My money would be on voltage regulator.
Mine did the same.

Had the same problem on my Dyane. Changed the voltage regulator and the problem went away

Thanks all, it is the original vr. I checked the output today and the charge was varying from 12.9 to 14.8 so it looks like i'll be buying a new solid state one very soon.
