Default Roadster Electrical Question

Just got a call from a friend that owns an 05 1200R. We did a full day of riding yesterday and when he went to start it up this morning all gauges and lights came on, but when he hit the ignition he heard a loud pop and everything went dead.

He checked the fuses and none of them are blown, he checked the battery and no leaks. The battery was fully charged (all gauges lit and headlamp on) and now unless he takes out the master fuse, the tach makes a rapid ticking sound.

Any clue on where to start trouble shooting?
