Re: starter motor not working and click coming from fuse box
Im guessing that the clicking is coming from the starter solenoid that is a classic symptom of a weak batteryor maybe a poor connection between battery and solenoid. If you short the large solenoi connections wi0a screwdriver the starter night turn the bike over in which care you could have faulty solenoid. But it is weak battery is my bet.
