Ogmios style mechanicing - NOT recommended!
I meant to say
So you went through all of the possibilities possible and (i'm hoping) have found the problem and fixed it .
Except you dont know which of all the things you fiddled with actually fixed it and was the actual cause.
So if it happens again - what? Are you going to go through the whole palaver of going through all of the above? Again?
I'm not saying this just to give you grief, honest!
It's just that this is EXACTLY what i've done on my Guzzi, especially with electrical trouble;
I.E. thought about ALL the things it could be and gone through ALL of the possible things to do to fix it.
Then it's back working fine again.
... and someone says to me "Oh, you got it working. That's great. What was it?"
and i reply "Er..... dunno"

Removed relays, ( all Italian) wiggled them, removed fuses..... The one that is for the ignition circuit ( well, when removed and ignition turned on, no lights came up on the dash) had obviously overheated, the plastic was quite deformed. Not looked at the fuses for many years, I've had the bike for 10.
Undone several connectors, looked at terminals for verdigris, none there, as I tend to break and make connectors and dribble ACF in, whenever I get a bike.
Not conclusive as I only revved it for a few seconds, but, the rev counter needle doesn't dance when the bike isn't moving.
No time to get on the bike today, I'll go out on it tomorrow
