The bike has been sitting in my garage for about 1 year, started on a regular bases. I was going to take a picture of the mileage, but it only reads CHECK. I shorted the test port and nothing changes. I drove it about a 1/4 mile

 Kill switch, side stand switch, ignition fuse, or possibly battery voltage low?

You don't say if it was on a trickle charger (not that it would rule out a duff battery)? Starting it regularly is more likely to flatten the battery than add any charge to it.
