Hi, Ive got a Honda TRX350 2002 that wont start. Turn the key, and the dash lights up ok, then pressing the electronic start and just get a clicking noise. I've replaced the battery, but still the same clicking noise on pressing the start button. The noise appears to be coming from the battery itself, as putting my finger on it, you can feel the vibration through the casing. Ive tried cycling up and down gears ok. Definitely appears to be in Neutral, as nothing happens at all trying to start in gear. No other issues with the bike. Last time out was running and idling fine. Starter motor poked maybe? Or starter solonoid? Any thoughts how i can test?

The clicking noise (sounds like a machine gun) is a defective starter solenoid, the (+) battery cable goes to it.If the engine were locked up, the starter motor broken, or it had a dead battery, the solenoid would click once.
