    Stator wires

    The leads off the stator on my 85 GS750EF(Canadian) are white with green stripe,light green and dark green.All the ones on the others (have 3 83 parts bikes) are all yellow.By the wiring diagrams that's what they should be.Do I have a aftermarket stator?

    In my experience the factory stators usually have some combination of white/red, white/green, yellow, or ? colored wired. Hard to say for sure what they should be with any certainty.

      I've never seen an aftermarket stator with differently colored wires -- they're usually all white or yellow. And later model OEM stators have all yellow wires.

      So, it appears you most likely have an OEM stator.

        Was just wondering.Seemed funny all three of the 83's had yellow wires.The 83 manual I downloaded from BassCliffs site says they are yellow to.Just gets me thinking,not always a good thing.

          I was just into mine when I installed my Compufire regulator. The stator wires are white/green, white/blue and yellow on my '78.

            As a side note to this I ended up connecting the stator wire directly to the R/R

            Saved 3 feet of unnecessary wire and got rid of the bullet connectors.Taped it up after to make it look neater.
