Could be many things?
Sounds like your kill stops are out as you say you cant here the fuel pump. .
So key on kill stop on run (Does the fuel pump come on)?
Does it turn over?
Check the side stand switch.

few yes and no to this should get you on your way with what the problem is

Fuel pump connector is under infill panel / seat left hand side. Would take a look at this see if the waters got in! Believe there has been occurances of this in the past  :dontknow:.

Is there an alarm fitted?

I am willing to take a look as long as your not to far from Bromley, I am an ex-auto electrician if that helps.

Have had plenty of problems with my 08 running it in the wet. Had a new loom and regulator/rectifier fitted after the connector block burnt out due to water contamination. If your using yours in the wet you may want to consider using an electrical grease on all of the connectors as they are open to the elements (and easy to access). Not sure what grease to recommend, maybe someone else can help with that.
Hope you get it sorted without too much fuss mate
