sometimes when i hit the starter button on my quad it just clicks.sometimes a couple times then it fires over with no problem.im getting juice to the starter(don't have a voltmeter)it is what is clicking.when it does turn over it turns over like normal.is there a common problem i could look for(solenoid,starter clutch etc....)

Sorry I can't be of more help but when mine started doing that, soon after it never would start again and it's still in the shop waiting for a new bearing. Been atleast 2 months since I rode it last. Starting to get worried here too. Got a race the 23rd and it doesn't look like I'll make it.

Mine was a silanoid to.


Take a wire or screw driver and touch the pos terminal on the batery and the starter terminal.It should crank over.If it dont you got more than a silanoid problem.:hammer:
