I have a 99 gsxr w 750. the wiring at the stator plug was getting so hot it melted the plug. ive changed the maine wiring harness, stator and the rectifier but the wiring is still getting hot. what am i not thinking of?
Do you have HID's headlights on your bike? If you do this is the most common reason that the plug is burning out.
Just a suggestion but your grounds are ok
My 96 GSXR was doing this too. I found I had oil leaking into the stator case. This had "washed" the insulation off the windings (I think) causing it to short out. It shorts worst when it is hot. Now when I disconnect the generator while running it runs great. Reconnect, and a huge blue spark arcs across the plug. This causes a huge current flow at this plug (back and forth). I haven't gotten all my parts yet to try out my diag. Check under your stator cover, or just continuity test it in the bike (OHMs meter).

YES I HAD A SAME PROBLEM I ALREADY CHANGE THE HARNESS WIRE BUT THE WIRING FROM RECTIFIER STILL OVERHEATING
YES, My 99 gsx-r has this same problem, the plastic pulg has meted it look to be mainly one wire that was geting really hot. I think it runs form the generator to the voltage regulater . my bike do's not run now. Please help. I need to ride!!!!
when rectifier is unpluged bike runs better and keeps correct idle. I notice rectifier wire were getting very hot and plug is melting.
