Default Another possible voltage regulator gone bad

Running around 30 moh. Dash lights go out, radio goes out, voltage gauge is pegged. Start to parts store for a fuse then everything starts working. Head home, does it again. Engine light comes on both times for a split second and goes out.
Codes, 10 of them, all of which is a high voltage problem. One says over 16 volt high voltage.
I'm thinking I got me another voltage regulator going out.
Bike runs great.
Anyone have this experience?
Was it the vr

Sound like you have it figured out, replace it before you cook the battery.

After long ordeal with my dealer it's ready.
They were trying to blame the normal thing, the PCV caused the problem.
The they tried to tell me it was the stator.
I went in the back and seen my mechanic that I prefer and he got it took care.
It was another bad Voltage like I told em.
I have a couple of guys there I trust and they always go to my aid when I ask.
Now to get some good weather to get some riding in.
They have a new service manger and I really like this guy. He knows about real life experiences.
Glad they got him
