Need more info to help. Did you check the kill switch on the right side grip?

Sounds like the tip over switch. Like Oss said cycle the key.

Kick stand up, kill switch set at run. In neutral, still nothing when starter button is pressed

What does that mean, it won't start ? Does the starter work, or, not ?
Regardless, the fellas covered it.
Its either the tilt switch [ recycle key] or kill switch [ make sure its off].
Or, see if it will start with clutch lever pulled in.

Maybe it's just a coincidence that this happened after the tip over. Have you done a clean up of the starter switch ? If not I would do that next. Be careful not to lose any of the little springs and screws. If you haven't done it before I think there is a write up in shoptalk or in the tech section about it.

can't hurt to check battery connections to make sure completely tight and not loose.

Have you turned the key off, waited a few seconds and turned the key back on You really dont want to know how I learned this  The good thing is you did not describe hearing a THUNK of stripped starter gears ! (dreaded but rare hydrolock) The only thing I can think of otherwise is maybe the connection on the kickstand tip over sensor came loose Are there any loose wires under there? which side did it fall over onto ? That may give us an idea Also maybe we have a member near cincinatti or columbus where you are who can come over

I am assuming you mean the instrument lights dim. The headlight should go out when the start button is pushed. If it does not go out, then there is definitely a problem with start switch. I have heard of the bank angle sensor getting stuck when bike was dropped. If everything else checks OK, then a few light taps on the angle sensor might solve the problem.

Didn't say how much or how long the bike was tipped. May be a good idea to pull the plugs and try to turn it over just in case.
Surely the key was turned off and on again.
