Are there any tricks to r&r the regulator?

Wow, this baby is tightly above the swingarm with allen head screws and those puppies are way hard to get to. Any cool suggestions would be appreciated (might be a good tool buying opportunity) and I will get the beer the next time you are in San Francisco. By the way, I am not sure that Honda used allens instead of hex heads so they might have been switched. Thanks.

Okay, the easiest way I found was to remove the rear brake light switch, remove the rear plastic fender, cut about 1/2 inch off the end off a 5mm allen wrench (these are hardened steel so a hack saw won't touch it -- I used a chop saw), get a 5mm 1/4 inch socket, insert the allen wrench part in there and the rest is obvious.
