Cam Install question, won't fire
Just finished cam, lifter, and pushrod install on my 09 streetglide. All are products from Fuel Moto. I would call them, but being a weekend, I thought I would ask here first.
Turns over after install but will not fire. Am wondering if this is a timing issue? On assembly, I set the two sprocket dots in line. Cam sprocket at 6 and crank at 12. Should both be at 12?
Both dots on the cams are in line directly across from eachother.
Advice or suggestions are welcomed.

Fuel line reconnected on the bottom of the tank? It's generally something stupid and overlooked.

Did you remember to put the plug wires back on? Gas in tank?
Plug in the connector to the left of the air filter?
Check your crank senor connection under the bike. Mine had water in it and the bike wouldn't start.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. Have checked plug wires, twice. AC plug is plugged in. Will have to check crank sensor. Tank was never off so that shouldn't be it. As you say, it probably is something stupid. Just have to figure it out.
