Check the voltage at the battery while it's running. You may find that it's too high. If so, your regulator/rectifier is bad...and yes, the new one might still be bad. Or it might not be wired correctly. Even though they plug in, the wires might have to be moved around in the new plug to match the ATV wiring. Look to see if the reg/rec wire colors match the ATV wiring, i.e. red to red, black to black ect.
