I've done a bit of searching around on these forums and found a bunch of helpful information, but nothing quite fits my situation exactly.

I just got this bike and the headlights did not work at all. No light on the dash for the brights when I tried to click them on, so I replaced the relay with one from oreilys. That worked perfect when at idle/warming the bike up. I took it down the road to the gas station and it had died by the time I got there. I swapped relays from the starter circuit and headlight to confirm it died, it did. So I repeated the same process with basically the exact same results.

I'm thinking there is a short somewhere. Does anyone have any pointers on where I should start looking?

Thank you in advance.

Bike is a 2008 250r
