Clear the codes then check to see if they come back after starting. The codes there because you disconnected plugs during installation. If everything is connected back they will disappear. If not then you have to see what the code is for.

P0463h not in my list
U0156h lost Comm with Speedo
Bcm
B2116h fuel pump output open
U0156h Lost comm with Speedo

just clear them. If it's still a problem they will come back. See my edit above on what they are for. You listed the same code twice under BCM and ECM

Pretty much guessing there are (1) bad connections, (2) bare wires/shorts, or (3) incorrect connections. Re-trace your steps, check all the wires/harnesses & ensure it's all 100%.

Very common.

Those codes just mean you either turned the bike in during the install, connected the main fuse back in, or reattached the battery.

Basically, the bike was looking for components that you had disconnected and saved the error codes.
