That'll learn me.
Won't be doing that again.
So I washed the bike and now it won't fire.
I have spark (only checked one plug)
The plug was wet when pulled and the garage smells of fuel
There is fuel returning to the tank. Lifted the lid and had a look while cranking.
Lights all work.
Fuses checked. Damn. Fuses checked and replaced. (Thanks Rick)
Kill switch was a bit dodgy so I removed it, de-oxed it, gave it a twiddle and all good now.
Horn works.
Brake lights work.
Removed coils and cleaned connections.
Checked earth to gearbox and starter.
What have I missed?
