Hi all I know there's threads bout this but I thought I'd start my own well here goes I have a 82 xs400 special and I bought the bike bout 2 years ago rode a couple days not far cause it had problems but it did wanna crank back then so I started painting it in the mean time I changed the controls but they were apperently European cause the wires don't match so I got those fixed so here's the problem.
OK so my bike has a fuse panel with 4 glass fuses and I think I have the wires right but besides that there is a inline fuse right at the front of the rear fender and every time I turn the key it blows the fuse.
Now I tracked down the fuse wires one goes to the front to the key ignition inside the headlight then its spliced to go to the starter relay coming off the battery and it goes to the Cdi box.
After checking all that I didn't find any breakage or shorts and I've been battling with the wiring for some time now .
Is there anyone having this problem with the inline fuse please help
