gsxr 750

Slightly off topic, apologies. I've been storing a gsxr 750 this year. Last night put a new battery in it, it was very dark, and in the gloom I touched terminals with the wrong polarity !!!!!! Can't get anything electrical to work. No lights, starter etc. I've checked all fuses, OK.
It looks like I've blown something, any ideas on what ?

Rectifier/voltage regulator thingy?

This went on my mates XJ600 and had a similar effect.

Is there a fuse on the starter Relay. I know on some Kawasakis there is a 30amp blade fuse in the starter relay which I think covers the main power feed from the battery to the electrical systems, i.e. lights, CDi, etc.
