Total ignition loss

:smt013
Riding home from work,my bike just kept cutting out unless i reved the nuts of it. At high revs / large throttle opening it seemed ok, but at lower revs it just kept kangaroo'ing or cutting out completely if i pulled the clutch in, the rev counter also dropped down to zero each time.
Arrived home after alot of clutch slipping, i thought i could smell an electrical sorta burning smell.
Havn't had a look since it's dark outside, what do you think it is?
Only thing i can think of really would be the reg/rec, all other electrics are fine though.

roo juice. sounds very odd, anything else happening?

Nope, not that i'm aware of.
It refused to start the other night and ended up having to bump it, but i put that down to running out of petrol lol.

better get the multimeter out then and start checking some circuits.

Found the source of the burning, one of the pins on the block connecting to the reg is a little burnt.
However, it all seems fine now. Started up perfect, battery voltage was fine and reg output was fine. Just can't figure out why it's burnt.
Also, i measured the resistance on the burnt pin but that was fine (like 1-2 ohms).

mine did that then burnt through, I cut the plug off and replaced it with a whole lot of spade terminals

It's running fine now lol. Doesn't seem to be effecting it atall, rode to work in the dry, and in the wet on the way back with not troubles.
