There is a possibility that you have air in the fuel line.
Perhaps jumpering the fuel pump while pushing the presta valve on the injector fuel rail will bleed the air out.
If that is the issue.
When you crank it over does it even fire??? sputter??
The first thing to do is Spray some starter fluid into the intake while cranking to see if it fires.
Then you will know for sure if it is a fuel issue.
Don't get carried away with the starter fluid.
If it does not fire on the starting fluid then you need to test for spark at the plugs.

Thanks for the ideas.
The relay is working. I hooked a very thin wire to the switched side of the relay and to a meter and it shows 12v when I try to start (but not rest of the time so I am sure it is the correct pin)
Not even a single cough when cranking.
I am hesitant to take the cap off the presta valve since I have read that you can't re-use an old cap once you take it off and I don't have another cap.
Where would be the best place to squirt a little starter fluid? Pull out the air cleaner tray maybe?
Thanks again for all the help. This is a very good forum!
