OK so I changed the rectifier I changed the stator... This problem recently arose I thought at first it was because of the stator/RR so yeah.... Anyways when I try to start it the bike won't turn over... Of course I can push start it... But if I try to just start it click click click.... The weird thing is that sometimes it will start like yesterday rode it around for a bit and started up like a champ... It's weird some times it starts sometimes it doesn't and all I hear is that clicking noise... The battery is good had it tested.. Stator had been changed rectifier has been changed.... I was thinking it was a wiring issue but idk I checked the fuses they look OK so idk what it could be .... So please any ideas would be a great help!!

Replace starter relay,solenoid have nothing to do with 'clicking',check tip off sensor as well,make sure there's no loose wires, (ground etc) check main fuse (the one in solenoid)

When you had stator issue it probably drain out batt,what means not enough charge-not enough power in harness then it fu*ked up your regulator,basically saying when stator is faulty it doesnt generate enough power or doesnt generate it at all,generated power goes to regulator which (as the name saying:) regulating all generated power to every single electrical unit,in proper amounts all over the bike,there are some bits such as solenoid,starter relay,fuel pump relay etc where the power is directed by regulator in first point.

Your relay has been burned or its just getting well worn copper bits inside-that may be the reason why somtimes it starts sometimes it doesnt.



As I said,replace relay,and check for loose wires and connectors.

Update us how it goes bud
Good luck

True,but battery can be charged,relay still be clicking,coils inside can be ok but if armature and contacts are worn or burn it wont let enough power to go trough-but it will still click,either way is it in low-power signal operated circiuit or where several circuits must be controlled by one signal.Relays in here are connected with ECU-which partially have a control,if the relay is faulty-it can even give enough power to go trough but ECU wont let you to start the engine on button.

I do not dissagree with you :) It can be what you saying :)

Im only suggesting my idea what to check-and I had similar problem a while ago and my bad point was relay :)
