charging system
i blew my stator, replaced it, blew it the same day of replacement, put on new stator and regulator, did the testing and only pulling 13.8-14.2.
only other thing to replace in this is the rotor.
i have checked all connections, and the battery is fine.
Its on a 05' softail deluxe, shotgun shock and 2 speakers.
I installed and had everything disconnected and still below normal. I did notice that when i connected everything again, when the shotgun shock is turned on even with the throttle open that thing drains a ton on the system, i saw it dip below 12.5 a couple of times.
Advice?

The shotgun shock must draw a lot of power (Amps). You're probably just seeing a voltage drop due to the high current draw. Sounds like you have a bad connection somewhere in the system, or the stock harness isn't up to the additional current draw.

It can be that high, but 13.8V will fully charge the battery. The HD diagnostics manual says anything above 13.0V at 3,000 RPM is OK.
Also if Voltage exceeds 15.5V the regulator is bad.
