Hi Guys,
My 2000 Busa with 30,000 miles has just started blowing the 15amp ignition fuse (in the left side of the cockpit).
I was out on a days blast on Wednesday just gone when I stopped for fuel after 2 hours of riding. Filled her up, turned the ignition on, clutch in and thumbed the starter. Nothing! There was no crank and almost immediately my clock went blank then showed four lines (like this _ _ _ _ ) and my temperature guage went straight in to the red and stayed there. Then the clock reads CHECK. I carry a fair few spare fuses, so changed it and it did the same thing 4 times before being left for 20 mins (went for a McDonalds!) and with a new fuse fired in to life and has been fine for the last few days until doing the same thing again this morning!
Question is, does the fact that it shows the lines, says CHECK and the temp guage is going to the red identifying what is causing the fuse to blow? I was leaning towards the kill switch as that is what it the bike shows if you leave it in the off position?
A full strip down, clean and re-grease is on the cards in 2 weeks, as she lives out in the cold all year round, only covered when not used for a period of time (which is very rare!!). It's not rained here on the South Coast of the UK for over a week, however is only 1-3 degrees at the moment.
What do you think guys? Any ideas? ???
