Electrical issue help
Just finished putting apes on my '14 SGS. Put most of it back together enough to verify my wiring but when I turn the ignition switch I get nothing but the click and buzz from the fuel pump, no lights nothing. Battery and all fuses are good and I looked for any pinched wires and found nothing. I have done bars before and never seen anything like it. Any experts have any helpful ideas?

you will get fuel pump but no start if your alarm fob is not registering...take the bike off the jiffy stand and see if the alarm goes off.
lights could be another problem all together
( fuses good?- can you meter power on the HOT and COLD side of each fuse?) a visual check is not always sufficient
and for bonus points - DID you use an alignment tool on your ignition switch???

Unfortunately this is a regular question after wiring bars! If they worked before you started you need to very carefully go back over everything you've done. A wiring diagram will help you identify the wires that affect those things that don't work, which is a starting point.
Electrical problems are often mechanical - in other words things like poor connection, wrong connection, damaged wire, poor ground, etc.
