Starting problems...

Hoping someone can help me out with a little problem ive got with my otherwise lurvly 1000ss which is really winding me up and pushing me close to losing my sense of humour! Wheeled her out for a blast last weekend and at first she didnt start then after the third or fourth attempt the engine stopped turning over and all i got was an audible click on pushing the starter. Bought a very nice charger thinking the battery was flat (£44.99) and charged it up fitted it back on and just a click again. Checked all the fuses, rocked her back and forward in case the starter was stuck, still nothing. Bought a volt meter and battery is fine outputting over 13 volts so checked wiring over etc etc and nothing. All other electricals work fine (lights etc) so Im completely baffled.

Only option I have is to send her back to the garage in lincoln which is a real pain in the proverbials although as shes under warranty it wont cost me anything (apart from the train fare from P'boro to Lincoln of course to pick it up and the inconvenience of course). Anyway would love to avoid this so if you've got any ideas i could try i would be grateful to hear from you.

Cheers.
