When you say turn over do you mean start and run or try start?

I mean it won't run it will make the starting sound but will not start when I sprayed starting fluid in it before fuel pump change it started but did not stay on. Do u think it is blown up

Might be bad gas and/or gummed up injectors?

Pull the spark plugs and see if they function. If they look good I would focus on fuel system.

Ok will pull plugs in morning.also what about red oil light blinking when I put key in on position and ok I drained all old fuel before I put on new pump. how should I go about cleaning injectors ? And what other thinga with fuel system should i look for ?

With just the key on, you will see the FI and oil symbols on the cluster, and the red light to the right will be flashing. This is indicating that there is low oil pressure, which makes sense since the engine isn't running. It should go away once the engine actually starts, but you aren't getting that far.

I would start by grabbing the service manual. It has a section in it that will tell you how to look up fault codes. This will let you know if the computer knows about any issues with the bike. It also has a section that guides you through troubleshooting problems, like the bike not starting.
