cb500 dead short
Toko_Jo:
Sounds like you have nearly disconnected everything on the main loom. If so do a continuity check between a black wire and a green wire. and if there is a short (other than the loom chafing on the frame somewhere) then it's the loom.

Cheers guys
Already removed the regulator and andrectifier.
It really is looking at taking the loom off and seeing if I can find anything. Cheers all

Mine was originally a new aftermarket loom from DSS the year before Rich. Graham put another new loom on, changed the ignition switch and the sub loom. Never did find what part was at fault because i just wanted to ride her once she was running.

Sounds silly but it sounds like you’ve got two wires connected that shouldn’t be, make sure when everything is back in place that all the connectors are separated as if it ran ok but doesn’t now has something moved and started touching? If it has you won’t find the fault. I’d plug it all back in and start one at a time again if you can as per suggested. I do think it sounds like a crap earth or a loom off job sadly

Nothing is left connected so my thoughts are melted loom for some reason. To me it's the only logical answer now. I'll try and get time in the next week to take it to bits I'll report back when I have done it .cheers all
