Motorcycle won't start. Charged battery, still won't start. Starter spins but doesn't engage. Help.

Sounds like the Bendix is stuck. I think your going to have to pull the starter out. After you get it out, hold it tight and hit the starter (button). The gear on the end of the shaft should move outward then back when you let off. If not, either it is stuck or the spring is broken. Try that 1st then come back.
