Success! New stator outputting 50VAC+ on all windings at ~4K RPM and reg/rec load test showing 13.5VDC+ with the new reg/rec at ~4K RPM. No load on the reg/rec giving 15.5VDC+, which is definitely an improvement over the stock reg/rec. One thing though, in case anyone else decides to swap out the reg/rec for a ZX6R reg/rec, the stock bolts are too short, so you'll need to get a longer bolt; I estimate that 20mm of length should be sufficient. And I say 'a' longer bolt as you'll only be able to mount it with one bolt as the hole separation is too large.

Edit: the length of the stock reg/rec screws is 20mm, so a single M6x25mm screw/bolt should be a sufficient replacement. Currently I have the reg/rec fastened with a cable tie, as I need to order some bolts.

Did your r/r run fine after no load test done on it? I am trying to figure out if I fried my neighbours r/r or was it broken to start with...

With the battery connected, the new reg/rec is giving me 13.5VDC+ at ~4k RPM. The old stock reg/rec was giving me 10VDC and dropping, but that was because of the stator coil. I'd do a no load test on the stator coil first to rule that out. If you're getting low output and the stator is good, then something is probably up with the reg/rec.
