Test the voltage coming from the generator at the plug with the bike running, just a small rev should give you 13v plus, if not it's the stator of the rotor.

Will give that a go shortly then

Stupid question but do I start the bike then unplug the stator from the rectifier? Or will it start without it connected?

Oh forgot to mention, from the generator you'll get AC not DC volts and at idle around 14v if it's good, as you rev it will increase with the revs, 2k =20v, 3k, 30v etc etc up to around 70v ish from memory if it's good. 

I think (from memory but I could be wrong) you should be able to get at the wires through the back of the plug that goes into the rectifier.

I've been testing it using the ohms setting (resistance) as thats what it said in the service book? And ive tried to get the prongs into the back of the plug but can't do it without damaging the wires
