Sounds less like the battery and more like the charging system. You can get the battery load tested at advanced auto on the free to rule it out. I suspect you have a short somewhere draining your battery or your charging system needs some tlc. I see the revving puts it to 14.2ish.

you need check this thread https://cbrforum.com/forum/f2-tech-93/regulator-rectifier-r-r-problem-solved-27739/

your R/R its bad and you need change it urgently because may fried your CDI or other thing.

When you start the bike and the idle are in 1000-1500 rpms your bike must have 12.8-13.2V and the maximum voltage was 15.5 volts at 5000 rpms or higher, but you have 17-18volts thats off limits.

so be careful and change the R/R, but first check the thread

Have read that thread now and also ordered a gsxr 1000 k2 unit from ebay. Will also test the stator with multimeter so I'll see thats everything is alright from there.

Your R/R should be limiting the charge your battery gets to around 14.5v @ 5,000rpm. Right now you're cooking your battery and it will probably smell unpleasant after a longer ride as battery acid boils over! Your stator is fine if it's providing a charge.
