First off. Hello everyone! New here. I acquired a 1984 Honda big red. Been having fun riding around. The problem. Ive been doing some testing on the electrical system and encountered a problem. When running my lights barely even come on if at all, and when i let off the gas and let it die right before it dies the lights come on nice and bright then turn off. I took a voltage reading of the stator while running and this was the results. https://youtu.be/sp_Ykkb-FSE

When the yellow wires coming from the stator are unhooked i am getting a pretty good voltage reading. When i plug them back into the voltage regulator the problem shows itself. I have tried swapping the voltage regulator out with no luck.
