Kill switch on?
 
what year 550?

What did you use for the mechcanical advance. What dyna s model (ones for different ignition supplier).
 
Is the rotor free to advance? When I installed mine the included spacer was too thick and would not allow the rotor to advance when the crank bolt was tightened down. I ended up sanding about 0.7mm off the top of the rotor and then it was free to advance. How did you set up your timing? My install, and others I have heard of, were very near the ends of the slots when the timing was right.

fitting a dyna s does not involve tampering with the starting circuit. you must have an issue elsewhere. try all the fuses for a start

yeah all the fuses appeared to be good, i noticed there to be an extra plug in connector not plugged into anything but the only thing i did away with was the CDI which was the large green plug but close to it coming off the main wiring harness is a white 4 plug connector but only has 3 wires to it and its not plugged into anything, i dont remember if it was plugged into anything but i have nothing else it could plug into either thats the only thing not hooked up to something
 
Good call, Agemax. When I see "turn over", I always think "start", since I've seen so many people say "it will crank but it won't turn over".

I think the connector you're talking about is the sig gen connector, which you also removed. How did you hook up the Dyna red wire?
 
the power wire (red) i ran it straight up to the orange wires on the coil harness plugs

Yep, that's the sig gen connector. You'll no longer use it.

ok, yeah that makes sense cuz the original isnt sitting on my work bench lol its sitting under the bike as i just had removed it and wasnt paying attention that i just sat it under
 
ok, check the ground wire on the starter solenoid is good. then disconnect the yellow/green wire on the solenoid and touch it on battery positive,(you may need to use a longer bit of cable to reach). if the starter spins then the solenoid is good.
check your ignition switch connection is good then check the wires to and from the r/h bar switch where the kill switch and starter button is.
