I dont have a whole lot of experience, and Im sure youve tried these, but I gotta ask....

1. Is the bike still in gear? Make sure the kickstand is raised, if not in nuetral, and the clutch pulled in

2. Is the killswitch in the "run" postion? (ok ok... I told you my knowledge is limited)

3. Any blown fuses?

thats all I got man :( sorry... good luck with it... it doesnt sound too serious if you get clicks. My bike also did that when the battery was dead... oooh... nother question

4. Is your battery charged? Is your battery good? mine clicks when the battery is dead.........

good luck, take care,

Chris

Bike in neutral
Killswitch is on
Havent checked the fuses
Battery I'm charging now..appears to be a crappy walmart battery now that I actually can see what kind it is..so that might be it...if it the battery ..that is great...a cheap fix.
