I use an RM Stator box on one 200x for over a year now and never had an issue. It had a tilted and crooked plug socket and kind of cheap looking overall in quality but it works great. I can't vouch for their Liqid R stuff, though. No experience there.

^ unplug it, the switch works on grounding out the system.

Kill the engine if it starts with blocking off the carb bell with a rag or pulling on the spark plug cap while wearing a glove,,,and you still might get a bit of a shock... be careful.

We use RM stator at work (Polaris dealership), and haven't really had any issues with them.
