Exclamation Electrical Issues

I have a 2016 Ultra Limited. I dumped the bike on a stone covered road. Since it went down I keep blowing the 5 amp battery fuse with the ignition off. Any help would be appreciated.

Any obvious damage to the bike? Is that the power for the alarm?

Hope you're OK.
Battery fuse power goes to both grips R/O wire. If it hit hard on a grip I guess you could pull the fairing and unplug the connector to see if that's the problem. It powers the siren, ECM, Volt Meter and Fuel gauge.

Check the fenders, the fender tip lights are powered off of the O/W wire as well.

Fender tip is powered off the BE wire from the BCM. It does change color at the Fender tip connector.

It's hard to keep up with all the changes. I hope the OP comes back to let us know what the problem was
