Check your starter solenoid . The main fuse is part of the starter solenoid and power goes directly from the battery to the solenoid. If there is a short from the main fuse wire to the solenoid that may be powering the bike . Next time you want to turn off the bike try unplugging the four prong plug to the solenoid . Look for the short there a new solenoid would run about $100 from Honda. The problem will either be a melted solenoid or a melted plug or both.
Testimonial: "Your solutions were not correct but very helpful in trouble shooting the problem. Both the starter solenoid and the ignition switch tested good. "

Hi Some bikes have a vacuum petcock. Whenever the bike started up the petcock opened itself up and whenever it shut down, the petcock shut down too. Check to see if the petcock is set to on. Check to see if the fuel line is hooked up. Check to see if you have a vacuum line, and if it's hooked up. Check to see if the gas tank were possible vacuum locking due to a clogged vent. Alternately haul off the carbs and clean them out. Check to see if the fuel filter is clogged. Also after cleaning the carb and refitting it you will need to add vacuum to that fitting. It is a safety devise to shut the fuel off to the carb. In case the rider forgets a small hand vacuum pump from harbor freight will do the job just fine
