well this is a great way to start  I was rushing to install a new battery in the evening and hooked it up wrong  neg to pos you get the point  now it wont turn over  was hoping I blew a fuse but I checked the main and the others in the under seat box and they look good  any ideas or have you all dealt with this before  very embarrassing but got me to the forum 
 
well, it's really "IN" the battery chamber, mounted on top of the main relay... behind the batt.. (pull the batt out again, it's needed to reach the fuse).. they will pop when polarity is reversed.. good thing is... it protects the bike, and no permanent damage will have occurred.. we've seen it happen many times..
good luck...
