91' Yamaha Starter Problems

[gunmunky]

I have a 91' Yamaha Moto 4 350 and now when I try to start it I hear a fast clicking noise but the engine doesn't turn over. Do I need a new starter or is there maybe an easier fix? Where is a good place to get a starter if that's what I need? Thanks for any help!

Sounds like a weak battery to me. Try to start it with a jump and see if the starter works.

Anytime I've seen this on any of my machines it was either a bad battery or a loose battery connection.

Good idea. I have a trickle charger hooked up right now but I will hook my regular charger up and see if that works. Thanks for the quick replies.

Had the charger hooked up and tried it last night and it started!!! Thanks for the help!
