A few things will come up but I am not the right one for it.
Load shed relay.
Starter relay.
Starter motor brushes/cleaning it.
All easy to check. If all the lights etc go out when you press the starter than that to me suggests load shed relay is working properly, its supposed to disconnect them all. Starter relay worth a check and so are the earths. One above the gear lever, some under the petrol tank, easy to get at.
I had issues like yours, so I cleaned out the starter motor and got it like new. Easy to get out and to sort and its worth doing anyway.
The ICU up at the headstock turned out to be my problem. I got a replacement from Motorworks for £50 and it cured the problem. However it could have been a dodgy connector to the ICU as opposed to the ICU itself. When I got the replacement I cleaned all the connectors until they were nice and shiny and connected it up, problem finally solved. So its worth taking out ICU and cleaning up the connectors but be gentle.
