Default Strange charging issue

Bike is a 2005 FLHTCSE2. When the bike is parked and running it shows only battery voltage on the dash gauge and a digital volt meter on the battery no matter what the RPM 12.2- 12.6 volts. As soon as the bike is moving the dash gauge will rise to 14-14.5 volts. Haven't put a meter on while moving but pretty sure it would match the dash gauge. Never had a dead battery. First battery lasted 8 years and still tested good when I replaced it. Current battery tested today 103% of CCA. Doesn't seem right but the bike gives me no trouble at all. Any insights?
