Agreed: I can't imagine the XR650L having any significant parasitic battery draw. Unless you have an ignition disable feature, or worse, an alarm system, it should not be a problem. Even a clock is negligible. It is easy to determine though: Just measure the current inline at the [removed] battery terminal when the bike is off.
In terms of the CB, statistics and parameters are likely stored in non-volatile memory (that is my guess) and copied to volatile memory at start-up for fast read/write access. Otherwise, I can't imagine any significant draw. Curious, should measure it.
