Starter Issues: ´81 Yamaha XJ-750

Occasionally the starter on my Seca won’t turn over. The starter solenoid engages, I can hear it click. When it happenes, sometimes hitting the starter a few times with a closed fist fixes the problem. Today something new happened. While trying to start the bike the starter made sounds like the battery was dieing. It started strong then slowly the speed of the cranking began to decrease and it eventually stopped. The battery had a full charge and the lights stayed bright. Now I can’t seem to do anything to make the starter turn. Does anyone have an idea on this one?

Thanks all,

Matt
