Here are readings from an MR175 stator, with the MT125 wire color codes. The ignition winding reading should be identical to the MT125, the lighting winding reading is probably slightly higher:
Ignition winding (black/white wire to stator ground) 2.4 ohms (points open) Lighting winding (white/yellow wire to stator ground) 0.3 ohms (approx.)
If you get similar readings to these, all it really tells you is that the windings aren't broken. In my experience, the only reading that matters is the ignition winding voltage output when the motor is kicked over, which cannot be read accurately with most meters. You can try unplugging the stator cable, setting your meter to AC volts, connecting it between the black/white wire and ground, and kicking the bike over. Hopefully you'll get a reading of some kind, but whether or not that will result in an actual spark across the plug gap is anyone's guess; if you get NO reading, though, the stator ignition winding is bad.
