This is weird, so I ordered a new stator that is the same 8 pole as the old, the new stator has a different 3 pin connector than the old. (Pictured below)

New connector new stator:

So since I was using the old wiring harness, I just cut the new stator 3 prong (2nd pic) and replaced it with the old stator 3 prong. I saw that the stator with the 2 quick connect plugs lit the cdi, but did not fire the spark plug (ignition coil is in good condition.)
This pic is the 2 quick connect plugs that is problematic.

Now the wire colors off the new & old stator is the EXACT same color - the only difference is the color from the cdi to wire harness of the bike.
All the wires are plugged in, and seem to be correct, the issue is the 3 pic I posted, the 2 quick connects - if I swap the wires, red/black to red/white & blue/white to red/white - the spark plug fires but not the cdi, but if I reverse them and put red/white to blue/white - the cdi fires but not the spark plug - both won't fire at the same time.
I later on removed the old stator 3 prong and replaced it with the new 3 prong in pic 2 thinking the new stator required the bigger prongs. And same result.
So what gives? Course I thought the red/black was power that went elsewhere not the stator, but the red/white on the 3 prong of the cdi was the only one that went to the stator. Maybe I got confused but the wiring is the same as it was before. But its almost like the 2 quick connects is grounding out the other.
