Okay, just replaced the R/R with a new one and omg it holds at 13.5 on idle and does not climb anymore. My head lights are still dim, now I need to test the stator..... but now I have an exhaust leak on the back on the exhaust, just ordered a new gasket......

Is your headlight supplied by the yellow? That would be independent of the charging voltage.

There's no yellow wire on the head lights plug/ white female prong, but on the male prong coming from the wire-harness, it has a yellow wire.

Yep the yellow is for your lights

Alley is correct so check the yellow for AC voltage at idle and with some RPM. You can do it hooked up because we want to see what is getting to the lights while regulated. What the stator is doing is somewhat academic, it's what is getting to the yellow past the regulator. Of course if the yellow is anemic then we need to test the stator. But ground one probe of your multi, find a bare spot on the yellow, and test for AC voltage. That could be the cause of your dim headlights. If you're getting decent voltage then it's down the line with the headlights themselves or a bad connection.

I would check the running voltage under normal conditions . The headlights in high beam could be dc when flash to pass is pressed .

Okay I got 11.00-10.00 on AC with the black grounded on the frame and the red into the yellow wire.

That's about right for the yellow, it tends to run a little low until you get a lot of RPMs up. If your lights are dim at low RPM and brighten up at speed, that's normal for a Chinese scooter. You can get around that by going to an 11 or 12 coil stator and switching to a DC system. The 11 coil has a red/black AC feed for the CDI so you can keep your AC CDI. The twelve coil has three yellows and a blue trigger but you have to use a DC CDI. With the 11 you can use a DC or AC CDI.
