my directional tail light fuse kept blowing and my front brake hydrolic line seems to be the problem it is getting smoking hot when the ignition is on how is this possible?

Without digging through the wiring diagram, you have a short somewhere, most likely under the flyscreen, that is grounding through the brake line.

Given your bikes age, I would start with the ign switch, which may be shorting internally.
