Hi. Well the stator was toast, so I made a good call replacing both. Now have 14.85v at the battery. Also found a breaking wire, one of the three...

Thanks again, SkiMad. I’m going to replace the stator and r/r. Seems the simplest path. The volts stay below 12.5 at higher revs...
Hi everyone, main fuse B was blown, replaced it and she’s running. I’m getting just under 12v with the engine running at the battery...

By the way... I think I already know the answer, but has anyone heard of this "unacknowledged by Honda" fault...?
