Does yours have an alarm? Does it flash the indicators or toot the horn at all? It might be one of these that are faulty, and maybe the alarm tries to indicate that it is arming (by horn/flashers) and pop goes the fuse.

If it's an LED tail light, LEDs need to be wired the right way round and it might be this that is causing the problem. Normal bulbs don't matter.

If it was me, I would:

1. Get a load of spare fuses
2. Start the bike and watch for when it pops - try the brake light and indicators.
3. If it starts and it's still ok, switch it off and watch for it to pop - might be the alarm.
4. If it's still ok, try putting it on the steering lock or wiggling the bars around as it could be a loose wire/connector.

Hope this helps,
