well i when on a 1200 mile trip to SD. my bike was running fine the entire time. next morning after i got home. i go to try and fire her up and the fuel pump wont prime.  here are the things that ive checked so far.

1. kill switch
2. fuse
3. connections to the fuel pump and fuse
4. wiring from the fuel pump and fuse
5. fuel pressure to make sure that it wasnt priming

i also tried turning it over to make sure that i could still turn over the bike and no problems with it turning over. all that i can think of now is that the fuel pump is bad (which ive hear of one going bad) or there is a break if the wiring that i cant fine?
