good morning chaps,before i splash out some hard earned,is there still issues with the bgm v3 stator plate and the af lightened flywheel,mine has a washer between the taper boss and the ali flywheel,i think for more clearance on the pickup.

I have the BGM v2 with AF flywheel. No problems. The trigger marks on the flywheel were close but not correct. I'd think the v3 can't be that much diffrent.

I have a v3 with a medium weight AF flywheel and it works ok. But as Grumpy225 says you need to set your timing up from scratch.

The instructions in the V3 box are still the same as previous versions, re pick up clearance.

Just fitted a V3 dc stator with an AF mid-weight flywheel. Other than filing the slots out there were no issues.

Issues aren't with mid weight ones, just the AF light flywheel, it's a completely different flywheel.

What were the issues exactly?

I have a mysterious random misfire with this combo that scares the living daylights out of me in the outside lane!

By the sounds of it the OP has an "AF Light Flywheel," as Corrado says. Over the years, there have been many posts on several scooter forums about these. Here is just one that I found:

Lots of folk love them. Mine was a nightmare (it wasn't on a bgm stator though). Essentially, it broke up every time at 6100 revs. It was one of the newer ones with the spacer too. AF took it back and claimed it worked fine on Ben's scoot.
