The first place to start, if you suspect the regulator, is at the battery. Without the engine running there should be about 12.5 volts at the battery, with the engine running there should be 13.5+ volts at the battery. If you have the correct voltage at the battery the best thing is to start at the headlight plug and work backwards through the wiring. It could be a broken wire (been there) or connector pulled loose or even a bad ground. Heck, it could even be a bad headlight bulb. Using a volt/ohmmeter to check for voltage and continuity is about the only way to find an electrical problem.
