Great, I will. Only issue is I don't recall seeing any such "small wire to 
ground".
I will go grab the Clymer and begin my search unless someone can enlighten me.
Thanks
Mike

Have you checked with a voltmeter to see if voltage is present at the solenoid 
circuit (the small wire to ground) when the key is on, the bike is in neutral, 
the kill switch is off, and the starter button is depressed?  Jumping the 
solenoid only shows that either the solenoid OR the starter circuit is faulty, 
not which one.

Good news. When I jumper around the solenoid the starter turns over even with 
the junk battery.
So now I need a solenoid, the battery cable from the battery to the solenoid is 
junk too, so I have to get one made, make one myself or break down and order 
that too. The prices for the terminal covers seems a tad high,  does anyone 
have any recommendations for cheap but safe alternatives to solenoid and cable 
/ covers replacements? I typically buy the parts from the local Powersports 
shop but this loks like its gonna run me well over $100. I'll start checking 
Ebay tonight for a solenoid I guess.
