Sounds like you both suspect the starter clutch drive.  In response to your question TOOLS, the "whir" sound is what I would always hear when I pressed the electric starter button.   In the past it would make this sound (more of an electric-type chugging sound) and then the bike would fire up. I don't think that sound was abnormal.   Now I just hear the sound and it won't turn over, and in the past few attempts, that sound grows dim as if there is not enough battery power to start the bike.  It's the electrical symptoms I'm hearing that puzzle me? I will have the battery tested once again to rule it out but it is a new battery.  ANy other thoughts?  Thanks again.
Cheers,
Adam
