won't start??!!!!!
 
my bike won't start I took it apart for paint & powder. new monkey bars. I got the bike most of the way back together to the point where I can test my wiring job well every thing works but it won't start. when I hit the run button the fule pump starts and primes but when I hit the start button nothing it is in nutral alarm did go off afew times until I put a new battery in the fob . I don't know what to do. is there a way to buypass the start button to see if that is the problem. I hate electrical stuff. any ideas would help.

Did you have to disassemble any connectors with the wiring pins, etc. when you took the bars off? Could you have crossed a wire? Electrical crap sucks to chase down, but you're gonna have to go over everything you did.

I'm with Dawg. Take your time, think about everything you disconnected during the disassembly process. If your fuel pump's priming the problems doesn't sound as if it's in the "run" circuit. Sounds like the actual "start" circuit has no power. Could be the alarm cutting power to it, could be an open wire/connector/fuse. Nothing serious I bet...

I'm guessing you may have screwed up a pin location then if you took the connectors apart. Take your time and check every connection that you touched/took apart.
