Actually, since replacing all turn signals and headlight, the gauge read a bit of 14 and pegs when the high hits a higher RPM, then falls back down to around 14.
Faulty regulator? This is a 15 SGS, but had all incandescent lighting.
thanks
 
I think that's going to be right. When I did full leds on my bike I noticed it was charging at higher voltage. But that's because leds don't draw any amps

While I'm certainly no electronics expert, I do know that a local friend of mine with a '15 Street Glide Special that had the voltage regulator go out on his bike within weeks of taking delivery of the bike. They replaced it under warranty and he hasn't had any issues since. Might be worth taking it in to the dealership to see what they have to say if it's a big concern for you.

Hope this helps!!
