My sporty wont start. Just clicks. Cleaned all grounds and all leads. Same thing. Battery load tested fine. I jumped directly from the battery hot side to the starter post same thing. I have read it could be just the solonoid needs a cleaning? Can I remove it from the bike without removing the starter?

I have a 05 XL1200C since the bike is just about 12 years old I accept the Idea of replacing parts , due to age and wear . sometimes a newer part may be more advanced in tech . I have learned that aftermarket thing like levers, saddle bags, ECT... are ok but when it comes to the motor genuine HD parts is the way to go.
yes you can take the side off of the solenoid and clean/replace the contacts and actuator.
no need to remove starter or the solenoid assembly
pretty easy to do and be sure to DISCO the battery b4 you start
