05 Yamaha R6 help
I am looking for some help with a buddies 05 R6. It was running perfectly fine and was ridden everyday until this morning when it wouldn't start. When I put the key in turn it on, all the lights come on and the fuel pump kicks in. Once I click the starter button it makes a buzzing noise. Once I realease the button the fuel pump kicks in again. I took off the seat and noticed this little piece was buzzing and "vibrating" when I hit the starter key. Does anyone know what this part is or what the problem could be? It is located right next to the battery and has a white plastic cover over it, but I took that off for the pics.
(has a positive and negative and 2 forty amp fuses that are both still good. Fuses are also out in the pics due to I was checking them)

bingbingbing kinda... battery(+)-senlod-starter.. sounds like either the battery doesnt have enought to jump the starter over or the starter is locked up or or the motor is locked.. i was volt test the battery, u can take a srew driver and jump those 2 poles it should turn the motor over.. if it doesnt then either the starter is bad or the motor is locked up

Also, we hooked up the battery up to fast charger and the battery was charging up to about 10.3 volts and when the starter button was pressed it would go down in the 7's in volts. So should we replace the battery? or should the starter solenoid? or both? Thanks for the help guys

He means just jump the 2 leads with a screw driver to bypass the solenoid. Just take a metal screwdriver and touch the red and black wires together. Make sure the bike is in neutral and the fuel switch is on. If the bike starts, you have a bad solenoid...If it does not start, bad starter/battery/something else.
