Try tightening the bolts that hold the wires onto the battery.

yes plenty of times

Did you check the fuse by the battery?

no i did not but i think we know what it is, my kill switch was ghetto riged and i guess the wire that goes to the coil wasnt touching how it was suppose to, and that caused a short  >:( thats what i think it is...

Mine did that and it was my wiring harness. Yamaha had to replace it for me. Hopefully it is your kill switch. Mine also recently went bad as well.
