My front brake lever has taken over my motorcycle!

Concise description:
* Cluster and starter only gets power when I use the front brake lever!
* Brake light works, but tail running light does not. Headlight (at least the low-beam) works.
* Recently rewired the OEM taillight, since the previous owner had cut the connectors from the harness to use an integrated taillight.
* Also removed crappy blinker wiring, wiring for a flip up license plate, and a crappy left handlebar control cluster. No blinkers for the moment.

Any ideas on where I should start to address this? I've tried redoing my work on the taillight, and undoing the taillight entirely, but no improvement. Plus, it worked just fine on Sunday...
