Starter bad?????

My battery seems fine but my starter attempts to start then won’t turn over. And now it just clicks….i rode it yesterday for about an hour and today it won’t start. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thank you

Have your battery load tested, it sounds like a battery issue.

IF the battery passes a Load Test, pull the starter solenoid cover off and inspect the plunger and contacts.
