Checked the reg/rec?

Edit: Just see t'other thread. I so wanted to go on the rideout but my bike is crying out for a service but the bloke who does it has been busy. So instead I watched 6 hours of the BTCC then followed by the F1 race.

Dont know Reg/rec was deffo not working properly so replaced that and hoped all would be well and it had been up to yesterday.
The bike hadnt been out for 12 days and when i went to start it yesterday the battery was drained so i assumed it must be the alarm slowly draining it and decided to get a new battery and remove the alarm. Fine.
All was good on the way up to Yorkshire, stopped to refuel and started fine. Stopped for a break and started fine again. Next time i stopped for fuel (after 250ish miles) went to start it and dead as a flaming do-do!!!

If it was the alarm draining the battery then it shouldnt have failed the second time. I know the alternator is fine cos i checked the voltages when i replaced the reg/rec. My optimiser has a light that should come on if the battery is knackered but it doesnt so i assume the battery is fine.

TBH i dont know WTF to think!!! Any ideas anyone???
