Won't start

[sherm]

Totally dead. Been working fine. Rode it yesterday. This afternoon, turn key on, no lights anywhere. Acts like blown main fuse. Checked all fuses, they look good. Batter has plenty of voltage. Run switch on. Kickstand up. Just totally dead. Any ideas?

Bad connection on either end of the earth lead from the battery or main battery+ lead. Clean all the connectins with sand paper and put a small amount of grease on when you dothem back up Different metals - Lead battery connection onto brass terminal onto copper wire/ brass terminal onto steel frame= Corrosion and zero current .
Are you really in Oregon?

I live in Arizona. Still use Oregon cell phone. I'm pretty bike savvy, but it's hard to trace wires with all the plastic.

Has it got any voltage at the main fuse and fuse box?

Multimeter and work your way round from the battery.

If it is utterly and totally dead and fuses ok, how about ignition switch?

What bike is it? Year and model. Does it have an alarm/immobiliser? I'd be thinking like the others battery, ignition switch and connector. Connection at the starter relay too. On a lot of bike the power for everything comes through the connections at the starter relay. If it has an alarm/immobiliser that could have died.
