Default Hit the start switch and bike died (while running)

I hit the starter switch by accident, I was checking the turn signals while sitting on the bike and was turned around. I THOUGHT I hit the right switch...but NOT. I hit the starter, no noise, no nothing, bike just stopped running and wont do nothin',but I have horn, brake lights but nothing else. No engine light, fuel pump start-up, nuetral light or anything WTF OVER!!!

I checked all fuses, and they are good. I even blew out any (what may remain) water with the leaf blower. I'm goin' to wait a bit and see what happens. BUt I dont want to go the the dealer, It is under warranty, but how could it just "die" like that???? Friggin electronics[:@]

Any one?? any ideas? whaddya all out RIDIN' or somethin"[&:] I was SUPPOSED to be[:@]

Bump...AND were's all the smart guys??? I think I have it narrowed down to the system relay, or maybe the starter relay. I'll get both tomorrow, if not...off to the shop. I don't wanna screw it up more than it is[&:]

Check the fuses again, and if you have a tester is better... But I'm pretty sure the problem is the relay...
