Is your clutch switch working? Most bikes have a neutral and clutch switch, one or the other is required to be operating to start the engine.

It worked before.
It doesn't work now.
Only re-wired it in between.
Therefore something changed when it was rewired.
You said that you re-wired it.
Hence you should know what has changed.
Why don't you know?

Earth the following wires on the ecu - Green, Green with white trace, light green - job done none of the interlocks will have any effect then

Yep, that would have been my follow up thought. If there never has been a switch then it's likely that it's been completely bypassed
(starting in gear without clutch isn't as damaging in a car as it could be on a bike). In which case you might have 'tidied up' the
connection not realising it was actually needed.

yer, I didnt have a clue what went where before I rewired it, so I just did it as per the drawing for the bike, taking out the bits that were no
longer needed.
Thanks Andy, il give that a go when I get chance, hopefully that will solve it
