Is the headlight burning brightly when the ignition is on? If so, when pressing the start button does it dim right out? If it does then you may have had a faulty battery installed or one that does not have sufficient charge. A new battery really needs an overnight charge @ 2 amps for at least 8 hours prior to use.

Starter motors are generally 'high milage' items. In my case 40,000 miles and still going strong.
