Hey again,
So I checked the charging and it seems fine. The battery measures around 12V engine off, a little higher with it on, and surges up to but not above a 14V when revving the engine, at which point the regulator kicks in.
I also checked for leakage by disconnecting the lead to the negative battery terminal and hooking the multimeter up in between, engine switch off. The indicator actually went below 0, which I guess means no leakage.
All fuses ok.
While I hadn't just charged the battery, the bike had been sitting for several days so I'm guessing the fact that it still measured 12V engine switch off at least nullsuggests that it's not a bad battery.
I guess I'm just going to ride it for a while and see what happens.
