The VN is not firing up at present. What I am getting is a rapid clicking under the tank.

This suggests coil. Any ideas. I am trying to find my clymer manual to get ideas but any help would be appreciated.

If you can see the tops of the mountain's it's going to rain.
If you can't - it's raining.

Clicking could be the solenoid clicking. Make sure your battery is fully charged.
