Installing new bars on my Street Glide. Got everything hooked up, started bike. It ran for about a minute, then I lost all electrical power. Bike shut down and now it is dead. Fuse is fine, battery is fine. What the hell? What should I be looking for?

I mean all electrical power. it's as if I have no battery. turn on the ignition, and nothing happens.
