Do you have the security system installed? If so as mentioned earlier the battery in the fob is probably bad, especially if they are the original batteries. You can get a new battery at any Radio Shack or electronics store. Had this happen to me when I went to pick up my bike. The guy I bought it from never changed the battery. Bikd started right up once and the next time we went to start it the dire tionals just blinked and the red key light came on in the speedo. He bought another battery and she fired right up. I now change the battery every year and I set my personal security code so if the battery dies again I can still get the bike started...

well if you have a good charge.. no key fob as the others have suggested.. then you have an internal problem bro.. and short of the right hand tools and a complete service manual for your year of bike.. it will need professional help.. costly at times I know.. but sometimes you have to bite that bullet..

When I look around on the net and I found this thread.
LINK.
He said sound like "clack-clack-clack". I think mine is the same sound. Everybody say its battery. I will recharge my battery tonight and I will try tomorrow. In the thread, he said, he got 11.9v and mine is 12.52v.

you dont have a car or truck or know some one that does?
are you serious? get jumper cables , take the battery cover off, connect the red to the red terminal and make sure the black is grounded good.. have them rev just a little and try your button..
