Sometimes...!@#$%^

I thinken...since there was a voltage drop when I hit the switch and the battery is only a couple of months old...the starter switch or the kill switch is shiesten the bed.....

if it doesn't turn over next time you try it .... chase the wire from the starter back up to the starter relay, ck that ...... you can get a replacement at the auto store .....

Everyone should buy a cheap multimeter. You can get one from Harbor Freight for about $10.00. Then, when you have a problem, there are enough people on this board to guide you through to finding the problem.

for some reasonable thinkers to come in?  Seriously Iggy, check all the connections, I'm pretty sure you will find an issue with one of them. Good luck.

I would take the cables off the battery and clean with a wire brush. Chech the ground wire at the other end. If you voltage show's enough it may be a contact issue's. The Florida humidity is terrible on these bikes. The wires going into the started relay grab them end push them into the socket. Good luck Iggy

A-#1 most likely culprit (as others have noted) battery terminal connections. Even if they feel tight and appear clean...they are suspect. remove/clean/replace/move on
