1st determine if the click is what you thought. It might be a starter relay clicking but not starting. Pull all the plugs and hit starter again. See if fuel blows out the plug holes. PS: Push it outside for this first.
Low battery voltage can cause clicks.

Sandy has it covered.  Particularly about putting the bike outdoors before you spin that engine with the plugs out. cooldude

Good answer Chrisj,  Grin ever think he did search and still wanted answers?  This is the second time this week I have seen you tell someone to search it. If it is that much trouble for you to answer questions why even post in the first place, just makes you look like a dick.

The other guy thanked me because he found the wealth of knowledge that was waiting for him so it didn't have to be all retyped.  Its regretful that you thought I was being a dick, and as far as posts that would not have to be written because they are pointless I have one highlighted above, yours.

Once he does a very easy search he will have more than enough to proceed.  Its not that hard

You are absolutely right Chrisj.  But it still makes you look like a dick.

lol.....well hopefully a good looking one then.

The stuff is saved and searchable for a reason. 

I'll be the dick this time, someone else can be it next time

And, to the OP once you see how much information is already there waiting for you,  you will understand why I didn't think it needed to be retyped
