Here I sit at 3:30 in the morning staring at the electrical workings of my "new" 02 tiger. I bought this a week ago from someone who had done all the awsome fixes found here at TT.com. These fixes  believe is what left me stranded on the side of the road yesterday with a dead battery dur to charging system failure. Here is what I am seeing, please let me know if this sounds correct...
I see two wiring harness coming from what I believe is called the RR.
One has two red and two black, the other three yellow.
the three yellow connects to a plug with three black and continues along its merry way.
The two black,two red plug appears to be modified.
The two reds appear to be combined and continue on to connect to the positive terminal.
The two blacks also are combined and connect to the negative terminal.

I get no voltage increase across the terminals after the bike is started.

Any and all information/suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

I may as well do it, as I'm gonna get blamed for it anyway.

I looked at that, I am not electrically savvy. I was wondering if anyone could tell by my description if the wiring sounds correct

That will be the bad connectors, best to do the mod for the cableing or check it has been done correctly and suspect the reg/rect is on its way. Replace with a Mosphet R/R. Late Honda fireblade ones are good.
