Blowing fuse

I keep blowing the main 30A fuse by the battery. 2003 ZX12R. Anybody have any suggestions on where to start? I checked all connections as they are secure and no corrosion or shorts as far as I can see

RE: Blowing fuse

Any other gizmos or aftermarket electrical stuff? There's a wiring problem somewhere.

do they bloow instantly or do they take some time to blow if they blow im,mediately obviously you have a dead short somewhere if they take a while thats a little different.
