Checked the a/c voltage from the stator and it was below 50 volts so I'm changing the stator out with the other one I have. When I took the stator off there was a alot of oil inside the cover, should that be in there or could that be part of my problem?
Like I said earlier I did lay it down on that side a little over a week ago. When I stood it back up It wouldn't do nothing so I let it set there while I was checking on my buddy that went down too. After mine sat there for a while then it cranked right up with no problem.

well got the stator changed out and checked the voltages across the battery again and here are the results of the two:
ENGINE TEMP/RPM...........OTHER STATOR..............THIS STATOR
cold Idle 1100 to 1500------12.49 volts-------------12.36 volts
cold 2500 RPM-------------13.16 volts--------------12.98 volts
cold 5000 RPM-------------12.57 volts--------------14.20 volts
hot 1100 to 1500 RPM-----12.50 volts--------------12.26 volts
hot 2500 RPM-------------12.82 volts--------------12.45 volts
hot 5000 RPM-------------13.60 volts--------------13.25 volts
Not much difference between the two stators. I checked both for resistance they were the same checked for the a/c voltage coming out of each stator wire, the same (forgot to write them down but were all 3 consistent) So based on this information my charging system I would say is working properly, all I need to do is replace the R/R.
Anyone agree or disagree? opinions?

The nice thing about a Stator is that there is not much too it and it's easy to check with a meter. To test with a meter, you just measure ohms (resistance) across any 2 of the yellow wires that are in the connector that go to the R/R. The connector needs to be unplugged and the ingnition turned off. The proper value to read would be 0.1 - 1.0 Ohms. That is a very low reading, but remember that it's just a coil of wire. Make checks across all 3 combinations of the yellow wires. If any of them read outside of the specification, then you should replace it.
I'm currently using GSX/R regulators on both my F3's. The original on my F3 melted, and the other I just replaced as a precautionary measure.
