If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.
That should be a 12 pole stator. The newer stators are an 18 pole type. 12 and 18 pole stators are not interchangeable. If you are looking for a replacement, your options are new oem (if available) , an aftermarket such as a 'ricks' stator, or a used one.
You might be able to replace the 12 pole with a 18 pole if you use the 18 pole style flywheel along with it. (if that's even possible!)

What's your intended purpose?

The one I have is dead and needs to be replaced. Was just researching options on something newer as a replacement. Don't want to put a used one from 77 back on it and be in the same boat again.
Did you actually do the checks across all 3 legs with the bike running? Not to be a smart azz, but some peole dont test and assume the thing is dead. If you did and it a gonner, i suggest Rics.
That sounds like a bit of logicial thinking on your part.
But, if you do decide to go with a used unit, PM me. I have one from a 79 GS850 which should be in good shape.

I did a no load test all legs made 20vac.

The output voltage will be A.C. not D.C. and should be 70~up volts A.C. @ 5,000 rpm's 'ish.

What would cause that? Bad connectors? Dead rectifier? Tested the rectifier and had continuity in both directions so I'll have to replace it as well and the regulator to while I'm at. The connectors for the recruiter are blackened so I'll have to replace them too. Any thing else I should look out for????

Hi Mr. Sinister Imaging,
You need to test your stator for AC volts on all three legs. You will find proper testing and replacement procedures in the links below, your "mega-welcome" package.
Yes, you can install a newer aftermarket 18 pole stator but you must also install the rotor from a 1980 or later motorcycle of similar displacement. The difference is that the older magnetic rotors have 4 magnets to go with the 12 pole stator. The newer rotors have 6 magnets to go with the 18 pole stators. (It's a three phase system.) There should be plenty on eBay. Or check the Parts Wanted and Parts For Sale sections of the forum. See the stator replacement guide on my website to get an idea of what's involved.
Anyway, let me dump a TON of information on you and share some GS lovin'.

Just put in electrosport stator and rr unit into my gs750 and yesterday had a look at old stator ,insulation looks fine and a bit of probing removed carbonized insulating tape and found the wires had been cut and joined about 3 inches from the stator and the two of the wires were broken and by the evidence shorting together hence in situ failure of impedence test.cut off the remaining bits of wire and lo and behold dead equal resistance of all legs and within spec.Even the diodes in the rr unit are ok.
Still not charging well though cleaned loom connections but still getting 2v drop over the ignition switch,by the time its fed back to fusebox its only just over 10v.Next mission dismantle the switch and clean out the spiders.
