Regulator failure? Help needed!

During the last session of my TD yesterday, the SP started to cough and splutter a bit...and coincided with the rev guage dropping down and showing eratic behaviour.

Also...it seemed a little sluggish off the starter button, as if the battery was losing its charge.

As it was the last session, and I have since been unable to take a further look at the bike...I have no more information to share, but does this ring any bells and is it as I think related to the regulator.

The bike is a 1995 SP, but does have the newer version regulator (with the big metal back plate and heat fins on the reg itself).

So before I go out there and try and get to the bottom of things...where do I start.

Please keep in mind that my electrical knowledge is very limited...although I do own a small digital multi-meter!!

An idiots guide/step by step would be good!
