How do I test the stator on a vmax 700xt, there are to sets of wires coming from the stator, one has 3 wires to the plug and the other has 6. When I look through the little slot/hole where the stator is i can see rust, so that means I will have to take it apart and clean the contacts?

Alright thanks alot for the specs, I will give it a shot and see what I come up with, I cleaned the contacts where the stator is, not sure what there called? But anyway the sled seems to run alot better now, but I havent gotten to take it out for a good ride to know forsure.

Well I took the sled out for a ride and it ran great then on the way home it ran like shit, the thing would bog down and didnt have much power and it would get to 60 km.h and would really bog and the tors is disconnected. I tested the stator but its only like 30*F in the shop, and the ohms were about 20 lower then they should be then when I came back I tested when the engine was hot and the white green to white red was 241 ohms, and brown wire to black.red was 520 ohms and brown red to black was 99.7 ohms, so im not sure what to check anymore.
