Yesterday, I started prepping the bike for a little ride and bike wouldn't start. Had some power (i.e., lights went on, gages swept), starter wouldn't turn; did hear some clicking from underneath (starter solenoid?). Heard buzzing from General Relay; after research on the DML, figured that was it. Found suitable replacement at Napa (P/N AR274, for those interested). Installed and still nothing.

Battery charger says the batt is good. Fuses are good (even the 40-A up front). I'm off to Schuck's to buy a multitester now.

Any thoughts on where to start looking?
