Didn't Want Ricky to Feel Alone

Was on a Muscular Dystrophy charity run a couple weeks ago when the engine light pops on. Voltage is dropping, engine light on and off.
Pull out of formation and decide to head to the house, about 60 miles away.
Beulah got me home, she was pushing between 9-11 volts all the way. The voltage kept rising and falling. I shut everything off but the headlamp and got her to the garage. It was never sputtering or faltering, I'm assuming she ran home using up the battery. When I got her parked I let it simmer down for a few and then tried a restart, dead as a doornail, couple of clicks and that was it.
Where do I start? Voltage regulator or stator?
Work is busy and I don't have a lot of time to wrench right now. I'm also being cheap and looking to check what I can 1st.

2003 Twin Cam, Stage one with a tune. PCIII from Fuel Moto.
Suggestions and instructions appreciated.
