If it's a Harley-Davidson Sportster you're referring to. I'd suggest trying a Harley-Davidson Forum:

what exactly are you looking for? overhaul,diagnostics If you know its the starter and cost is your concern you can usually find somthing aftermarket that will do the job for less than parts and time for a rebuild on a factory unit

One other thought, you could also have bad spark plug caps or even a partially fouled plug. If you have fancy flashing plug caps they can cause poor spark. At any rate this would be inexpensive and easy thing to try. If new plugs do not help, carry the old ones as spares in your tool kit.

Depends on the click. If it's a soft click, it could be a bad starter relay. If it's a loud click, it's probably the starter solenoid. The starter relay used to be mounted on the backside of the oil tank but they may have moved it behind the triangular plate on the left side of the bike. To determine the problem, look at the end of the starter and you'll see a single small wire plugged on the solenoid just above the five sided plate that is held on by three 3mm bolts. Remove this wire and connect a test light or a volt meter to it. Turn the switch on and press the start button. If the light lights up or the meter shows battery voltage, the starter relay is good. If not, replace the relay.

If the click is a loud click, the contacts in the solenoid may be burned. Remove the five sided plate and remove the plunger and spring. Look at the two large copper contacts. Are they badly burned? If so,you need to replace them. You can order the parts from Harley or most aftermarket sources sell them.

Good Luck

It is possible for the ANTITHEFT security system to disable your starter from the ignition. Read about it on this link

Trans uses the primary fluid for lubrication. As long as the primary fluid is at the proper level, all is good.

93 HD Sportster 1200 will not start!

Have you tried to bypass the starter button/switch? Use a heavy jumper wire to go between the starter terminal and the positive battery terminal. Turn the key to "On" position, make sure "Run/Off" switch is turn on. Make sure bike is in neutral. I've started guys bikes with coat hangers before when they lost had trouble with the starter button. If the bike starter turns over, you'll at least have a place to start looking for the issue. Also you said you checked the battery, what was the voltage?

Harley sportster 2001 starter removal ,it just clicks

You must have a fully charged battery.If you are just getting a click your battery proably doesn't have enough voltage to energize the starter relay.Check the battery voltage and if that is good 12.6 volts or more do a voltage drop test to the switch circuit( battery pos. to relay terminal 86) with switch on and starter button pushed the meter should read 1.0 vdc max if that is good black meter lead to relay terminal of solenoid again read voltage then engergize the system with only 1.0 vdc drop good luck
