It always seems to be the Earth pin that heats up and melts the connector block.
I now have a small Gammatronix LED on my front cowling that shows me the output from the battery. If this indicates less that 12V I can stop and check the reg connector.
So far no problems but if it did occur I would certainly do Bernards mod and move the Reg up under the headstock.
Hope this helps.
