ok i am going up load some pics today. Unfortunatly the wire it broke off of is now just a small stub that is all most hidding inside the wire coil so i doint think i can solder it back on. I think after i post the pics it will help describe my problum better.
I have been hooking up a 12v battery so i doint have to keep pulling lol arm feels better

I have never seen a stator like that. This is a really an oddball engine. Instead of using semiconductor rectifiers to convert AC to DC they are using a mechanical rectifier with brushes and comutator. Amazing! The stopped using this type of charging system in cars in the early to mid 1960's.
It is really strange that they use 50 year old technology for charging the battery, and then they use a DC powered CDI which is a much newer technology.
So with the battery hooked up do you get 12 volts to the CDI? Do you get spark?
wow strange no when i hook up the 12v i get no power and no spark it spins the motor if i jump the silioid but get no power anywhere. any idea on what i should do next besides buy other one lol.
thanks Eric
You need to get 12 volt power to the CDI. That comes through the main fuse (always near the battery compartment) and then through the ignition switch.
To get the start button to work you have to have 12 volts through the ignition and then also have the brake on (which closes a switch and provides 12 volts to the brake light). The "brake on" 12 volts usually goes to one side of the solenoid actuating coil, the start button grounds the other side of the solenoid actuating coil.
the only fuse on it is on a white wire comming from the staror thing and going to the voltage regulator I think thats what it is, but no fuse by the battery. this is the weardist thing i have worked on lol.
Thanks Eric
