motorcycle help...

i duno if anyone will know.. but its worth a shot..

so, while trying to get my bike out of a moving truck it fell over.. cause the kick stand wasn't out properly. I've dropped it before and was ok afterward. But this time, it would start..

the bike just kinda makes a clicking noise when i try to start it. The clicking sound seems to be coming from a grey box by the battery. I'm not sure exacly what the grey box is, as i'm very unfamilar with the mechanics of the bike. The headlights are also no longer working (not the fuse), not sure if that is related or not..

any help is appreciated :)

thanks

The battery could be nearly dead and have just enough juice to power the relay which you hear clicking.

d0h!!! that sux man... do you see any battery juice coming out of the battery? that could be the problem...be careful with the acid, it'll burn your eye off. I'd also just re-tighten the negative and positive poles on the battery, sometimes those things come loose. Spray some WD40 on it to help breakthrough any oxidation.

i have a tricle charger for my bike battery since i'm in the east coast and have to store my bike for most of the winter months.. should i try to recharge the battery and see what happens?

if its the battery.. what is the clicking sound coming from?
*edit: oops.. just read you post.. forget my question

yeah go ahead. or you can just check the voltage on the battery.

Pour some "tussin" on it.
