Kill switch is on the right handle bar, but even when on you should not get the 'click'. Just the lights on. Even though you replaced the battery, did you fully charge it?. Check the connections the starter again, check your fuses.

its also very possible that your battery cable, or one of the wires somewhere is corroded and damaged as a result, preventing the starter from recieving the proper voltage, which could be your problem.

@Deepsixed9 Hi and welcome to the forum. If your engine looks like this section of the starter drive, then you don't fix it. You get another engine. Ebay is going to be your friend on this one.

This is what can happen when you have hydrolocked engine. Caused by leaky petcock and carbs, which drips petrol into engine when sitting. Then when starter tries to spin engine, it can't compress cylinders filled with petrol. That mounting-point for starter-clutch takes brunt of force trying to spin engine and cracks. In luckier cases, it strips teeth off ring-gear, which can be repaired. But not engine-block.
