For some reason I'm not getting much power to my bike. I have a brand new battery and new fuses. The front light is very dim and the turn signals and horn do not work. Could this be the wiring or what else could be causing this?

Thanks

Yes I do have the right battery and it is fully charged. I went to Autozone and got the battery about 3 days ago and I just had it fully charged there today.

Use a multimeter and check the resistance between the negative post of the battery and the frame, then between the negative post of the battery and the engine, you may have a bad ground connection.
