I keep my v-rod muscle in the garage on a battery tender, I went to start it, and nothing happened, the security key lights up and the blinkers blink about 15 times before stopping, I get all the gauges, lit up, the horn, lights everything works. I carged my battery, and changed the battery in my fob, i get nothing, i bought it used and was not provided a pin for the security system. My instinct is leaning toward a problem with the security, I even put a new fuse in. My other thought is a bad solenoid
hold key fob until signals flash,check speedo for solid key light,then try...if it still does the same thing,battery could be too low(will cause this also)

Your alarm is on. If it's a HD alarm one long click turns it on and 2 short clicks turn it off.

A harley AGM battery are usaully good for three to five years the best thing to do is have the battery load tested.Now as far as your problem now depending on the batterys state of charge the solenoid will click or not.Because you store it alot you should keep a trickle charger on the battery
Testimonial: "Thanks for the advice, gives me a direction to pursue. Will have battery tested and hopefully that is all it is."

Sounds to me like you've got a security system problem. It's strange that you have power to the switch and fuses and then it stops. You do have power to the fuses don't you. You said you had continuity but you didn't say you had power. I've looked at the latest schmatic that I've got (1999-on) and I don't see anything that would stop everything from working on your bike. Now, Harley may have changed something and my schematic doesn't show it but I would think you would have something showing that the security system had everything locked out. Sorry I couldn't help.
Good Luck
