Rectifier Regulator


I went out on the 748 on Sunday morning for a quick blast before the Moto GP. After about 30 miles the bike spluttered to a halt and when I tried to restart it the battery was dead. I called out the RAC and they were there in less than 15mins. Man checked battery and confirmed it was dead. Then he phoned his friend (another RAC chap who owns a 748) he told him exactly what to check and the verdict was the alternator is OK but the regulator is dead. Advise was to get a later (post 2001) Mine is a 1998 bike.
Question is are they all interchangeable? and if I just order a new one will it not be to the new spec? surly they don't still make naff ones. Oh and anyone know what they cost?
