Had a call from Kev and the bike is back together and he's had her up to 150mph on the rolling road, at the redline.
The problem now seems to be that he's getting two traces on the readings, there seems to be an interference between the charging and ignition systems, with a higher than normal DC reading.
His advice is to replace the regulator/rectifier and see if that cures the problem, although he can't guarantee that it will, the problem is intermittent.
The readings from the alternator appear to be ok, so the problem is further up the charging chain.
