Hi everyone, UK rider, 2008 Classic (US spec model but was never exported to the US).

[Rocketman 111]

Got the infamous “click click” when starter button operated.
Seems to be more help on here than any other forum.
Waiting for a starter relay to come into stock at Triumph dealer.
If that doesn’t cure it I think next step will be the clutch switch assembly.

If it is clicking that means that all of the safety components are working like side stand, clutch switch, starter button, nuetral switch.
Ti.e to use a volt meter at the starter relay.
Now you can remove the starter relay and use a jumper wire number 30 to number 87 and that will bypass all safetys including the nuetral switch.you can also check voltage on relay at number 30.

More than likely you have a voltage problem..
Can be anywhere from ignition. To the starter solenoid..
Also before the starter relay is activated (most of the early bikes)had the lights going through that relay so you might be able to use the head lights to see if they are working good.
Do a few checks and then you can ask more questions

Ps if you are losing voltage there is a way to piggyback relays.
