Hey all...so my electrical problems continue...as I am trying to figure out what is going on with my charging system, now my guages don't work, no lights, no readings...high beam indicator comes on though, but none of the other idiot lights. Any thoughts?

Ok.

But now you need to spend some time with the covers off checking wiring on that 13 year old bike. Look for rubbed or pinched insulation. Such areas may have carbon tracking to an intermittent ground and pop more fuses. Check all connectors at the same time for corrosion and clean them. Time spent will prevent being stuck later...
