Blowing Running Light Fuse!!!?

My 2000 UC has started blowing the fuse for the headlamps and rear running lamps. Anywhere I should check other than the obvious checking for bare or cut wires? Thanks for your input.

inside the rear fender, esp if the bike is lowered,

the tire can chew up the wiring

Check behind the headlight. I had a similar problem with my RKC. Running lights and tail light. Wire behind headlamp frayed on the steering head from turning side to side.
