I hope couldn't ride for almost 2yrs. been on the tender all that time. Took it off the tender in April put in the bike started right up.

take the battery to a battery store or an auto parts store where they can load test it. have them test it three times in a row. I have seen batteries test good two times back to back, then fail on the third.

You can also pull the solenoid cover and, with a plastic handle, push in firmly on the solenoid. If the starter spins up then you have a starter circuit issue somewhere. If it doesn't spin right up then you have a battery issue, likely, or possibly a starter issue.
