Your stator is part of your alternator.
I'd worry about something being incorrectly plugged in on the new harness and having wiggled itself loose.
It seems like your bike was running on battery only for the last little bit.
I'd first suspect the connections at the rectifier, and then do a check on the stator... Bad rectifiers have been known to fry stators and vice-versa, but you don't need to look that far into it at this point...
Yes, the shop that reeplaced your harness tested the electrical system, so did you since you rode the bike for many miles since...
Something has wiggled loose and while it might be the magnets on your rotor, I'd look at the connectors on your wiring harness.
There's also a specific way to run the wiring harness to the tail of the bike; I think Suzuki had a recall about that. Someone else might be better able to elaborate, but it seems like the old way of routing them would cause them to short out on the frame or something. Maybe your shop routed your new harness the old way...
