Default Re: 65 K1000 305E Starter 'clunk'

I'd try Ken's list one at a time or you will never know what the problem was.
Number one is being very sure of all four battery contacts.
It sounds like the solenoid is firmly engaging, but perhaps only occasionally making electrical contact with the starter windings.
