When I ride street I usally use my high beams. Last week they cut out popping the fuse. I replaced the fuse, started my bike and the fuse popped again. I took all the fairings, gas tank off and looked for a live wire, nothing could be found. I change the bulbs and sockets, still the fuse pops whenI hit high beams. What am I missing?

when i had my 900 , same thing happened .....except is was my guages not my lights. my bulbs in my taillight were broken from wheelies and the metal in the bulb was touching each other. check all of ur bulbs and make sure they arent broken

 

All bulbs work. Even the high beams for a few short seconds, but they die out pretty quick.

check your relay, (on my 900rr its by my guages) it could be bad or just loose.

 

What's a relay?

same thing on mine....

I took the switch apart and i found out the contacts werent fully contacting because of all the grease the factory put in there. I wiped all the grease out (dont lose the tiny [tiny] little spring) and its good as new.
