just wanted to say hi from Saskatchewan Canada

I am about to put 55w fog lights on my 85 Aspencade is this going to cause a problem with the stator as I have heard that they are not very reliable

Welcome to the forum from Pennsylvania.

Total up your accessories & see what kind of draw you have on the bike now would be my suggestion. Then take watts divided by voltage & that will be the amp draw. Welcome to the site & hope info helps. When in doubt ere on the side of caution as William said.

It does sound thirsty for a 1200. Mine always got 55+ Cdn mpg when not pulling the Tinymite Hilton. Likely a carb issue due to the age, check your plugs for over-rich signs. Oh yeah, welcome from Ab.

Siitman welcome to GWOF from B.C. About the stator, the plug connections coming out of the stator should be soldered,its an electrical weak point that corrodes causing problems.
Radar if your weather is still nice in Ab I'm definitly living on the wrong side of the rockies LOL but my guess is you have a foot of snow and -10 C
