I assume the battery is STRONG! ?? Not just showing 12 Volts, but truly strong.
I know you checked all the safety cut out switches and kill switch ... but my advice is ... CHECK THEM AGAIN! (Clutch, side stand, kill)
So many times turns out to be a corroded contact point, loose connection or something silly like that.
Before spending the big money on a new ECU ... I would have let the Honda boys have a go. I assume your bike is OFF warranty? ... but in some cases Honda may do a "Good Will" repair for Free. Not often, but has happened if it's something odd.
I have no brilliant ideas beyond the rambling above. All the best!

The bike is at Honda! It's the 'Honda boys' who told me it was the ECU...
Trouble is I'm in Mexico and the 250L was never sold here. The Honda dealer my bike is at doesn't even have diagnostic equipment and they've been on the phone to Mexico City main dealer and they've said they have the equipment but only for Mexico model bikes... I.E we can plug it in but it won't read the codes for your bike anyway.
The thing with the kill switch and side stand switch is that the warning lights on the dash go out and the starter motor doesn't turn over when they're engaged. So, I know it isn't them.
