All I get is a click. nothing else. I checked the switch for the kickstand and it seems fine.

There is another guy that has a bike and he parks right next to me his is having the same problem (new Handa sport bike.). We managed to get his started by push starting.

My questions are simple. Is my started dead?
If so how much will it cost me?
And how bad a time am I in for if I try to change it myself? (Note: I SUCK at fixing mechanical things.)

Any help would be great!
WHy suspect the starter? If it was OK before the battery change, and then didn't work AFTER the battery change, why would you suspect a starter?
