Get yourself a meter. There is 2 typical tests on a stator. One is the I.B. test ( Insulation break down.) Your testing to see if the coating on the wires has burnt off and is allowing the stator to touch the case. Set your meter in ohms. ( the horseshoe ) Unplug the stator from the regulator. Put your lead in one hole of the plug and the other lead in the other. With the key off you should get some sort of number. i.e. .2 .02.3 etc. If you are not then the stator wire is broken. Next is to take one lead out and run it to a case bolt. Do you have numbers? If you do then the stator wire is grounding out on the case. All of these symptoms require a new stator. Now put your meter in VAC or the double lines with the squiggly line in it. Put one lead in each hole. Start the bike . Every 1000 rpm you should be getting around 25 VAC. at 2000 you should be putting out 50 VAC and @ 3K 75 VAC. Now you have an older bike so the numbers usually aren't that high. If you are getting 16 at 1k and so on up the register then you are doing ok. It's your regulator that's bad not the stator.
