    Hey guys and girls new here but have read alot of post.

    So I have a 2002 VFR800 completely stick it has about 2500 miles on it. I rode out to San Antonio and rode the twisted ssister which is about 600 miles round trip. On my way home at about 85 mph my bike shut off and displayed the typical bank sensor, kick stand senor issues. Got it home tore the front fairing off and tried to bypass the sensor from green wire to red wire, I did something terribly wrong. Prior to trying the bypass the bike would turn over but no priming from the fuel pump and no ignition of the motor. After bypass attempt it doesn't even turn over the lights turn off and that's all no click from the solenoids nothing.......what have I done? Please help I NEED TOO RIDE LOL

    Also
    I'm not sure if the wiring recall has been done.....I bought the bike about two months ago.*
    Battery and connections are good
    Fuses are good
    I have reversed everything I did and still no change motor still won't turn over.

    I've never heard of the "typical bank angle sensor, kick stand sensor issues. " from the VFR. in any case, here is a simple wiring schematic. Did you check both 30 amp fuses next to the battery and the fuses in the fuse box under the fairing right of the instrument cluster?

    Well from other posts it's seems like the bank angle sensor goes bad.....here is story I took a trip about 500 miles and on my trip home at about 85 mph the motor shut off I turned the key off then back on and it started back up....rode about 20 miles it did it again so I repeated to turn off and start which it did then it started happening more frequently during a 20 minute session. Then finally would not turn on at all the symptoms were the fuel pump wouldn't initially prime or prime at all during the motor turning over. I finally got it home with a truck and about two days later the bike started like there always no issues expect the problem happened much sooner as in 30 minutes of run time. so I assumed bank angle sensor so I bypassed it by jumping a wire from the positive to the negative after thay the bike wouldn't turn over at all. You hit the starter Hutton and a solenoid clicked and the lights dimmed that's all. Which is where I am now

    That sounds more like the typical bad engine kill switch issue. The kill switch is relatively easy to take apart. Check for corrosion and melted stuff.
