Looking for an early 80's GS1100 G Suzuki - 2 Valve - STATOR
** Never Mind...FOUND ONE.....

I can only assume that after your battery was going dead, and the charging system test (while running at Bulldogs's ...I'm a witness) you have ruled out the regulator/rectifier. While the GS Suzuki's from that era were notorious for frying stators, I hope you have eliminated the reg/rec first.
I sold Mike Beswick a 1981 GS1100 with a freshly rewound and baked stator. He bought the bike for parts and maybe that is part he never used. The stator had less than a season of riding on it before the bike was "retired". Give Mike a call.
Peace & Grease, Dennis

After the Charging System Output Test Failed unfortunately at BullDog's, I was able to Recharge the battery...disconnected the headlight, and ride back to the Barn.

Performed a No-Load Alternator Test as per the Book on the Stator - The AC Voltmeter showed no where near the 75 volts needed on each test connection for a Pass

If you are not getting the voltage, then yes, your stator is likely fried. Have you visually inspected it? The last one I had that went (same GS1100 I referred to above) it actually looked and smelled burnt.
