replaced the 15 with a quality fuse (that solved a few previous problems) and the horn works but still no headlamps or tail lights

just to recap: the only problems are no headlights and no tail lights - everything else is working

well, most of the problems were because i didn't charge the battery fully.. and i'm down to a single problem which is no headlights is that the 20a fuse located under the right rear cover do i have to remove that cover to get to it which would probably entail removing the metal rack on the tail as well wish there were an easier way to reach a seemingly important fuse regarding my current scooter satisfaction level: about a 6.5 out of ten and getting better (i like it - it is fun - and it is working) not getting the gas milage i was hoping for and i think it needs a tuneup/adjustment it backfires a little upon deceleration from 50+ mph (thinking timing of some sort) as usual - thanks for all your help:

wow
those chinese blade fuses suck i've been measuring opposing voltages on either end of the 15A fuse saying to myself "am i really seeing this" thanks so much again for the charging and problem location help i'm buying: - a replacement battery at a much higher ampere production than the factory (always keeping one charged and taking it with me on the long trip(s) - a handful of good fuses (question re: fuse rating: 12V i assume - appropriate amperage but fast or slow blo? .. probably fast?) - a charger - jumper cables
next in line: the bike needs a tuneup but one quick question: does the bike have a charging system in it?
all said - i like it

so after 140 brand new (fun) miles here are the symptoms: no headlights, no turn signals, no start.. something is draining the battery i think so, i'm in the learning how to troubleshoot scooters mode currently going to be charging the battery and tightening some hardware tomorrow any suggestions would be greatly appreciated i have some nice pics of uncrating and stuff the bike took a pretty nice jolt in the crate during the shipping process (so maybe some loose connections and all)
