My bike is having startup issues, and I'm not sure if it is the battery or another issue. My search didn't find any existing threads on the topic, though I'm sure there are, so apologies in advance.
The symptoms have been that I've followed the startup procedure and when I've hit the button to start it up it would just click once and not start, but when I hit it again it would start fine. I didn't think much of it apart from I'll have it looked at at the next servicing. Then it became 2 or 3 clicks before the bike would finally start up as normal. Sunday afternoon it took a good minute of button pushing, then this morning it just wouldn't turn over. The gauges do their calibration thing as normal and the lights all work when I put the key in, which makes me wonder if it is more than just the battery.
One final thing to mention is my bike sat unridden for about 2 months while my shoulder healed, and it was pretty dead by the time I got it charged up. It is also the original battery, my bike is an '07. Probably could use a new battery anyway, but could this issue be spark plug or fuse related?
And FWIW I have seen this thread, and it is similar to my issue but not identical:

Through trial and error I found it was the spark plugs, they've now been replaced as well as the battery.
Thanks for the help suggestions viewings! ;)
