Replacing a stator on a 1980 Suzuki GS1000?

Sorry, Firecracker...the early '80s GS line's most common fault is dead stators. Some owners had to replace them more than once. A puller is really the only special tool one needs. And, yes, a Haynes or Clymer manual should live in the same garage as the bike. I have both, as well as the factory manual, for my CB750F: I've found it useful to have more than one reference, because often one will have an error concerning a spec. such as the torque to be applied to a critical part. BTW, I don't wish to single out Suzuki regarding this fault: I replaced the stator on my Honda 1981 CB750F about 5 years ago, and the one on a CB360T 'way back when.
