Help! Dead bike.

rubyscube:
Thanks for all the replies guys!

It's a CB500 K1, and it was just the main fuse that blew :) sorry for being such a fish out of water, but I'm learning something new about my bike every day.. ;)

That's the statement I reacted to, but I'm too lazy to detect who ever wrote it :D. Anyway with our friends in Scandinavia we always have the chance it's about one of the 4200 C500K3s that were mainly shipped to them.

Green1:
My Guzzi has LED Stop/Tail lights and indicators as standard and I'm not a fan they are either on or off and unlike conventional bulbs they don't throw there light outwards so are not visable from the sides

Chris400F:
I have an LED stop/tail bulb fitted to my 400/4, not because I have any inherent dislike of ordinary bulbs but because there is only one bulb and I suspect (without any proof) that an LED bulb should be less likely to fail. Mine has radial LEDs as well as the rear facing cluster (25 LEDs in total) so does put light outwards as well (needed for number plate illumination as well as visibility from the side). The bulb looks pretty much like this one, shown in a holder.

mike the bike:
I'm not a big fan of LED indicators but led stop lights have the advantage of being visible around 300mS sooner than incandescent bulbs, giving the following driver more notice of your braking.
