So here is an electric problem I'm looking to fix. I was riding when the bike felt like it wouldn't throttle. I look down at dash and gauges are off and no lights. I pull off and the bike shuts off. Headlight still on. I turn on, the needles go up and down and lights go throught normal sequence. I turn over and bike makes clicking sound. I take it to harley, they tell me my battery was drained. Ok. Recharge and the bike rides well for 25 some miles. Then same thing. I replace battery and the bike rides well for 30miles then dies again. Same thing. I have new spark plugs so I doubt fouled plug. Seems electrical, but not sure what it may be. Harley said bike checked out welll. Need help to figure out problem.
 
regulator. and probably a short to ground somewhere. im doing the same thing right now
 
Search the forum, your problem was posted several times.
Check regulator , stator , ’77 connector’ , short...
There's alot of info how to check that and Buell Service Manual has a good Diagnostics/Troubleshooting section.
