Maybe its a bad relay. try swapping important relays for not so important relays.

Yeah had this problem and covered it before, your relays may have gone bad or just need to be pulled and put back in to reset them.

Not sure why this happens but I guess **** happens is the best explination..

Check the battery connections and 2 main frame ground points. You never know - something may be loose.

i had the same problem, loose positive battery connection, the lead post broke off and it killed my battery, and my voltage regulator.

Good 4 U!
Hey, be careful that the ignition is really in the "off" position when you stop the bike. I once let the battery drain by turning the key past the "lock" position to the accessories on position. Unless in off or lock positions, the battery will drain.
Wonder why your first charger didn't work. I have battery tender junior and it is perfect. Not a 2-hour quick charge by any means, but I don't need that.
