i'm dumbfounded i went for a ride today to see if i could tell what was making the fuse blow found out that it does it when i'm accelerating from a stop.
This just gets wierder.

Well, something is flopping around.

Pull the left side cover and check for a wire or cable hanging around the shock or suspension and also check the wire feed thru(s) in the rear fender. If the grommet in the fender has shifted a wire could be shorting there.

Check the wiring in the headlight shell. There are steel straps in there to hold the wiring in place and if the wiring is shifting under acceleration one could have sawn through the insulation.

Best guess for today....

Jim
