I have a 2009 vstar 950. When I used to turn the key on, I could hear something engraving before trying to start. Is this the fuel pump? Now, I don’t hear it engaging and the bike won’t crank.
Yes, kind of a whine noise? Most likely the fuel pump.
First give a good look over for any wires loose, corroded, whatever, then check the fuses. Hopefully you will find something simple like a bad fuse or connection.
Check near/at the battery for corrosion for sure. Batteries let off acidic gases that love to eat up copper wires.
Check all connections, unplug, check for corrosion, clean as necessary, plug back in...
You get the idea I'm sure.
Let us know what you find.
