Default Bike wont start!!!!

I was tinkering with the bike and was relocating all the wires under the tank.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; Well now the bike wont start.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; I unplugged the speedo and the front turn signals but I know that wasnt the issue cause I backed the bike up in the garage and had it started.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; So my question is why wont the bike start now.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; It turns over but wont fire up.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;Any info would be appreciated.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; And&nbsp\\;the bike is a 2007 1200 N
&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;
Thanks, Mike.....

Sounds as though your wiring is the problem. I would look at all of the wiring your worked with and see if any of the pins in the connectors have dislodged themselves. Look carefully in each connector you might have disconnected. Let me know if you find the problem or need more help.

Does it have the &nbsp\\;security system.&nbsp\\; If it does, take the fob and walk at least 25 feet away for 5 min.&nbsp\\; This will let the system reset.&nbsp\\; Then come back to the bike and retry it.&nbsp\\; Saw this happen a few weeks ago
