Just start again, putting the relevant info in one post. Do the quick test stuff and report your results step by step. Mention your current location and a member might be nearby
here's that link again

checked the stator with volt/ohm meter. have zero coming from it.i disconnected it from rectifier/voltage regulator. thinking stator is out or wire broke. maybe when I replace cover gasket.it got pinched or cut..Possible???

ok 12.5 key off, 12.8 running at idle. does not increase when rpm's go up...either rectifier or stator

possibly you deleted your first post.

zero volts AC, meter on AC...?
stator disconnected...?
with engine running...?
between each combination of two wires...?
Reason I ask is even a badly toasted stator will usally show some voltage on at least one set of wires.
And what do you find relative to your other problem of no headlight nor any instrument lights...?

Previously you said...
"ok 12.5 key off, 12.8 running at idle. does not increase when rpm's go up...either rectifier or stator ":
the 5.2 volt stuff makes little sense stator lead to stator lead, since you were getting 12.8 "running at idle" ( some output)- test your meter on AC house outlet.1981 gs650L

Originally posted by mandu57volt meter says 120 volts coming from house
so the meter is right,disregrade the 12.8
I am getting 5.2 from stator.http://img633.imageshack.us/img633/811/douMvs.jpg

It's a long way to North Dakota from Florida- get this sucker fixed! A new stator can be had from Caltric for $60- I'm using used ebay ones, but I live dangerously . Try to get hold of a 30 year old Shindengen R/R -millions put on Hondas and Kawasakis so junk yards will have them and they seem to be indestructible.(BUT they are no longer the best choice for this size/type charging system)1981 gs650L
