o/ i went out for a ride with my mate and as i was coming back i got caught in the rain and then my bike felt sluggish and then she wouldnt rev past 5k and she cut out more than once in dangerous places like on a busy roundabout and on a link way :/ anyways heres a video of it trying to rev when i got it home but soon as i got her home she went back to riding fine and now will ride perfect and this only happens in the rain :/

Turn the engine and ignition off, pull the spark plug cap off, check for slits on it, post pictures of it for us to see in fact, from top and bottom angle so we can see the inside too. If the rubber is perished, get a new one, that'd be your problem.

That fails, electrical problem, water getting in hence it happening in the rain. I'm placing bets on the spark plug cap though.

Should probably get a new spark plug whilst getting a new cap. NGK cap is cheap enough, eBay it. Simple to fit just a case of screwing the old one off and screwing the new one on.

You've had the engine out and plastics all off, did you cover the loom back up with electrical tape? If you didn't probably getting wet wires in the rain, need to pull the plastics off and tape all the loom up. Only do this as a last resort though, get the new NGK cap and spark plug before.

little tip when taping the wires up, just go up the tape with cable ties, as sometimes the glue will stop sticking and this helps it a bit!

 +1 And absolutely layer that tape up, a bit wasteful, but will secure it longer the more tape you wrap around. Don't do it too tight though.

 Leave loom as a last resort. Get the new NGK cap and spark plug first. No point in wasting time doing the loom, unless it really needs it. So get the spark plug cap done then ride in rain and see if the problem continues, if so, loom.

Still spray all the new stuff with wd40 mind, it leaves a protective film over it all.

 Just get an NGK cap. Got mine, never done it. The old ones are made of rubber, so perish after a while.
