Yep, blew with it on/off so must have been on the "supply side".
I pulled the tank & unplugged the O/W to the coils to clean them up (the connectors on this bike are mostly in really good condition). At that point I tried a new fuse & it didn't blow so I knew it was above there somewhere. After looking around for a short at the coils the next logical place was the switchgear & the wire going down into the headlamp bucket....
