wassup guys i need help. i had some problems with my battery few days ago so i recharged it but i unknowingly charged it with 6V rather than the recommended 2V. My bike didnt turn on so i thought it was the battery so i replaced it. I found out that the main fuse was blown so i tried replacing it. It blew again as soon as i put it in. I keep blowing the 30amp fuse everytime i connect the battery back up. I have no idea what the problem is. Help me out please..

Sounds like a short somewhere. Check the service manual to see what runs to that fuse and then trace the wiring for the components. You'll probably find a spot where the sheathing has been rubbed down to the wiring. Maybe check after market add-on connections too.
