Default Wife bought a new bike... Uh oh no start!

Hey guys. I'm new here but my wife just bought an 06 CBR600RR. Well it won't start. I pulled the fairings off checked all fuses and they are fine. Have power at turn of key and fuel pump primes. Also when starter button is depressed I can hear the starter relay click but nothing happens. I thought it might be the starter so I pulled the starter and bench tested it and it spins. I do not know where else to go with it. I thought maybe lean angle sensor but then the fuel pump wouldn't have primed. I'm at a loss here and I am definitely not good with the wiring portion of the bike building!
Any advice would be great!
Tia

You tested the battery, right?

Did it start before? Maybe check the kickstand switch, or the clutch switch, or maybe the kill switch on the clip on above the start button.

I'm assuming the kill switch is good due to the fact that when the starter button is depressed the starter relay clicks, I'm also going to gues it is ok due to the fuel pump priming. It was bought in a non running condition, kickstand switch might be a possibility I would think. Would the starter relay engage if the side stand switch was bad? I thought the side stand switch cut voltage to the ignition system when the circuit was broken?

Side stand switch and BAS should all work that way.

Did you check the clutch switch? The fuel pump will still prime even if it isn't hooked up, but it will not start. I'm not sure if the relay will still pull or not


Did you check the main fuses on the starter relay? You should see if you're getting power on the other side of the relay witouth the starter hooked up when you press the starter button.....
