Question continuity and charging issues

hey you will have to bear with me here now my suzuki gs 850 has been in the garage for 4 years we decided to dig her out and polish her up and get her running now all was good until we realised the battery not charging! the alternator is fine and have had it tested and upon the re-discovery of my manuals for the bike i set about testing now the continuity tests on the loom for some reason on my bike seem to be in reverse eg r when it should no reading there is and vice verse

please help before i put a hammer through it haha
