    I simply removed headlight bezel. Now the indicators horn and brake light fail to work. Any suggestions please. Fuses appear in tact.

    At first it was the LH indicator that failed. I swopped the bulbs around. Then both failed, with the rear ones still working. Next time I tried none were working. So I checked around the bike. Horn and brake light were out too.

    Sounds like a fuse, they may not look blow they may be broken. All these are on the same circuit so its connectors, fuse, or broken wire, or corrosion.

    Yes fuse indeed. But the fuse blew because of the indicators. The two contacts inside the indicator body were touching each other when the bulb was replaced. A bit of fiddling with the contactor's soon sorted it. Special thanks to a neighbour who is an electrical engineer and very methodical in finding the problem.
