Hi,
I recently bought a 2003 VFR800, and after riding it a couple hundred miles, a fuse blew and I my instrument panel and headlight went dark. I got her home and replaced the fuse, started her up and all was working fine. I took a 5 minute test ride, and it blew again. Started looking on forums and found that adjusting the front brake lever is a common fix. I tried it with no luck; the fuse blew again within 5 minutes. I tried cutting the high beams off (as I always ride with them on) and it didn't blow the fuse after a 30 minute test drive. Rode for a week, and part of a Sunday drive (about 200 miles in total) and the fuse blew again without the high beams on. I was hoping I had pinpointed it to being a issue in the high beam circuit, but I'm not sure now since it blew again with the high beams off. Any tips before I tear the whole front end apart trying to find the issue? Thanks in advanced.
