Hi, mates was wondering what could be causing me to be blowing fuses??? Went thru a gross :banghead: It all started after I took the body work off maybe a wire is grounding somewhere?? You guys tell me. Also while I am here I fired it up the first time this year on wed but i am having bogging problems at low speed around 40mph at 4000rpm but it clears up then boggs highly annoying but I pulled a (ton) 100 no problem at all go figure....Vince

Start with a volt meter and see what you have running around the bike. Take apart every connection, clean, lube with dielectric grease, measure voltage. Repeat as necessary. The bogging may be the same issue, as there may not be enough electrons flowing to keep the ignition happy. Start with your battery.

Cheers,

Hey Vince,
I had that exact same problem when I had my Paso and it turned out to be the front indicator wire was earthing out ( on the fork leg when braking if I remember correctly ).Once I taped that up the problem dissapeared.

Cheers
Andrew
