AnswerSorry i didnt get back to you sooner, I had a family emergency.
If you dont have any power to the starter switch or power going away from the starter switch then you need to start there. You need power going to the starter relay. WHat you are going to have to do is go backwards from the starter switch to the ignition switchand see where the short is.
Good luck and happy riding
