btw that model can be subject to 2 problems
1.) tip over sensor mounting bracket cracking--causes motor to stop while riding ( maybe when hitting a bump) lights etc. continue working
2.) ign switch contacts can fail-- motor stops, no lights no starter... can be weak lights, that dim when starter button is pushed.
3.) main breaker you are looking at- breakers are triggered by heat...sometimes heat from rear header can trip the breaker--- and they do get weak over time- replace.
if you are trouble shooting just connect the wires together- bind them on the same post to test.

Thanks Mike...! For the next guy, symptoms were: go to start...all looked good with lights on and fuel pump pushing, hit start...everything dies. Try and start again....everything still dead. Start next day...fires right up! Few hours later....dead. Diagnosis? Corroded negative battery lugs/terminal. Always, always start from the basics!
Thanks for your help!
