Dangerously high. The bikes electrical stuff is not designed to take that much voltage.

I like OEM regulators, but you can run whatever you want.

I’ve just removed my old reg/rec and tested the diodes before my new one arrives and they all come up correct!! Does this mean it’s ok and not causing the overcharge?

Those are correct numbers. No more overcharging.
