Based on your screen name I thought you were from Rhode Island, Hawaii or Vancouver Island. Your English was good so I knew you were from North America or Aus.
You stated that you had no idea what it was when you saw it, so that tells me you are 30yrs old (late 20's or very early 30's).
You are tackling a stator so that tells me you work in the electrical, mechanical trade, possible welder. Possibly on construction, mining or sawmill areas.
Nice job on that fuel tank.
Two negative things. 1) Don't reuse those seat belts 2) That thing has no wrist restraints. It's an accident waiting to happen. I had a HUGE crash a few years ago in my oddy and broke my back (L1). The G forces were tremendous and words don't do it justice. Your not holding your arms in --- period.
You can get wrist restraints here:

I see you got a suspension seat for it. Your gona need it.
One other important point I want to make is that these machines have a deadly flaw. We sit low to the ground so there is no way to judge what is coming up. You must know the road BEFORE you go crazy. The quad and dirt bike riders are standing high and can see far down the road -- you and I can't.
You have been warned.
What is the compression of the
Engine ??
