i have a 1981 dt 175 mx which i bought partly restored, one of the jobs left to do is connect the wiring loom, the wiring is connected to the magneto and the bike runs, engine kill switch works,but when i tryed connecting the battery it blew the fuse 
. i have tried dissconnecting all the looms in the headlight and connecting just the ignition switch that was ok but as soon as i turn on the key the fuse blows. any ideas ? problem with the rectifier or regulator maybe ? what do these do ? sorry if im a bit thick but i have never had to play with electrics before, my fzs 600 never goes wrong
