Earlier today I went for a ride, all of a sudden motor died so I came to a stop put it in neutral and my notification light was not on. So I checked my fuses the Ignition fuse was Blown and the headlight was working with key on, I tried swapping my headlight fuse to get home that didn't work. So I got it home noticed the headlight turn signals all worked but no neutral light was working wouldn't crank over. Neg cable was loose I re tightened the cable still nothing now Ive lost all power all together. Any thoughts??

Make up a signature and put your bike year and model in the same. I hesitate giving advice without knowing which bike is being asked about. Cheers!

So upon further investigation, I have 12.7 at battery, I have 12.7 at main 30 amp fuse but no where else key on no power on any of the fuses but the main fuse. I jumped the main fuse with the ignition/horn with a wire low and behold I got power, I think I might have a faughlty ignition switch?! Pulled clutch in bike cranked over no problem.
Jumpered main to taillight fuse, tail light works and so forth. Tried jumpering to the headlight fuse but no luck headlight did not come on, (if the switch was bad it needs to be on for the headlight to work correct?)

Thanks for your help!

Update on this, I had a lack of connection at the fuse panel under the seat. Contacts where corroded/green
Cleaned and re-installed fuses and good to go.

Heavy gauge white wire with one pin connection near the fuse box is the main power feed from the 30amp fuse to the ignition switch. The only other connector between the two is behind the headlight.
