Need help.

I am winterizing my newly purchased used 08 ninja.
Had hesitation at 4-5k RPM on 25-50% throttle and sometimes would stall when given 100% throttle off of idle.
From what I read online, likely had dirty carbs so took it out and cleaned it.

So I was all excited and everything putting it back into the bike to test how the carbs run after to find that the entire electrical system does not work when turned ignition to the on position. Not getting any light on the dash 98%. I tried over and over random things, looked at the fuse box and nothing.
On 2 random occasions, when key turned to 'on' the dash light/neutral/engine light appeared but when i hit the ignition button, everything dies and I revert to a state of nervous breakdown where the electrical system does not turn on anymore for a unforseen period of time no matter what I do.

Battery was on a tender since it was removed and checked to be > 12 V.
Didnt touch the electrical system, except disconnecting fairing signal lights, tank fuel gauge sensor and front headlights.

Anyone have experience with this and have any suggestions on whats my next step?
