Thanks, guys. The voltage regulator is one thing I've never changed, so that's a good point. The dimmer switch has been, but I've had my doubts as to whether I've got it wired correctly (I've got a brighter light pointing at the road when it's dim, but the lights look dimmer to me when they're on high beam), so that's doable. I rebuilt the generator a couple of years ago, but now that i think of it i haven't oiled it in quite a while. Thanks again for these suggestion, guys. I'll try to get out there today and knock out this list, although it's pretty nasty out there right now. And Happy New Year to you all, too!
