Well I feel silly now! Get home and start tracing wires from the ignition and battery. Can't find anything that looks sketchy. Check the battery with the volt meter and it's 12.3. Check the cable to the starter, it looks good. Decide that I will use a trick that I used on my 64 Ford, I jump across the solenoid with a screwdriver. Nothing. Take the cable off the solenoid and touch it straight to the battery, nothing. Check the battery again and it's 12.3 volts. I'm beginning to think I have a starter problem but I thought I would do one last thing to rule out the battery, I jumped it. Started right up!! Did I mention it had 12.3 volts the whole time! Apparently it had the volts but not the amps. I don't know how old the battery is but it's at least 4 years old. That's how long I have had the bike. I guess it's time for a new one.
I have been working on cars and motorcycles for over 30 years and this a new one on me!
