I have a bit of a conundrum. I was riding home last night and got about 2 miles from my house when all the electronics died. I looked under the seat and the main fuse was blown. I looked at all of the other fuses and they were all good. So I took the spare fuse that I have and replaced it, fired up the bike, put it in gear and started off. As soon as I applied any sort of power to the bike the main fuse blew yet again. So I did something that I don't like to do and that is take a piece of solid copper wire and made a jumper and started the bike and put it in gear and just feathered the clutch to get it home. I did not use any throttle while i was limping the bike home. Oh by the way now the battery is dead too.

If i am not mistaken all of that is a symptom of a bad VR correct?
