AnswerI'm sorry I wish I could help you more with this.
My reccomendation would to be to find a parts bike, or new stator wiring harness,
and replace what ever is missing. I dont beleive in jimmy rigging or micky mouse wiring on a motorcycle.
I have purchased a complete wiring harness for my 1983 XV750MK Midnight Virago because of a simular issue. Wires had been cut, spliced together and parts had been removed.
Also I would look for a wiring schematic for your bike, that might help you also.
I think you should check all 3 stator wires with an OHM meter to the frame (ground)
I think you have a short somewhere. maybe the insulation is worn through and touching ground.
