				My RVF400 has been running fine up until this morning when I tried to start her. The cluster all lit up until I pressed the ignition button, then there was a click and all power shut off.
I have changed the battery and checked all the fuses yet I have no power to my cluster, lights or anything.
It has no immobiliser (that I know of) and I'm running out of ideas to what it could be. 
Would really appreciate some help, cheers

				The 30amp fuse? Yea that's still intact, but would that stop all power even in Acc?

				Hi mate, I have had a similar problem and im sure this can help! If all the fuse are ok chance are its a dodgey connection so get a voltmeter and check connection points, get hold of a wiring diagram (there are loads of s online. Follow the ignition loom around starting from the battery, you should have a 12V reading all way around providing your battery isnt dead. This method will tell you where the break in the circuit is. If this does work check all the connections of the battery are tight and have good contact (ie postive and ground that connect to battery). next you wanna check the solenoid, which is located on the right side  of battery (if sitting on bike). make sure if you have removed the wires you have put the back properly. ie live to live and ground to ground. next you want to check the ecu plug is still connected (its at the back above brake light)  and lastly check the ignition to make sure none of the wire have fallen out. If all the fuse are ok chance are its a dodgey connection. That should be it otherwise it could be your reg/rec, but im 99% sure its a loose connection, as this happened to me.  good luck
