Default 2010 Superglide will not start

Got home from work tonight and my neighbor calls me over to help diagnose his non start on his 2010 Superglide. He has not started the bike in a few weeks. When you turn on the ignition the lights come on and the fuel pump is working. Lights are bright and horn is loud. no Crank at all. Checked battery terminals. They are clean and tight. Swapped out the starter relay with mine. Still no go...

Any help here would be great...

Dumb, but maybe it helps. Is the key turned all of the way to start? Is the engine on switch, on?

Just taking a shot here. Where is he storing the bike? Possible that some mice might have chewed some wiring?
Try swapping your battery with his if it is compatible?

No FOB. No alarm...

He stores his bike in a shed, stand alone garage.

Seams to me that it has to be a wire or fuse/relay. I really do not know where to go...

Before frying your brains, go for the easy. Try your battery in his.

Do the lights dim when you hit the starter switch? Or any clicking? Silence?

Absolutely nothing... Leaning towards a bad starter switch
