i blew my main fuse hooking up the battery. Now every time I replace the fuse and try to hook the battery up, the fuse blows. Why the hell is going on?

The electrical system on your bike has a dead short causing the fuse to blow.
Exactly which fuse is blowing?
Prior to the fuse blowing the first time, had you done any electrical work on the bike, why was your battery disconnected?

I was installing a new battery. No burnt , plugs look good, grounds and all contacts look good and tight.

Good idea, I'm sure it would help a lot of people out such as myself. So instead of being so sarcastic why don't you just do it.
I've never heard Bryan be sarcastic....ever.
He helps more people on this forum than I can shake a stick at....
Not only the battery leads, but any other accessories that might have been hooked to the battery. I have so much crap hooked to my terminals, that I wrap them with a zip tie before undoing the terminal screw, just to avoid getting them mixed up. I really need one of those fancy gadgets that fallenarch uses to distribute power.
Sounds like you need to hand around here more and get to know some of our contributing members :-) .On another note, can you post a pic of your under seat area and all the things(if any) hooked to the battery?

Settle down. You need help, you're not going to get it by being snarky....
You either have the terminals backwards or there's a dead short.

Ogbigboybusa, our esteemed member,C10 aka Bryan actually said he WAS NOT calling anyone a 'dummy', merely referencing a series of educational publications with that description, it was never an insult or intended to be.

I'm in need.. I have a 2001 Hayabusa gen 1 that I had to take the engine off and rebuild the bottom end. Before removing the engine the bike would start up and shut off and start right back up cold or hot with no issues. After the rebuild I placed engine back up on the frame and hooked all wires and connecters up and in the right spots but I have no power. When I hook the battery up I only get the neutral light and oil light on with the key out of the ignition and when the key is in and turned on still does it nothing changes. I've checked all my fuses and wires, looks like everything is ok but like I said I get nothing. Not even power to the dash to tell me if there's a code it's throwing. Plz help I'm stumped for the most part. I have a picture and video of what it's doing

Do you have a digital volt meter ?
it’s impossible to diagnose your fault over the internet.
I suggest you call a mobile auto electrical wizard for a solution to your problem…
There are so many possibilities and with so little info you really need someone right there with your bike to start checking stuff.

You underestimate my wizard skills . Every day I have to walk some low end fire alarm tech through basic meter use .
Being 1 of only two Master Techs in Texas in our company we get calls lol
So … where’s the video?
