I had this issue and it turned out to be the voltage regulator. Its like a 10 dollar part online. I unplugged the voltage regulator and put in a new fuse and the starter worked, the lights came back on, and the fuel gauge worked again. Dont run it a long time with no voltage regulator because it will kill the battery, just throw in a new one shortly.
Harry, dirty carb or injectors.

You have the HID lights on this bike? Make sure you have the right fuse, it should be a 15 amp. other than that i would suspect a direct short. The only trouble spot i have seen on these bikes are in the main wire harness under the gas tank. It is heavily taped and a real pain to get to, but it can be done. There is one spot that has double tape on it, this is a metal wire hangar and usually where the problem is. Peel all the tape off and inspected for a frayed wire. Good luck, and i hope this helps.
HI,,empty your gas tank,,and drain the carb put some new fuel in the tank and dont use additives again,,some do more harm than good (especialy in 2-strokes)
Yes, I've seen complete meltdowns of the entire wiring harnesses before. You're lucky you just blew a fuse. Now you've been given a warning that something is wrong and that you need to locate the problem. I've seen some older bikes that didn't have a fuse or circuit breaker in the wiring harness actually catch on fire because of a short.
Now, depending on what make and model of your bike is, determnes where you need to look. I work mostly on Harley's as that's what I've been working with since 1966. I find Harley's simplier to work on as they don't change as often as the Japanese bikes do. If your bike has a fuse box and it's not blowing any fuses other than the main fuse, the problem is most likely between the battery and that main fuse box. You really need to find a schematic of the wiring on your bike. Good Luck!
Sounds as if you messed some wiring up! For FYI in the future never lay a motorbike or any type of cycle down unless it fell or by accident cause it was not made to be laid on its side, but straight up only! The wiring harness by the front and under the seat(If it has them in that model) needes to be checked! Take it to the dealer or a trusted mechanic ASAP!
