You say you have a red w black coming from the stator, but it isn't a part of the wiring harness. But when I look at your picture 2 of 15 in your garage you show a red w black that clearly plugs into another wire. Is that wire not part of the wiring harness? If it doesn't go into the wiring harness then where does it go? I'm confused . What should happen is that wire should go into the harness and reappear at the CDI. If this is true then your CDI is AC powered. Please verify that I'm not out in left field. Your red w black wire at the stator does connect up to the same color wire and does go into the wiring harness, right?

you are correct the red wire goes to the 2 wire plug on the cdi wiring harness so can i run an ac powered cdi without a battery and not damage anything else on the bike

Since you quad is AC powered you can safely run it without a battery. But aren't you having trouble shutting it off? In other words your kill switches aren't working. I would suggest that you need to fix this because you really do need the ability to shut the quad in a hurry if there is an emergency. SO are you still having problems shutting down the quad?
