So I have the 09 1125r with the crapped out stator..if/when I get it fixed are there any others issues I need to think about? I heard about wheel bearings but thats not a biggie....I love riding this bike but I used to own a Ducati Hailwood Replica (hence the login name) and I threw money at it hand over fist and it never went right. I dont want to do the same with this bike.....

Keep an eye on your coolant/oil levels. If your bike has the orange rear wheel bearings keep an eye on them, those are prone to go bad, I think the black ones are revised. Head bearings, 50/50 some go bad, mine did at 8k.
If you have the stock pipe you might look at getting some exhaust turnouts, because the exhaust coats everything including your rear break caliper..
Congrats on your new toy!
