Oil
Also check that bike is properly positioned. Is bike on level ground? With most bikes oil is checked on center stand or holding bike upright not on side stand. Also check manual some bikes say to check hot very few with cold motor. (many bikes with oil tanks will fill up crankcase and appear empty if checked cold especially after sitting for a long time) Most will say to wait a period of time after turning off motor (usually between 10 and 30 min.) but some say to check immediately after turning off. ,

Battery does not hold charge @
Something has to be draining your battery. Try to find out what is still pulling power. What could still be running even when your ignition switch is off. Usually it's the parking light. Depending on your make the last turn of your key after your lock, is a parking light notch. My Hyabusa has that kind of notch and I'm always being alerted that my back light is still on after I'm in the house.
The battery will not hold charge @
If the battery won't hold a charge take it to an auto parts store. they'll usually check it for you on a load tester for free. Typically the issues of the battery discharging stem from the charging system. I would check the stator output as well as the regulator. More than likely your problems stem from those areas.

Is there a main fuse that would of blown if I hooked my charger directly up to the + and - terminals on the starter on my 09 kymco venox 250 motorcycle?
Yes, there is likely a main fuse in your 2009 Kymco Venox 250 motorcycle that could have blown if you connected the charger directly to the + and - terminals on the starter. Many motorcycles have a main fuse located close to the battery or the fuse box to protect the electrical system from overloads and short circuits.
When you connect a charger directly to the starter terminals or other critical electrical components, you risk damaging the electrical system and causing a short circuit. If there was a surge of current due to improper connection, it could have blown the main fuse to protect the rest of the electrical components on the bike.
To troubleshoot the issue and restore power to your motorcycle, follow these steps:
- Locate the Main Fuse: Check your motorcycle's manual or service documentation to find the location of the main fuse. It is often located close to the battery or in the fuse box.
- Inspect the Main Fuse: Remove the main fuse and visually inspect it. If the main fuse is blown, you will see a break in the metal strip inside the fuse. Replace the blown fuse with a new one of the same amperage rating.
- Check Other Fuses: Even though you mentioned that all the fuses are good, double-check all the other fuses in the fuse box to ensure none of them have blown.
- Check Battery Voltage: After replacing the main fuse, check the voltage of the battery using a multimeter. Ensure the battery has enough charge (around 12.6 volts or higher) to power the electrical components.
- Reconnect Charger Properly: If the battery voltage is low, connect the charger properly to the battery terminals (positive to positive and negative to negative) and charge the battery until it reaches an appropriate level.
- Recheck Power: Once the battery is charged and all fuses are confirmed to be good, turn the key on and check if the lights and gauges receive power.
If you have followed these steps and still do not have power to the motorcycle, there might be other electrical issues caused by the improper charger connection. In that case, it's recommended to seek the assistance of a qualified motorcycle mechanic or electrician to diagnose and fix the problem correctly.
