The green plug is the power supply to the pump and the white plug is for the gauge... Was there any soldering involved in the re crimping?

None at all, I managed to feed the wire into the connection and bend the contacts over with the screwdriver. I have put 8000 trouble free miles on the bike since.The green plug is the power supply to the pump and the white plug is for the gauge... Was there any soldering involved in the re crimping?

You can do either the battery or the rectifier. I would opt for the rectifier and use the RED and BLACK. Ignore the white wires as those are straight from the stator windings.
Gather info in DC volts for idle and step up to 2000 and 3000, and then the problem area(s) >4000 RPMs.
Set meter to AC volts and repeat the same RPM ranges.

Hello,
I was able to get a multimeter and measure voltages across the red and black terminals of the rectifier. This is a summary of my results:
Multimeter in V DC
Idle (1100-1200rpm) 12.5 -13.8v
2k rpm: 14v
3k rpm: 17-18v
4k & > : 18v
Back to idle: 13.5-14v
Multimeter in v AC
From idle to 4k rpm < 0.009v AC after which it showed zero even when the resolution was set to 2v.
This is very strange. Most of the time electrical parts that handle high current are either 100% ok or completely failing. So this is either an application issue or a partial failure.
Its rectifying AC to DC which is good as you detected no AC output. However, the "regulator" is not clamping the voltage at 14v. In this case it *appears* the shunt regulator is blown open as the energy above 14v is not being dumped into the shunt as heat.
As for your HIDs many are spec'd at 24v so they may be unaffected by this....
Also as you get closer to the battery it will drop some voltage as its a load. Could you repeat DC test right at the battery? Also, does the CEL come on from a quick zing to 8k?
EDIT: [MENTION=2579]Motogiro[/MENTION] does this meet the criteria of shunt being cooked open?
