I am going to do some tests on L7 with original Suzuki shunt RR vs the genuine Electrex series regulator, such as revs vs voltage to battery and heatsink temperature.

Yeah i know exactly what you mean, I bought my Electrex unit used from ebay but got ripped off with a dud unit. Having said that there are several of the used FH units from the likes of Yamaha Honda etc and all seem to be around the £40 mark, might take a punt again, if it turns out to be a good unit then it's worth doing the whole wire upgrade and relocate thing.
