So after several hours of checking wires and searching for both a parasytic draw and a short I have narrowed it down to the brake light. The bike runs fine and holds a charge as long as I don't connect the brake light. If I connect the brake light with the bike off the LEDs come on...if I press the front or rear brake the lights go off and very dim flicker. If I start the bike the brake light comes on high (bright) and pressing either brake has no change in the intensity. after a few seconds the 10A fuse blows and the brake light flickers. same thing happens if the 10A fuse is removed...the brake light flickers when the bike is running.
any ideas? my next corse of action might be to unwrap the wiring harness and start to chase the wires back to see if there's a short somewhere...any other thoughts would be helpful becasue I'm going insane on this
