Yes. There couldve had a wire that chafed and cause it to fry the vr. My thumb warmer wire broke and shorted out after a roll over and cause the vr to fry. I previously had the vr and ecu fry because of a faulty vr and there wasn't anything wrong with any of the other wiring. I would take the fuel tank off and make sure that the tail light wire is gd an look over the rest of the wiring.

Mine is a '10, but my dealer told me to separate the voltage regulator and the black box that bolts on top of it. I simply flipped the black box over and bolted it up through the plastic covering. And cut holes in the aluminum clutch cover and corresponding holes through the foam.
