Hey guys and girls.
(I'll preface this with saying I have very limited mechanical knowledge, and definitely no electric start knowledge).
Long story short, bike was running fine. No real problems.. I fitted a rear rack and to do so had to disconnect the rear indicators. So I put everything back in place, tested indicators, worked fine.. then pressed e-start and 'click', tried again 'click'... tried again and it started.
I say 'click', the sound wasn't coming from the engine, was something in the starting assembly.
From here, I tried switching the indicator connections incase I'd plugged them in the wrong sockets and restarting and got the same hit or miss 'click' or start.. .prob started 1 in 5 times.
Kept experimenting trying to start and it started making a load of new weird noises. Now it won't start at all.
Here is an audio recording of all the grunts it is making:

I charged batt over night and according to charger the batt is full. But still won't start. The lights do turn on.
IT IS DRIVING ME CRAZY!!



haha.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm not sure if I wired the indicators wrong which cause a problem somehow, or if its just coincidence.
A friend of mine thought the batt was fried, failing that the starter motor. Like I said, the lights turn on. So can I eliminate a flat or screwed battery?
I'd trade this switch for a kickstart any day!
Thanks in advance.
