This video saved me a lot of time 🙏🏿🙏👏🏽 however the stater is located the other side. The side you indicated on the video is were the clutch basket is located.
Dude your a fucking Legend! Saved me alot of hassle and money taking it to the mechanic! CHEERS! I ended up replacing both battery and relay starter, static clicking noise came from startr relay, but wasnt so sure if the battery was also the issue, did it on my m109r 2013
Great video man I know this type of thing with batteries for both cars and bikes but just stumbled across this vid. They are awesome bikes indeed and glad the fix was easy for you...be safe man... :)
I have boulevard c50 with new battery and it’s doing exactly that clicking sound, I replace the relaid but problem continued so I’m ma have the battery tested, thanks 🙏
That's good information, but you need to learn a couple of things. As previously mentioned, CCA stands for cold cranking amps. Also, look up how to change a battery. You never tighten or loosen the positive side with the negative side connected because if you hit ground you could spark and blow up the battery. You also need to tighten it up with more than a screwdriver. I'm not saying put the hulk on it, but it just won't be tight enough to be reliable just using a screwdriver.
What happens is the low power of the battery causes the starter relay to click in and out, most often not enough charge in the battery to wind the motor over, so the relay disengages . Always do the simple checks to avoid costly mistakes. Trying continuously to start it just drags power out until there is not enough to even activate the starter relay. These are fairly modern bikes with good electrics. 1st. Charge the battery up fully and try to start the bike. 2nd. It doesn't start after charging the battery. To confirm If the battery is weak, connect jumper cables to bike (while there is some charge in the battery) and see if it starts. If it then starts, well, there is your answer, battery is just too weak and or too old. Unless it has just lost power from sitting for a period of time and the battery will charge up again after a good run. This is pretty common if you do not ride regularly because of weather conditions or you may have more than 1 bike too.
I just replaced my starter. It was dragging and getting to the point. That it would turn over at all. The techs at the shop. Weren't sure if it was the starter. I gave them a new starter and relay. Now the problem is all gone.
from having this issue so many times I already knew it was the battery...glad you fixed the issue.

Thank you. Only video I found that shows the location of that stupid thing. Watched like 5 b4
Cheers bro, looking forward to no more clicking noises 👍😊😎
Thank you! I've been looking for an answer for a week for my bike's power issue and this was the answer!

4 weeks old. Did you try returning it and ask for a replacement under warrant? It may have just been a one off issue with that battery!
How did you go long term. Did the new acid battery keep charging ok?

So it can be battery? So clicking sound comes on its own? Even if key is not in ignition?

Question my m109 cranks and the engine turns over but it doesn’t start I’m using a booster. What you think it could be??
What year is yours
Thank you!
CCA… Cold Cranking Amps
Have to wait 4 weeks for new battery? Wow that sucks.
