It sounds like you have one of the few issues of the regulator over charging. The regulator is sending everything to the battery instead of 13 to 15 volts. Take a multi meter and measure the current going to the battery at an idle. It should be in the area of 12 to 13 volts. Then take a measurement with the engine review at 5000 rpm. You should have something in the area of 13 to 15 volts. Anything above that and you'll need to replace the rectifier.
