Default 07 Roadking Fuel Pressure Issue

Having a fuel pressure issue with my Roadking and I think it could be the check valve. Bike ran fine last week when parked. Wouldn’t fire today. Sprayed a bit of gas in the intake and it fired off so I started focusing on fuel. Removed fuel line going to injectors and had no pressure there. I could hear the pump run and shut off when I first turn the ignition switch. I can press on the check valve and it has a good bit of pressure but when I reconnect the fuel line it will not flow out of the hose. I removed the regulator and made sure the fuel pump was pumping. Regulator isn’t bypassing.

I can blow through the regulator and check valve when the hose is connected but as soon as the fuel pump build pressure it seems to close.

Replace the the check valve or is there another issue here?
