Why wont the bike start after washing it?

Hey there.

I just washed my Triumph Bonneville by hand, using a bucket of water and a cloth. No hosing involved. I rode it out of the garage no problems. Now, after washing, I cant turn it over. All the electrics start up, both lights on the speedo come on, I get that whirring sound, I push the starter button and...nothing! :mad:

Really annoying. I've had the bike since new in 2008 and never had this problem. I don't service the bike myself as I've no idea how to apart from basic pre ride check! The battery is about 3 months old by the way.

So... what have I done wrong? And how do I make it right?

Cheers in advance.
