Some from below the Battery, probably cooked the Rectifiers Diodes. This would require a new R/R assy. There is testing in your manual for it. Un hook the R/R, check all the fuses. Get a test light or Meter to check battery voltage. Charge it outside of the bike. Test it with a meter, then say a head light bulb. or take it to a Auto store for testing. There are several things that may have smoked. Get a charge/ good battery then start testing for power along the circuits. Look for and repair any heat damaged wiring. Most likely from R/R to battery, and R/R to Stator. Stator may be toast, check it for the proper resistance/Ohms for shorts and opens.
