Replacing a stator on a 1980 Suzuki GS1000?

How is this done. I am somewhat mechanically inclined, and have tools. I've had Harley's in the past and I know a stator on them is a pain having to take off the primary and all that. I'm thinking about buying this Suzuki but just wondering how big of a job I'd be getting into. The guy selling the bike says it's really not that invasive. Is that true? I've priced the stator online already and I can get one off eBay for $110. Just thinkin about picking the bike up to have as a beater, if its not going to be too much of a headache. Anyone out there done this? Any directions I can follow?

Thanks for any info.
