82 FXR Won't turn over
Hoping you guys can help direct me with this. So far I've just been chasing a rabbit. ok...Hit starter and hear slow grinding noise...engine tries to turn over but won't. Check battery (new) and showing 12. Check starter, it was dragging. Replace both starter and solenoid. Still won't turn over...just drags as though battery is about to give out. Thought that maybe it's the switch. Tried jumping from the starter to the solenoid. Nothing. What have I overlooked or what am I doing wrong? I would appreciate the help. Thanks.

you said you replaced the starter and the soleniod -- they were New or used ?????
did you remove all the battery connections and checked the ends for loosness as the wire may have overheated and un done its self ?????-- did you check the batterys chassis ground UNDER the bike it has a ground strap the goes from the frame to one of the lower bolts in the inner primary -- < THIS ---

does your bike have a ford car type relay that is connected between the battery and the soleniod ????
if not your main battery cable or the ground is not staying connected to full battery voltage OR the battery has a grounded plate and shows 12 volts but under load is craps out - did you have the battery load tested like a autozone ?????
