I was riding down the road and my bike started to cut in and out then my Harley lost all power. I got it home and replaced all 3 relays cleaned my started solenoid and replaced my voltage regulator my battery has 10v but when I turn my key to the first position and try to start it all that happens is my relay clicks and when I turn my key to the second position to turn my lights on I lose all power.

10 volts is not sufficient voltage to start a Harley Davidson. If you loose everything when you turn your ignition switch to the 2nd position, you either have a bad switch or a dead short.
Why was the voltage regulator changed? Was the charging system tested?
