so..need to know what to order
stator and vfrness or reg/rec and vfrness?

Update: Re-soldered the connections and replaced a blown fuse, now I only get a click from under the seat when I hit the starter. New battery time?

Battery is reading 17.6v sitting on my desk, swapped for one that reads 14.5v and the clicking noise is still there

Whereabouts are you located? I've got something that might help you; a 1998-2000 VFR800 service manual.

Need someone to have a look at it...I am having absolutely 0 luck. Going to try to get a new battery tomorrow.

The bike will start with the new battery. Keep a Voltmeter on the battery, when the Voltage gets over 15 Volts, turn off the engine. The Voltage may stay below 15 Volts at idle, take the engine to 4~5000 RPM.
Disconnect the R/R at the red/black connector. Start the engine. Note the battery Voltage.
Your R/R has burned out one or more of the SCRs and can no longer regulate the output.

All lights turn on signals work etc. Have not tried bump starting, and all fuses look ok.
Ah. So new battery R/R and vfrness? Anywhere more local then wiremybike that would have a vfrness?
I should also note that jump starting it did not work.
Edit: Just ordered VFRness, stator hardwire kit, and new R/R connectors (the one on my harness side was melted)
EditEdit: Swapped the battery with the one from my v45 sabre (same voltage readings, starts the sabre fine) and still only get the click.

Changed the battery in my multimeter, it now reads 0.7-0.8 ohms on the 3 wires coming from the stator and 0 continuity on all 3. Battery also reads 12.5v now instead of the 17.5v it was reading before.

Have not hooked the R/R back up had to undo the soldering to do some testing:
-Battery reads 12.75v
-Leak tested, meter reads 0.8mA
-The harness side of the R/R connector positives read 12.75v (positive lead on the red/white and common lead on the frame)
-Continuity between the harness side of the R/R connector negatives and grounded on the frame
This at least shows me the stator is ok for now, and the harness is ok. New R/R time while I wait for my vfrness and other parts to arrive

Installed the FH0122AA with VFR.CBR's help, and diagnosed a bad starter motor (has a dead spot) so now on the hunt for a new one!

Bad started motor or starter clutch?

...and when you would try starting it would it go: *clack clack clack* ?
Or just a single click?
A common starting issue is caused by the starter Clutch and not the motor itself.
