2000 CBR600 -New to the blog. Apologies if I'm posting in the wrong area. I haven't ridden my bike for a couple of weeks and had a dead battery. I have a tender and charged the battery up. Did this a couple of times with no problems when I haven't ridden in a while. When I went back to put the battery back on, I accidentally connected the battery wires to the wrong terminals. Stupid, DUMB - I know! There was a small spark. I reconnect the terminals to the right battery poles and this time - nothing - key is in, button is on -nothing. I looked on the forum and it said some people with battery issues were hearing a clicking but I don't. So 1) I can't find the 30amp fuse that is supposed to be on the start relay. (I think that I saw a good picture of it so I'm going to check again tonight.- any good pics or links to a pic to assist would also help) But if it isn't the battery and it's not the 30 amp. fuse. What would you do next in the process of elimination of what I stupidly did wrong. Can you give me a list of items you would check/change. I haven't bought a new battery yet? could that be it..the tender charger has a green light that tells me its fully charged. Thank u in advance for the advice.
