Last year I posted about my bike not starting when it was cold. Everyone including myself thought it was the battery. I held out and waited till this spring to purchase the battery. All summer and fall I rode without issues. This spring I started with the starting issues.  I went and purchased a 20BS gel battery and I thought all was well until this morning. It wouldn't start again..... I heard a sound like the starter spinning but not engaging the flywheel. This is the same sound as last year so I know it has nothing to do with the battery.  My question now is should I be looking at the started or the solenoid?  Has anyone else has this type of problem.  If I try it a few time the bike will usually start.  My wife is getting very cranky about putting money into it... I also need tires and brakes this year.....  :'(
