Hello, I am having some difficulties starting my buell. Since ive purchased the bike it has always clicked a few time before turning over. One time before it wouldnt start, so I disconnected the ground from the battery and cleaned the little corosion. that seemed to help for about a month, untill now. Everytime i go to fire it up, all guages sweep like normal, but the bike just clicks. I am able to pop start the bike, and it runs like a champ. Does this sound like the starter is bad? or could it be a ground cable coroded elsewhere?
 
I just bought the bike 2 months ago, and the previous owner told me battery was new. He even have the box sitting in his garage. Im going to throw it on the trickle charge tomorrow and see if that helps.
 
Previous owner bought a battery that was not sufficiently charged. There, I gave him an out.

Or bought a battery with too low CCA. Another out. Get a load test done on the battery, it needs close to 200 CCA.

Clock resets? Low battery or loose connection.

Click from left "fuse" box? Relays are working, battery is too low to click the solenoid. (Or look at the thick green wire underneath it and check the insulation)

Click from lower right side? Relays are working and supplying the solenoid but not enough power to turn it.
