Starter relay
#1
My bike wont start! The starter relay has the red cable connected from the battery but the black cable has come loose. Does any one know what bolt size I need to re-attach. Attached a picture to make more sense.

Disconnect the battery negative lead first to prevent accidentally shorting the positive to the frame

why do i have a feeling that problem took a fair while to find, blaming clutch and stand switches first

I had a guess it was the starter relay straight away because it was ticking when the bikes turned on

Is that a bit of burning on the relay where the bolt was? If the bolt was loose it would cause a bad connection and high resistance and that causes heat and possible burning or arcing. If it is burnt give it a clean.
