The main "fuse" is located on the side of the starter solenoid, near the front of the battery, under a plastic cover. It's a very thin strip of metal, fastened with two Philips-head screws. I replaced mine with a modern blade style fuse by attaching each wire of the new fuse holder under the screws.

There are also two fuses underneath the cover on top of the handle-bar mount.

I think those are the only ones. The fuses above the bars & the fusible link next to the starter relay.

I used this Flasher Unit when I switched to smaller incandescent lights in the front & LED's in the back:

It plugs right in & works perfect.

Good luck
