Default GSXR Bike won't start, no power sometimes, somethings pops.

I have a 2002 Suzuki GSXR 6000. The bike has been running fine all summer except the other day. I got on the bike, turned the key and pressed the start button. I heard a pop sound from under the seat. Everything on the bike turned off and I had no power. The starter didn't even turn over. So whenever I turn the key on, the bike is dead. I took the seat off, start looking for the problem, all the fuses are fine. I was pushing on the wiring harnesses under the seat and checked all connections which were fine. After moving things, I turn the key on and there was power again. I still had the seat off so I pressed the start button and again I heard the pop coming from around the battery. After it poped, there wass no power again. Any suggestions?
