Yep, its the reg, same scenario with my 98. If the new battery drained in an hour, then its really RS. You can have the voltage checked to make sure, but....
Have it replaced with a non OEM reg. Go for either the GSX that a few have done or go heavy duty replacement, either way you won't have to worry about it again.
Also check the reg to make sure it has not burned out any wiring as it it went crispy.
