Good day to you all. I've got a 2013 ninja 300 that has been sitting for a bit. I'm not entirely sure why, but for some reason it is failing to start. My first instinct was that the battery was deadish. After I put a charger on it though, it still isn't seeming to work. Basically when I turn the key, all the lights turn on strong, but when I press the ignition, they shut of and I hear a repeated clicking sound like the starter isn't getting enough power to turn over the engine. Also the fuel pump sounds like it's running normally. If anyone happens to have any ideas and would be so kind as to share them with me, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Even though you charged the battery, and it may show fully charged, it's bad.

If you checked the voltage when you hit the button you would see it drops off to next to nothing.

Get a new battery and fully charge it before installing and you should be good.
