ok so i bought this 98 300ex from a friend and i rebuilt the engine i go to start the bike all i get is solenoid clicking so i jump start it it starts fine i take jumper cables off let it run for about 15minutes let it warm up moderate revving and i shut it off to move nuetral safety wire away from exhaust pipe i go to start it without jumpers and it turns the engine over maybe 2-3 times and goes right back to clicking so i check the batery voltage its perfect so i check voltage drop across solenoid next to nothing but still the only way i can start it is with jumper cables need any info/ideas going riding tomarrow and dont have booster buddy so need it fixed
p.s. i used 2 volt meters so that isnt problem
also i drained battery to 10.5 volts and charged it to make sure it really was charged
could it be a bad battery its at least 1-1.5 years old minimum
