The first thing to check is always the bit that you changed. You really do have to give a lot more information on what you tried and what you got if you want help.

For example, what do you mean 'the generator checks out ok'. What is a generator, how did you test it and what were the results?
If you meant the stator, then a static test should show the same small resistance between each of the wires, a dynamic test should show around 30v AC on each of the lines to the reg/rec with the engine at fast idle. The reg/rec should be showing about 14.5 volts on its output side. The battery itself should be tested. Take it out of the bike and leave it for an hour. Healthy is over 12.5v, weak is 11 to 12v. Dead is less then 10v. If it is not full, charge it over night, disconnect the charger and leave it for an hour before testing again. If it is under 12.5v, replace it.
