[QUOTE="quennc, post: 28754, member: 1386"] I've been reading alot on this site in referrence to the stator. But can't seem to find an explanation in a language that i can understand as to why these things die. So far what i'm understanding is if you draw to much power you're causing the stator to overheat which in time will just die. Also read on a few post about the 3 yellow wires. I've just purchased an 82 gl1100. And the guy i bought it from has no clue on whether or not the stator has ever been replaced and has no clue about the 3 yellow wires. He's replaced the startor and the coil and installed a new battery 2 years ago. But he's had no issues with the bike since. So i guess what i would really like to know is, should i be overly concerned about the stator, should i check these wires. I read on here that if i hook up my tester to the battery and the voltage is around 14.5 at 3000rpm that i shouldn't worry. Didn't really want to bring this subject up again but me and my wife just need a peace of mind on this. The bike does have 100300 km on it. But there are no over whelming amounts of lights on this bike. Mainly just what's required to allow the bike on the road. We were also thinking of replacing the standered bulbs with LED's. Any advise on this would be greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
