Did you do some work on it or has it just been standing? If it's just been standing it could be either a fueling issue or battery issue. Like the post earlier, check the terminal are tight on the battery, check you have fuel in the tank and that it's on the on position under the tank and give it ago. Let us know if you hear the bike cranking over or just the ticking noise again. If it's not cranking over with a new battery you may be looking at a starter motor issue. Good luck.Hi I used the bike last monday 3rd of june had to bump start it twice whilst i was out on it no work has been done on it and the bike is never left standing up its used almost everyday.
terminals are tight
full tank of fuel
in the on position
did manage to get it started with a bump start this afternoon left it to tick over for 5 mins turned it off then on again tried the button but just got the clicking noise again put bike back in garage put sidepanels ,seat etc back on tried the button again and it fired,now leaving it to see what it does in the morning
