New xtx fail

Hello, thanks for the ad. I’ve just bought my first bike which happens to be an xt660x, always like the look of them. I’ve been riding Vespas and lambrettas since I was 16. (Now 45&#128529 but the commute from witney to Oxford I do everyday is getting tiresome on my scoots with small fuel tank , large potholes and ever busy traffic. So...... on Sunday I take my 06 xtx out for a pre commute ride. Disaster after 4/5 miles.. red light comes on then after 1/4 mile the bike dies. Luckily near a pub🙂. So I have a cup of tea and have a think . Right... my better half brings out a new battery, bike fires into life and get home. I put a test on battery terminals on tick over ( and low revs)and it stays at 12v so it’s not charging🙁. Do test on regulator =seems fine. Must be stator????? Any help: advice would be appreciated........ cheers Barney.
