took the handlebar switch apart last night and cleaned it out.
both fuses were fine(checked them with a multimeter to be sure).
Since you can start the bike with a screw driver, then the connection from the relay to the starter and to ground is okay. You also have +12 on the relay, so forget about that.
What is missing is the circuit on the B/W and Y/B wires. Those 2 wires plus a B wire are in a 3 wire connector to the relay. Those 2 wires do what your screw driver does.
You say that you hear nothing, right? No clicks? That means that the Decompression Solenoid isn't working either. Did you try this with the side stand down and clutch lever pulled in, or with the side stand up and clutch lever pulled in?
You do have a green nuetral light, right? Is the little blue wire below the clutch lever on the right rear side of the engine case okay? That wire goes up under the tank, and since you pulled out the airbox, I'd also look at that because it was behind the airbox.
The Y/B wire comes from the Decompression Module which is right above the carb under the seat. That is where I would start and work backwards. What puts power on the Y/B wire to energize the starter relay is the Y/G wire (notice different color) which comes from the starter button....and also goes through the clutch lever switch. Check the connector on the clutch lever. If you need to, pull the connector off and put a small jumper across that and check again.
If you still can't get it to start,
pull the tank. Then go into the Technical Corner and get the electrical schematics. That is what I am looking at now. Something has happened to either the positive supply side to the Decompression module, or to B/W negative ground side which goes through the side stand relay, side stand switch, and the side stand diode. Since the fuses are okay, you have a disconnected wire somewhere.
