Tommy is correct hold it a 5k rpm and see what you get it should be around 14.7. To test a stator check resistance between all yellow leads it should be consistent. Also check for continuity to ground there should be NONE. If either test fails replace the part. For the R/R you can only test the diodes in the rectifier portion. Hook the red lead from you meter to a yellow wire and the black to either the red or black wire on the R/R you should get continuity on one and none on the other. Test all yellow leads this way. Then flip your test leads and check in reverse direction your results should be opposite. If any ohm ratings are off by much then replace the R/R. That bike might also have a charging rotor and brushes. I hate these Honda charging systems as they are overly complex and when something fails you usually end up replacing all of the components. Because the bad parts fry the good ones.
