Default zx7r keeps blowing a fuse.

I have a 2000 ZX7R. When riding, the ignition fuse 10A keeps blowing at random intervals. This causes all power to cease. Has anyone had this problem? If so, any help is appreciated.

any chance of a loose, exposed,or pinched wire grounding out used to happen to the wires that ran under my seat of an old bike that bike was a junker so i didnt mind just rigging it in an emergency that i was in taped up the wire and wrapped fuse in aluminum foil put back in it will work but then no actuall fuse so i dont reccomend , that only works with old school bikes with the tubular type fuses but the wire thing could be the problem no??

yea we have checked about as many wires as we can find and nothing seems to be shorting, it happens at random intervals so its still a mystery, any more help would appreciate.

I am curious to see if the switch itself is causing you the grief. You mentioned that you verified all wires. So what else is in the ignition circuit but the switch itself?
