smoke245 is on a distinguished road
will not start

Guys, I need some help. I just got back from a 2 week vacation and my 2005 1200 custom will not turn over. I had the motorcycle on a trickle charger the time I was gone. I have cleaned all the connectors thinking that may be it. The battery is new. When I hit the ignition switch, it just clicks at the starter.

Make sure to check all the grounds, especially at the starter and also where the ground lead attaches to the engine case. I had a loose/corroded connection there that caused starter issues for a month before I figured it out.
