IF the CDI is.....

if the CDI(i think thats what its called)(box about 3in by 2.5in with cooling fins)  is sitting under the seat unbolted now:

1:  the powder coating rubs down to bare metal on the box
2: the paint on the fender where the box is sitting rubs down to bare metal

WILL this situation cause fuses to Short out?

when i moved the box a LONG time ago i dont remember if it had busings underneath it or just hard mounted to the fender

something is causeing problems like this guy:  Angry

That's the rectifier.

The CDI is under the left side cover, no fins.

bare metal to bare metal shouldn't be a problem, mine is bolted to the fender with no isolation bushings.

SSHHT !

Today's the test ride.

Lets see how it goes

I checked every possible place for some kind of worn out wire
except for the head light


any ideas on finding whats causing the fuses to go?

thanks for the help VERS!

the bike went all day yesterday..

i had slide a piece of plastic(cut up dust pan) underneath the Rectifier
and removed the brake light mod i had on there.

next week i'll put the light mod back on and cross my fingers....

thanks again!
