I recently purchased a mint Yamaha Enduro with only 1,480 miles. Everything was perfect until I noticed I didn't have a headlight. All filaments are melted (except for turn signals). Is there a bad ground some where? Is there a safety component that can be added to protect a surge melting the expensive bulbs? Does the battery act as a surge protector? Fuse not blown.

I suggest you discuss this matter with the parts guy at your Yamaha dealership.

Same happended to me with exactly the same motorcycle... I solved the provblem by replacing the crankshaft oil seal on the rightside of the crankcase. It solved the problem immediatly!
SOURCE: Can a voltage regulator/rectifier if not working
YES!
Good link here:

Symptoms:
Lights flickering at times and/or battery gets hot to the touch
Problem:
Reglator/Rectifier
When the regulator dies, it allows as much as 19 volts to appear across the battery. This is not good. It will cook the battery and the battery could even explode. Fuse can not stand up to this!

There seems to be a short circuit to the head light wiring....you'll have to trace it...

Since you have the CDI failure for the second time , it is important that the voltage parameters are checked on the bike charging system.
The CDI is equipped to handle a wide range but if there is any chance of the voltage build up being higher or containing Ac factors out of a poor rectification circuit, the CDI can be effected. So test the inputs.
Now make sure the outputs are also not shorting out, check the ignition system.
If you have made any alterations, it is an areas to recheck so as the CDI is not draining out into the new unit.
The CDI is overheating with a reason and if you have not found any such defects in the bike it will be good to send your olda nd damaged units to CDI service for review. It can be confirmed if this is a manufacturing errors for which you can even get a free replacement. make sure the ground connections are tight as well as the battery leads.
