Xtreme, I had the same problem with my 2001. Take your seat off and the black box behind your battery, the CDI. Tap on it and she'll pop right off. I cleaned the hell out every connection to the Box. The only thing that worked was smackin it with the screwdriver. Good luck.

I had the positive terminal come loose multiple times. My last "no start" problem was when I installed the engine (when the tranny imploded) and did'nt attach a wire correct and smoked my relay. Mine had the clicking as you speak of coming from the relay and the fuse was perfect. I could still push start and ride fine. I changed the relay and all was fine....about $30.

Mine is dead at the shop right now with those exact conditions. The starter spun as if it wasnt engaging, I pull started it and on the way back to camp , it died, now nadda,it just makes a large clicking sound at the relay, but I checked my fuses, my shop was thinking starter or strarter clutch ?? You guys think the relay ???

No, because it was spinning making the dreaded whirling noise and wouldnt engage the strter or should I say the strter wasnt engaging, checked bike @ camp, piston would turn over , at least it wasnt the crank, this is my second one, the first died a horrible grinding noise.
