Default 97 marauder having some issues...

Ok so my 97 vz800 keeps dying on me. First my tail light stops working, brake light work but tail light does not. Then if i turn my key to far forward like into the park position it blows the main fuse. Yesterday while riding it the bike just died while i was cruising down the freeway. i pull over and it wont do a thing the head light is on but pressing the switch i get nothing. shortly later i decide to give it a try and it fires right up i start to cruise home and it dies again this time it wont restart at all. all i get is nothing. then after getting a tow home i let the bike sit for a few hours then decide I'm going to go see if will start or anything. it fires right up. I have a new ignition switch on order but I'm think it might be something else and could use tips if anyone has any. thanks.
