the bike: 2000 R1100RT, 110K miles with new HES installed at ~ 80K
the Gremlin: switched on the ignition, raised the side stand and hit the starter button - Nothing! Looking more closely I realized that no lights were coming on, the fuel pump was silent, the RID was black and no power to the windshield. Interestingly, with the ignition switched off the clock displays, though it goes blank and then resets to 0000 each time the ignition is switched on and off.
All fuses check out. The battery is charged to 13.1v. The clutch lever cutoff switch was removed long ago. The side stand cutoff switch is still in place.
Other electrical mods over the years: Techlusion unit in line with the O2 sensor, headlight high beam switch on a relay, Kissan Signal Minder in place of stock turn signal unit, flashing LEDs tapped into the rear brake light circuit.
Any and all input is welcomed. (I'll start with the ignition switch though I fear this may be something far worse)
