belated follow up.
sorry for the delay on this problem.
decided to just ride the bike and if it blew up so be it.
rechecked the voltage today and it wouldnt charge past 14.8. problem solved?
the idle voltage has settled down to aronnd 14v.still high at idle but doing ok.
think i have a fuel...
for got to mention before my wifes episode i got the courage toride for a coke break just to see what would happen.
no blown fuses. no burned out bulbsand the battery did not get warm.

sorry for the delay in posting reg change but my wife has a heart condition and she had an episode that scared the
you know what out of us.
did change to the 81 reg and there was no difference still almost 15v. at all rpms.
hi windnwing
thanks for the input, i hav e actually been leaning that way.justhope its not the stator.
will install reg/rec from the 81. dont know if it any better but will try and see.
some people are using the newer type reg mosfetor something like that.it doesn't
send unused voltage to...
darn, spent 15 minutes composing post and lostit.
used 2 meters on vot check at batt terms
think i will blame it on my solder job and redo.then go from there.
hav to take my better half to football game tomorrow.
am sure you guys have better things to do on weekend.
later
forgot to mention it but i was questioning my meter so i bought a new one .guess what,same results
just under to just over 15v like 14.98 to 15.02 the tests were made at the battery posts.
i thought that the increase in voltage was due to soldering the 3 yellow stator wires.
maybe my solder job...
