Starter Issue
I have a 2000 Ninja 500r, 2 time in the last week when I try to start it all that happens is a very quiet click coming from somewhere near the fuse box. I can push start it to get it going, and the ignition issue will be cleared up for the rest of the day. I don't think it's the battery since the lights function properly and the voltage on the battery is reading correctly. What would be the next thing I should check?

RE: Starter Issue
That def. sounds like a battery issue. Take the battery to napa or autozone and have it load tested. You can get full voltage out of the battery when you throw a voltmeter on it, and even have your lights work, but if you don't have sufficient current (amps) then you won't get your starter to turn over.
Had a long time passed since the last time you rode the bike before each time you just got a click?
Don't know your experience with motorcycles, so don't be offended by this question, but do you turn the bike completely off? I've heard that turning the key off but leaving the ignition switch on can drain a battery.
