It could be a number of thing,s from charging issue,to wiring issue, would start by checking the battery first you will require a multi meter to do this ,should be 12volts or above.

Check connections at starter and also worthwhile checking earth from the bodywork to the engine / gearbox . A good battery should normally be between 12.4 to 12.6v at rest .

sounds like either bad connection on starter motor or just a faulty starter motor itself if you have had battery tested
