Default Bike wont start?

Had the bike sitting for awhile wouldnt start or charge. Went out and bought the same battery duralast gold ready to ride, hooked up jumper cables it started and i took it for a ride. Got back home and shut it off and tried to start it up again and it wont turnover whats the problem? Never had a problem with it intil it sat for a couple months.

Why did you need jumper cables to start it with a new battery? Some department store batteries require charging before use. Could even be old stock...

The clicking points to low voltage.

i put the new battery in and it still wouldn't start i forgot to say i did put it on a trickle charge and let it sit over night but still wouldnt start so i jumped it the battery i got said it didn't need an additional charge. I checked it with a mulit meter and it would be at 12v but still wont start Could it just be a bad battery ?

Could be. Look and see how low the voltage gets while attempting to crank it.

I have an 03 cbr 600rr and i bought it used... Didnt think much of it. But like you i ran into some battery issues ... I know you probably already heard tbis but check if your recharge system is working if it is then its your battery .... Trust me man i had the same issue ... But i dropped 700 on a new stator and that lil module that changes ac to dc....when i continued to have problems i found out that the brand new battery i bought (not even a week old) didnt have enough cranking amps ... Havent had a problem with it sence for charveing anyways
