it seems to be but i spose it may not be goin through carbs. will check that

Try checking your Regulator/Rectifier, they are known to fail sometimes without any warning.

Look at the white multi plug that connects to it, if you see any burnt terminals, then sods law says your regulator/rectifier has burnt out, replace it & you should be ok. Can be found bolted to front of battery box, looks like a square box with fins on outside face. You may have to fit spade connectors in place of the multi plug, depending of severity of damage to multi plug & wiring.

Have had the same problem on wifes old ZXR400 & a m8 had the same problem on his 02 R1.

Hope you sort out your probs :luck:
