    Having electrical problem , can anyone point me in the right direction.

    whent on a 300 mile ride today , It was a great day . when I got the bike home I realized I have no blinkers , horn , or brake light, . The front blinkers are running lights to ,and they work , but when I put on the left blinker on , the left running light goes out. same for the right. The running lights do work in the tail light , but no brake light ,when its applied. can anyone please give me some direction. thanks (I think fuse)

    We had this problem last fall and it ended up being a corroded connection in the wiring harness on the left side around the top of the engine. Someone will remember. Asian guy;s bike from near Boston.

    Blown fuses are just symptomatic of underlying issues. You may have fixed it for now by replacing the fuse, but a worn-bare wire somewhere is going to short out again when your bike hits the right road bumps.

    If it repeatedly blows, yes.
