I recently had suspected stator issues which were confirmed when I took it out to find on of the coils burnt. Sent it to get rewound and got it back today but there's no block connector on the end they just put female spade connectors on it. Trouble is I dunno where to get a connector from and secondly even if I just hardwire them up how can I tell which wire is which, they're all yellow or doesn't it matter I assume it does matter though?
It doesn't matter which goes to which, that's why they are all yellow.

Did think that, I promise I'm not completely stupid lol just thought I'd double check.
Where can I buy a block connector for the stator? Annoyingly the company that rewound the stator left the 3 wires lose with a female spade connector on the ends. I was thinking of just connecting them up and using heat shrink to secure it but doubt it'll be sufficient.
connect them up & wrap in black insulation tape?
Think someone made one, rubber block that is. Snapey?
You could solder the wires and heat shrink, I would shrink the three individual wires and the put one larger over them. Bought a multi coloured kit from Lidl was cheap and is very handy. Check the wire first as some of the hard silver wire is hard to tin (solder).

They left that bit on there lol would have been mega annoyed if not. It's the plastic disconnector block/plug thing they didn't put on they just left the 3 wires seperated with a female spade connector on each. I was thinking of just plugging them into the existing male block connector that's on the reg/rec side and then wrapping it in electrical tap and then heat shrinking it to keep crap out and to stop vibrations causing them to disconnect. Thought Ideally wouldn't mind getting a block connector from somewhere and doing it properly not sure where to get one from though.
It looks to be a crap rewind too. Not sure if it's a good or bad thing or doesn't matter but there's no resin on the coils, coils look quite messy and then while not an issue as such they didn't put a new block connector on the end of it. I doubt it'll last long. Shame new stators are £300+ else would get one and second hand parts are quite difficult to come by for the GSX as most are well looked after and very rarely seen at motorcycle breakers.
This lot seem to always be suggested on other forums as being able to match & supply any multiplug etc etc
