Default Bars finally instaled...but ???

Hi guys ...first thanks for all of you who help me thru the installation of the bar and the inner fairring... tought everything went well and it did. The only thing is once i put back the fuse in his place i tried up the buttons and it worked... so i pulled it out of the garage to take the pictures that you see below and then i tried to fire her up... no nose (fuel pump) and no start when pushing the button. Right there i tought to myself that i made a mistake in the wire assembly but looked it back andall seems to be in place. But you know the alarm system !!!! (sweet noise by the way (10 minutes) the red key with the lock stay on (steady) and now flashers not working ????? so my understanding is that there is something wrong with the security system... Did it reset ???? i checked the batterie in the FOB and it is good. I was so desapointed... does anything ring a bell to anybody regarding that problem ? Any way for the result (look) it is awsome and i am very happy with what i see (not whats happening) so again thx to all for your help and support ! Ill get better pictures shorthly but i wanted to share those

Maybe a wire got pinched somewhere or caused a short. Kind of odd that it works until you move it.

Maybe a re-set of the alarm system is in order, I would give that a try.

Nice bar and ride too. For the alarm, i always cut the battery with contact on to get rid of it... Is there something on the owner book?

Check the run/kill switch? Battery connections?
Although you drag me out of a warm garage into the snow, I ain't starting neither.
Nice looking bike. Good Luck!
