Default I Need a Miracle

Long story short, I have been riding my 02' F4i for 3yrs. now with no issues. I decided last month that I needed to sell her to come up with some extra cash for relocating.
I parked the bike in the garage for two days while I packed up the house. Came back to take the bike out and she wouldn't start, just turns over. I checked the battery, relays, plug connections, etc. and everything looked good. So I attempted to bypass the kickstand switch, nothing. Tried to bypass the tip sensor, nothing.
So I walked away from it for the night, came back the next day and the damn thing won't even crank over now. When I turn the ignition key on, the FI light doesn't come on at all.
I've checked the fuses. What am I missing. I have someone waiting to by this thing and I really need the cash for moving. Man this has been a tough week!
Beer is on me if anyone can give me an answer to help me fix this damn thing!

Blown fuse! I had checked once already but I guess some point during my troubleshooting I blew one. I woke up this morning and started over from scratch. Right off the back found a blown fuse! Problem solved.

I still had to pull the top triple and replace the ignition. Damn pink wire of death got me. I tried replacing the ignition diode mys3lf bit it didn't work, so I just bought a new ignition.
