Battery Died???
So when i got home today everything was fine. Then i decided to turn it on again and it worked but i stalled. After that when i tried to turn it back on again it didn't ignite and all there was is clicking.
After trying 2 jump start, it worked and i let it sit there for a while.
After i turn it on and tried it turn it back on again it wouldn't work.
This time there's no clicking, no lights, the meter didn't flush up.
Car battery fried?

Re: Battery Died??? (Senbonzakura)
the r/r is associated with recharging your battery, if it fries all electrical for the bike comes directly from the battery and it won't recharge at all. Your symptoms sound like what happens when the battery loses its charge. there's a tutorial somewhere to check your r/r though easiest way is to take a multimeter to your battery after it's charged up fully. Turn the bike on and measure the voltage across the batter terminals. If the charging system is working right it should be about 14.5V at about 4k rpm. if it isn't then you know the r/r or stator is fried. More then likely the r/r is the culprit

I had my rectifier regulator replaced a couple months after I bought my RR in '03. I know one person and have read of others having the same issue. Is it still under warranty?

Nah, warrenty is over its been pass a year. When i drove home i thought the thing has charged. But when i tried to turn it on again it won't turn and it made the "clicking noise" After an hour or so i tried it again later on but this time the lights didn't turn on, the clock didn't turn on, the meter didn't even flush.
Since it didn't charge on my way home, could it also be the alternator?
Could it be any where 2 electrical? I'm hoping its only the battery...

Re: Battery Died??? (Senbonzakura)
there is no alternator on the bike. the charging system on the bike is the r/r and the stator which does the same thing as an alternator. I'm gauranteeing you that your r/r died. It's a very simple fix, you just need to do the test I said earlier. Borrow a buddy's battery tender and charge the battery, then do the test and let us know

Well today, i came to the conclusion. I took out the battery, tested it, it was low on juice but it wasn't the problem. The problem was a blown fuse and a low battery.
Thanks everyone who helped me
