^Doubtfull about the fuses, possible, but I doubt it.
There is obviously a loosed/bad connection somewhere. Pull your fairings and start inspecting wires.
Anything else happen when you loose your clock? Loose gauges at all? RPM's drop? Idle drop? Having any problems starting? When did you replace the battery and why?
First thing I would do is check the BOTH rectifier plugs to ensure they are properly connected. I had a similar issue and it eventually drained my new battery. Luckily I found it before it killed my $127 battery. If both plugs are connected, then remove your fairings and start checking connections.
Good luck, keep us posted.

Mine does the same thing, but it was in a wreck previously. I had to splice the connection between the gauge cluster and the main harness, so maybe it is a wire in there. I'll have to check the diagram when I get home tomarrow, but wonder if it's like a car radio with a constant hot line to save the clock/settingsand a trigger to power up everything only when the IGN is on. If that's the case, I'll jump +12 to that wire and test mine to see if it works and get back to you.
