Try changing the fuse, and replace it with the right fuse. Now, for the down side, you may have shorted out something. And, it could be a number of things. I would suggest taking it in to a shop and tell them to call you before making the repairs. Hence, get a understanding that you want an estimate before they make any repairs on this bike. I don't think that it is a big thing, but tracing wires and checking for shorts can be time consuming for a novice. Good luck.

Check the negative battery cable where it connects to ground.
The arc may have damaged the connection.
Also check the battery positive cable.
