So today out of curiosity I unplugged the clutch switch plug and tired to start the bike. Obviously nothing happened so I plugged it back in.
Went to then start the bike normally, in neutral, clutch in, flicked the kill switch, all normal noises until I pushed start and then I get nothing but (what I believe to be) starter relay clicking. The bike started perfectly and was running fine a hour previously. |

Hi and welcome. Check the terminals inside the actual clutch switch connector, they do get covered in road crud and may simply be dirty. Flush out with electrical cleaner. Maybe do the same with the kill switch too. Check battery terminals are clean and shiny, for some reason SVs are sensitive to this.

Welcome to the .org.
I'd be inclined to say if the solenoid is clicking then it's not the clutch or sidestand cutout switches at fault. Have a look at the solenoid with a meter and check what sort of voltage it's getting, and whether the current is getting as far as the starter motor.

If u unplugged the clutch switch I would unplug and replug several times. It could just be pin corrosion.
