Default Bike wont start?

So last night I washed my bike and changed the headlight bulbs and after I changed the bulbs the bike wont start. The gauge lights will come on and the turn signals will work but the headlights and the high beam light on the gauge wont come on. When you push the start button nothing happens theres no clicking noise or anything. I checked my wires and I didnt see anything obvious so any suggestions? Bike is a 2005 CBR 1000 Repsol.

did you get water up in places that a normal rain wouldn't? check for blown fuses and wet relays. if those are good, please be more specific as to what the bike does as it wont start. for example, cranks or wont crank, power or no power, etc.

Check the plugs to the guages. Working that close to them, you might have jostled one.
The CDI gets signals from them, so it might be confused.

Not sure if you were saying the headlights or the headlight indicator wasn't working.
As demon said, check the fuses, as well. If it's like mine (an F3), the main fuse is located in
the starter-relay housing. If you're getting power to the guages and signals, though,
it shouldn't be that one.

The other fuses, are probably up in the fairing by the forks, Not positive on the 1000rr, though.

After checking the fuses and the connectors, it starts getting wierd, so I'm hoping that, that's where the issue is.
