Petrol gauge
#2
does this even happen when the bike is standing still??

as strange as it sounds you might want to start at the battery with a multimeter and see what the voltage across the battery reads as it is running and gets reved
think of it this way - if your regulator is goosed it could be firing too much power into the electrical system at higher revs and that extra power going through the variable resistor in your fuel guage could be pushing through more power and making your guage rise higher up
running with everything off (lights heated grips etc) you should have a reading of  14.** volts @5000rpm
- it is unlikely but it is certainly possible and worth checking as it can cause more issues further down the line

after that i can only think of a dodgy earth somewhere in the circuit (unplug and clean connections)
