Starter motor?

[dbutlin]

Could someone please help?
Pretty sure i have a starter problem. When i hit the starter botton i get a ticking or buzzing noise coming from the fuse box under the seat. And the starter is not turning over. Bike is a ZZR1100D1 It has been sitting for about 4 weeks (won't stop Raining).
Can the starter be repaired?
i have tried tapping it with socket extension.
Cheers Daniel

Start with the battery. If that is fully charged move to the next step.

Battery is fine, have had it on charge all day and lights are beaming.

Doesnt mean its fine. Got a multimeter? If so try and turn it over and see what voltage it says.

Otherwise on a zx6 I had it was a similar issue. A hill assisted clutch start turned her over as it seemed it had compression lock up and from then on it started first go with the starter. Try this too

Battery could of dropped a cell. Had that happen to a work ute last week. All of a sudden it just wouldn't start. Couldn't jump start it.

Thanks Guys, i'll try the multimeter tomorrow. It's a pain in arse having to pull the thing to bits whenever you need access to the battery.
Cheers
