Hyosung dies, blows fuses

[JustNick]

Is it possible that you have a wire that is shorting when you turn the handle bars? Chaffed wire etc? If you start the bike and let it idle for a period of time, does it still blow fuses?

I can start and stop the bike, idle it and rev it up etc with no problems, time after time.... untill I put it into gear and ride it, even a few meters in a straight line, then as soon as the engine stops (kill switch / Ign switch or stall) the fuze blows....

Disconnect sidestand switch and tie both wires together, so the same with the clutch switch.

did that yesterday... that was my 'easy fix' lol, now the neutral indicator is one I cant bypass... or is it lol

Looking at the diagram, if you wanted to isolate the neutral switch it looks like you could just disconnect it and earth the wire out, I don't think that would accomplish much though.

Yeah, I think Im gona strip the bike anyway... get it sorted for summer. Nothing like a full rebuild to iron out all the bugs... plus I bought a Clubsport a few weeks ago and am Loving it

it chould be wire getting pulled with regaurd to indicators seems if they work when bike not moving . but retrace your steps when you repalced the battery what you
moved or touched
and in this case might be better taking to good auto electrian might save alot hassle in long run should not be blowing fuses like that esp not the main one
whould seem to indicate your getting short of some kind check no bare wires touching the frame chaffed wiring around sterring head try moving the bars with indicators going also make sure your fuse you replacing is right amperage as the orginal one

Have a weird problem with my Hyobag... Blows a fuse when I switch it off, either by the kill switch or key... also indicators wont work when bike is moving, yet everything works while bike is in neutrel and running, or just ign on... WTF?
Any ideas as to how to trouble shoot this problem? I have replaced battery a month ago due to it dying and not holding a charge... could this indicate regulator fault?
Cheers for any help.

Sapperj,
Have you trawled through Korider? There is alot of posts about the reg/rec and strator blowing out? Your symptoms sound like some of the posts on Korider which end up being the reg/rec...just a thought?

Sounds like when you turn off the bike all the electrical charge is getting dumped back to the charging system and blowing your fuse...reg/rec not working or connection to it is dodgey???...but did you say you tested it....brain not w..o...r...k...i...n...g

Yes I tested the Reg/Rec and the test results were not to spec... Might be onto something there with it dumping charge back through the system... however it still blew the fuze with the reg/rec disconnected... just a thought, should I have disconnected the Stator wires as well as the reg??? who knows.

Any Hyobag riders in Palmy you can ask to swap out the reg/rec to try and eliminate??

be careful with that as something else may have cooked it and you don't want to have to owe another...

Check the feed wire for the horn.

Yeah I dont want to blow someone elses reg... This weekend I will have time to continue my investigation... thanks for all the pointers, but as it only happens when in gear, I will start with the neutral switch, then a through re check of the loom... as finances permit I will replace faulty stator and reg/rec anyway. Bikes are like women. fun to ride but expensive to keep... thank god I have a car!
