deal local if i could. LOts of options so good luck.
 
just bought one of viperking . so lets hope this will be the end of the problems and i can use this thing.This is my first ever snowmobile so would like to ride it soon and see if i like it or not!!!
 
got the stator today and will see if it fits and cures issues tomorrow. fingers crossed that the connectors match up as some say they wont :dunno:
will update tomorrow !
 
As long as it came out of a 600-700 pre 2000model yr you should be 10-4. Good luck. As said before that was the issue with mine runs like a champ now just need damn snow.
 
now we dont have much snow ,but i do have a running snowmobile!!!!!. yes the stator fixed it . People were right in saying that the square connector is different off a 00 model but it still connects ok just the clip doesnt snap tightly together.(black tape cured that . not ideal but it works). i still have old crappy gas and the belt is needing replacing soon but holy shizz it has some power. for a first ever snowmobile its feels crazy fast to me ;)!
Total cost for this is about $480 (includes buying it !) so right now i am happy happy happy..

thanks to all who posted and helped .

U been watching duck dynasty haven't u?
 
Glad it worked out for ya. Hopefully will snow and us ny'ers get some riding in without breakdowns. If its your first sled than yeah its a plenty fast machine for you. Dont worry you will get used to it fast and want more. Just use your head and dont get to cocky to quick cause thats when those things will bite you. I bought a brand new 97 700 back in 98. Was a leftover. Anyway i had a 570 exciter then a 94 600 twin, then got this tripple. My first ride in field with it and I was like holy crap what am I gonna do with all this power. Was pretty intimitated for first few rides. Didnt take long and ported ,reeds and all the cool things you can do to them. Should have never got rid of her. Left a impression cause I have another,and still lots of fun
 
I have similar issues with 98 700 Venture but replaced the stator with a new kimpex one and still have issues.....maybe I better check resistance on replacement stator?
