sounds like your connects got muddy ... clean them off gently and try it again. Don't tap your starter either .. you can really bugger it up. A buddy of mine had starter trouble on his big bear (same engine really ..) and tapped it .. destroyed the rotor .. he was lucky and got one 2nd hand. If cleaning the connections around your starter relay don't work, then try bumping the starter position by pushing the quad while in gear (like jump starting) .. That could shift the pole off any bad spot that might be there and allow your starter to turn.

If that works then you need your starter rebuilt. Take it to an alternator/starter shop and they should fix it. That's the biggest thing I dislike on the Warrior is no secondary starting method.

Good luck!!

Glad to hear you got it going again .. now that it's dried off get yourself some spray silicone electrical sealant and coat your wires really good. That should help prevent the problem from reoccuring ..

I have encountered the problem with my Warrior too. Check the teminals on the battery. Depending on how old your battery is they may be corroded. Take a wire brush or grinder to clean them up to ensure a good connection is made. Also check that it is charged. Those are the only two reasons I have ever heard those noises..
