Default honda 300ex part 2

ok i hooked everything up....NOTHING!!!
I tried to start it by pushing the electric start button, that didnt work so i tried to start it by using a screwdriver by touching the solenoid, nothing.
Im pretty much clueless AGAIN!!!
The batteries good, I know that for sure.
I hoping the solenoid that came in today is good from what the guy said. But you never know. I figured out that i could get one cheap in town so maybe i'll buy one and if that dont work take it back for a refund i guess.

I got all different wiring. So what do you guys think whats wrong with it???
I just really want to get this thing running!!!
Im just getting tired of working on it. Its been very cold for the last few days (yesterday was -2 to -3 degrees all day, today was from -2 to 3 degrees).

But please reply back thinking of what you thinks whats wrong with it!!!
Thanks,

Found the problem!!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
I started reading online and i seen that somebody said that they tapped on there starter while trying to turn it over and it worked.
So i tried to turn it over and i tapped on the starter, Walla, it turned over.
It wasnt very strong though. it turned over for maybe a couple seconds then stopped so i tapped on it again and it started to turn over then stopped.
Do i need a new starter???

well it fires up for like a second when i try to start it but then it'll just die. i keep doing it and it keeps doing the same thing. U think i should clean the carb? i already put a new plug and new gas.
