Have you checked the main fuse?

Yes, check the fuse. under the seat, right side.

The power from the relay only goes to the starter... not the rest of the bike.
You may have other problems too.

The connections under the tank can come loose. They don't have to be dangling to not be connected. Corrosion is something to consider.
I know how unlikely it is, but you can check it out and know what it isn't.

Ok so I did check the fuses and I unwrapped the wiring harness because I don't understand why this is happening I thought I'd figure it out by now. Any way I have one red wire coming from the starter solenoid, then it splits into two reds and both go to one side of my relay then one comes out goes to starter switch then the other one goes to another relay I believe but then the power goes to everything from there. My problem is unless I connect the power pin to the pin that goes to the starter on the relay I have no power to anything connect those and I get power to everything except the coil and my push start. Power goes into the relay but won't come out idk why also it's a new relay and I have two other ones that are the same and they all do the same thing

Ok I figured out what happened the relay and the fuse connector got switched up which makes me feel so dumb for not seeing it I bought the bike from my cousin and told him what was happening when I first started working on it . Well he came to help me figure it out and he must have put the relay in the wrong spot and I had been so frustrated at that point I didn't notice until right now man I feel dumb sorry for wasting your time guys I really appreciate the responses though, thank you sometimes all you need to solve a problem is to just step away from the problem and just not think about it for a while anyway thanks guys
