went out for a run today and got 25 miles in decided turn around and head for home then the bike went dead, the fuse blew, stupidly i never had a spare, one of those WTF moments, rang the mrs and no reply and couldnt be arsed waiting for breakdown service. Heath Robinson step to the front. i stretched the spring in the fuse holder so each contact minus the fuse mated managed to get home the 25 miles with no issue. i am fitting a blade fuse holder this week and taping 2 under the seat.
incidentally when i put a new glass fuse in it was fine not sure why it blew?

Seat of the pants fix saw you thru… 🤞👍
original fuse could just have aged.
 
Check the rubber multiblock connector under tank. I had a new one with poor webbing between the bullets leading sporadic misfires, other weird electric issues and even fuse blowing.
