Started up the bike, went 10 feet, it died. Fuel pump won't come on, with kill switch engaged the gauges are on but when the kill switch is on run the gauges go off. Headlights come on in reverse, when the clutch is engaged the high beam light is on but only the low beam is actually on. When you flip the highbeam switch on the gauge shows only the lowbeam is on. I'm lost as to what has happened. Fuses are fine, checked them, not sure about the diodes.
 
gonna point out the obvious there's some sort of electrical issue check your wiring harness make sure it isn't shorted out somewhere
 
You done any mods or work on it lately, or have you been riding and it just did this out of the blue?
 
all kinds of crazy seemingly unrelated electrical sh*t outta the blue, my first check would be grounds!
 
your bike was just put back together from your wreck right? did you fix it or have it done by a shop?
 
The bike was torn down motor and all after the wreck and put back together by myself. It has been running and I have been riding it for several weeeks now working out all the little probelms I was having. I came home last night, pushed it out of the basement garage, got on and cranked it, it ran fine then I started down the hill of my driveway and it died and started doing this. The last thing I messed with was the throttle assembly on the handle bars. The throttle was sticking in certain positions but I did that several days ago and it ran fine till now.
 
definitely check the harness where it's strapped to the front of the frame. I had wires rubbing in there which cause some crazy issues...
 
Well, before I left for work I hooked the battery back up. I left it unplugged last night, and everything seemed to work right and it would turn over but the fuel pump would never come on.
