1100 Sport Intermittant Electrical Problem

Blows Main Fuse - Intermittently
Bike will run if already started.
No lights, no starter from the blown fuse.

The +12V DC wire to the idiot lights had rubbed through the insulation and then the paint of the subframe/ headlight assembly.

Solution: Fix wires (however you want...the correct way is to replace but black tape will do). Touch up the frame paint to prevent rust. Then find a piece of rubber hose [hint: look up your nose-bwahahahaha- ed the ed.] (fuel line or something of similar diameter) and split it with a razorblade and put it around the subframe and wire tie it. Now it's nicely insulated and you don't have to worry about it again.

Viva Baby!
