Bike wont start and makes a clicking sound?

[Paul W]

almost flat battery ???????

do the lights go off when u try to start it. If so the batt is goosed.

If not, then it sound like the starter solenoid is OK, but the the starter motor is goosed and jammed.

Rill it done hill, jump on on, ignition on, clutch in, put it in 3rd, left clutch out, should start.

Check that battery is charging at about 14.5 V.

If it is, but still will not start, try jump starting off a car or another bike,

is still no good, then its the starter motor,

I would say the battery but you said the lights work. Maybe an alternator?
