Those outdated shunt regulators can do that, they draw full power from stator coils all the time and 'shunt' any unwanted power through heatsink, cooking the stator and the RR. Best cure is to get a 'series' regulator ( Electrex do them ) and reduce the power drawn from stator to just what the electrics need at that time - and the Electrex RR851 series one on my AL7 runs 30 degrees C cooler than the original Mosfet Shindengan shunt one ( 40 deg C instead of over 70 deg).
