Yeah, I had a similar situation that im glad never came to fruition.  When I was loading up the bike into the box of my F150, to take it to an old gent i know who was gonna help set the ignition timing, i go to squeeze the brake as I approach the ramp to the tailgate, and the front brake Master Cylinder blows.  Ticked me off at the time, and I needed to replace that part, but of course I am very glad that it blew then, rather than  while I was doing a buck-10 (110km/hr) down the highway and some obstacle pop up that required immediate stoppage of the bike.  Would that fuse blowing also kill power to the rest of the bike, aka ignition coils etc and stop the engine from functioning or would it keep going?  Sorry for the silly newbie questions on bike mechanics, but I would rather ask a stupid question (and a lot of them..) than make a stupid mistake.
