You would have to buy the stator kit from Rick Stator, a tad on the exspensive side but it's the only kit I know of

I bought the Ricky Stator kit for my son's 2007 TRX90EX.
It is a great kit for what it's designed for. I bought the stator and the light kit. You get the stator, the new regulator, the lights, light covers,the mounting bracket, and the on/off switch.
Here are a few pointers for you.
I had to buy a whole new case cover and a new ricky stator because the directions don't say to use loctite. Well, I didn't. Guess what? It was about 2 weeks of riding and the stator came loose and just chewed everything up.
I called Ricky Stator and inquired. They said Honda doesn't use it so we don't use it. BS!!! USE IT. If you don't, guess where their next sale will come from? YOU!

The stator is only good enough for 2 lights and not bright ones. You will get about 40watts of lighting out of that new stator. Which is 20watts for each light. That's not much.

Go to Walmart and buy the same style lights for 20bucks. The RickyStator ones are REALLY nice. Aluminum housing. The bulb retainers are a beeeetch to remove out in the dirt. I didn't care for that. But it's the same cheap bulb.
OR, mount a single bulb light with a 40watt bulb. Like a stock ATV. Your choice.

The kit comes with a mounting bracket that works. No doubt. But it is so low that the light doesn't get out far enough. Make your own bracket and move it up by the handlebars like a regular ATV light.

The switch is EASY to accidentally turn on and off. If you have the lens covers on, you will melt them. So get a toggle switch and put it somewhere where a kid won't click it on by mistake. Put an LED on the dash as an indicator light.

The instructions are ok. Not very detailed. But it's not rocket science either. My problem is that there were wires in the same location as the new regulator connected, that had the same style connector. Be careful that you get the right wires. It will save you a LOT of time trying to figure out where you went wrong. That was MY bad. My son thought I was an idiot for two days.

Hope someone finds this information useful.
