I bought my 1200 used with 26K miles on it in 1995, in about 1997 with about 37K showing, stator went bad on one leg during a ride. Noticed that while voltage dropped in town idling at lights, etc, suddenly 10 miles out of town, volts still low on my SunPro DC-V meter I had installed, so I knew.
Got her home, found the three yellow wires already toasty and poorly soldered and heavily taped up, I separated wires and did stator testing each pair at 3K+ RPM with AC-V meter, one leg of three was dead.
I ordered new Honda Stator from Schroeders in NC, put it in next week myself, installed a new plug after carefully taking it apart and soldering each crimp, I check it often. I was thinking new life warranteed stator had a blue ring, but I forget and it's not important enough to go look. I also looked and saw where Reg/Rec plug looked toasty, so I used brass tubing, inserted wire ends, crimped and soldered and shrink wrapped those wires from stator bypassing the connector.
Sometime shortly afterwards, my main 30 amp fuse developed a crack across the narrow part and when hot, no make a connection as solenoid body is plastic with a higher rate of heat expansion (my theory), so I used a 30 amp glass tube & holder with 12 ga wires and ring terminals to bypass it, all connections crimped & soldered.
I also updated the plug at the solenoid with an updated HONDA kit.
All this in later '90s, and I used her regularly up into 2016, no more issues.
