Fuses keep blowing out!

[CB360ty]

So last weekend I was installing a new brake light on my bike and I blew a couple of fuses. I replaced the fuses and kept messing with the light. Sure enough I blew the fuses again. Eventually I got the taillight how I wanted it and then went for a quick ride. I stopped at a gas station and turned the bike off. When I went to turn it on again I had no power because the fuses blew again. Then later on I am driving with a friend following me at night and he stopped me because the light went out. I replaced the fuse but every time I went to start the bike up they would blow out.

Im completly illiterate when it comes to electrical stuff, so Im calling on you guys for help.

I ride a cb360, 74 if thats of any use. The bike also seems to not idle as well either, it dies within like 20 seconds, this began to happen after I changed the taillight out.

Thanks in advance.

You may have more than one issue.
First thing to do it re-fit stock taillight and see if problem goes away.
If you refuse to do that, pay someone who does have at least a basic understanding of motocycle electrical systems.

retrace all your wires, there may be an exposed wire somewhere causing it to short and blow the fuses.
