My mates Cota 315 98 model keeps stalling when we are out. The bike starts ok and runs for say 15 minutes. Then for some reason stalls and will not start again. It will start if we leave it for say 1 hour but as you can imagine this is very annoying!
So he has had the stator cap off and found that the gasket had perished and a bit of crap was around the stator. He has now cleaned this up and resealed.
We are going to give it another go at the weekend but I recon a new stator may be in order.
What does everyone think?
Has anyone had a similar problem?
We will obviously give it a go first but I know electric probs can be a pig!

Sounds like the stator.My sherco had the same problem,it start ok then run for about 20mins then die.Anew stator cured the problem.Quite expensive though,about £130 i think.
Hope you get it sorted!

Thats what i have thought as i too had problems with my beta. I just wondered whether simply cleaning up the stator and replacing the gasket would solve the problem.
I would have thought once water/crap had go in there the stator was knackered?????
