Riding today, turned on the headlights then bike died and won't restart.

It turns over but doesn't seem to catch the fuel.

Checked the fuses and found this in the headlight fuse slot. The metal seems intact but the plastic is well melted.

I'm going to change the fuse tomorrow but surely a blown headlight fuse wouldn't prevent starting? I'm thinking the fuse allowed current past and something else has blown? Any suggestions??
