Motorcycle Repair: sudden loss of power..., inline fuse, fuse box


Question
hey mike hopefully you can answer this, i was riding my bike and all of a sudden i loss complete power to my bike no lights are coming on its just dead? i checked some fuses on top of the battery in the junction box, thinkin it might be a fuse but they all looked good was wondering if there may be more fuses i did not check or what you think is up? thnks

Answer
Check to see if either of the battery cables are loose and that the battery is fully charged. Some bikes have a fuse somewhere along  the positive cable, so follow the route of the cable until you find an inline fuse or a fuse box. Another possibility is a loose or broken wire at the ignition switch.
