Well, the most expensive but complete method of guessing is to replace both the stator and the regulator, then you will be good to go...

I am also now experiencing battery issues, even though I also had a faulty regulator. I'm pretty sure the previous owner of my bike, just kept driving and charging the battery. My battery looks almost brand new, but it won't hold a correct charge.
