CB popped after kill switch use

[SoleX]

Took the bike out for a spin ... just tuned the carbs so i figured i would check the sparkplugs for color along the way. Doing about 45 mph i used the kill switch to shut down the engine and coast to a stop for the inspection. When hitting the ignition switcha bit later i got no power ... it seemed the 10 amp CB to the coils had popped (see photo for wiring setup). Any idea why de CB popped?

Inrush current to the coils. The CB might be marginal.

replaced 10 amps with a 15 amp CB ... works fine

Not the first recently to use a larger fuse after the factory sized one blew.

Interesting thread on today's fuses.
