I don't think this will help but I once had a rectifier give up on a 750 Suzuki. The system would only charge at high RPM. This is the way it was explained to me by a tech who fixed it. The low end/circuit was shot. Sounds like your's is doing the opposite. Maybe the high end of the rectifier is not working.

Thanks.
Yep, the battery posts are clean and connected well.
And, like you said, every time I've seen a voltage regulator or rectifier go bad it only worked at very high RPM. I guess I'm just lucky.
Seems like everything, and everyone, keeps going back to the headlight for the 'no power' problem.
That will be the next thing I check. Might not have time tomorrow, or even the next day, but will get to it as soon as I can.
I guess I should add some things I didn't before. All fuses were checked, all connections (not counting inside the headlight bucket) were checked.
Kickstand switch was checked.
