Your tach problem is probably related with your charging problem. When you checked you stator for AC output you said it had the ladder effect like Hoople said. Did you also check each side of it for a ground and continuity across the pins?Ground and continuity test are done with the bike OFF. Neither side should be grounded,there should be a small ohm reading across the pins for the stator. Your manual should tell you the ohms for the test across stator. I have seen them test ok as far as AC output,sometimes lower AC, but be grounded and not charge properly,intermittently.You said you had a new battery but I would get it charged and load tested anyway.
